同學們,這次咱們來談一談第三人稱單數的問題。
首先,咱們要搞清楚第一、第二、第三人稱各是什么。第一人稱就是“我”和“我們”。第二人稱是“你”和“你們”。第三人稱單數是“他”、“她”和“它”,復數則是“他們”。
中文中第三人稱單數的三個“他”寫法不一樣,讀音卻相同。但在英語中,三個“他”既有不同的讀音,也有不同的寫法,分別是he, she, it。在第三人稱后不能使用動詞的原形,而要在相應的動詞后加s或es。 請看下面的例詞:look-looks play-playswatch-watcheswash-washesgo-goes。
有些時候,句子中或文章中并沒有直接出現(xiàn)he, she, it,而會出現(xiàn)諸如My father, our teacher, Yang Ling 等,這些也屬于第三人稱單數的范疇,所以其后的動詞也要加s或es。
第三人稱后的“有”動詞也要有相應的變化,應該用has,而不是have。請看例句:
1. My father likes playing chess. 我爸爸喜歡下棋。
2. Our English teacher works very hard. 我們的英語老師工作很努力。
3. Yang Ling has three beautiful dresses. 楊玲有三條漂亮的連衣裙。
好了,今天我們就說到這里,同學們,不要以為第三人稱單數簡單,里面可還有不少學問呢。下次我們再來說一說疑問句中的第三人稱單數。
練一練:將下列短文用第三人稱重寫,并回答問題
I’m Ted. I am from the UK. I am a primary student. At school, I study English, Maths, Science and Art. I like Art very much. I have six lessons a day. I have lunch at school.
At the weekends, I often go and play football with my friends. Sometimes I go climbing. In the evening, I play the piano for my parents.
I have a happy family. My father is a doctor. He usually works late. My mother is a teacher. She teaches Art in a middle school. I love them and they love me too.
Ted is
1. Where is the boy from?
