my notebook
1 In
spring,the weather starts to get
warm.春
天,天气开始暖和起来。
in
spring意为“在春天”。季节前用介词in。
in spring泛指“在春天”,而in
the spring则特
指在某个春天。
start to do
something意为“开始做某事”。
又如:
Plants start to
grow.植物开始生长。
get
warm意为“变暖”。这里的get是系动
词,后接形容词,意为“变得”。又如:
When winter comes,it always gets very
cold.冬天到来时,天气总是变得很冷。
2 The wind blows
gently.风微微地吹着。
gently是副词,意为“温柔地;
微微地”,
修饰动词blow。主阅读篇章中还有类似的句子。
如:
The
Sun shines brightly.阳光明媚。
gently是由形容词gentl
e变化而来:
gentle(adj.)+ly(此处变e为y)→gently(adv.);
brightly是由形容词bright变化而来:
bright(adj.)+ly-→brig
htly(adv.)。副词常常用
来修饰前面的动词。
3 It often
rains.天常常下雨。
这里的it指代“天气”。又如:
It’s
sunny today.今天天气晴朗。
It usually snows
heavily in Harbin in
winter.冬天,哈尔滨经常下大雪。
4
Everything turns green.一切都变绿了。
turn
green意为“变绿”。turn也是系动词,
后接形容词,意为“变得”。又如:
His hair turns grey.他的头发变得灰白了。
5—It is
exciting to take a trip in
spring.春天
出去旅行真是令人兴奋。
本句中使用了“It
is+形容词+动词不定式”
的结构。这个句型常用来表达人们对某一事件的
看法或感受。其具体内容,详见第67页本单元
的Grammar部分。
take a trip意为“旅游;去旅行”。如:
Would you like
to take a trip to Japan this
year? 你今年想去日本旅游吗?
6 Many people like to go to the beach and
swim in the sea.很多人都喜欢去海边,到海里
游泳。
like to do something意为“喜欢做某事;想
要做某事”,与want to
do something very much
意思相近。
【比较】like to do something与like doing
something:
当表示“喜欢做某事”,而且以前就喜欢,
还可能持续下去时,用like
doing something。如:
He likes cooking in
his house.他喜欢在
家里做饭。
当表示“想要做某事”时,用like
to do
something。如:
He likes to cook in
his house.他想在家做
饭吃。
go to the
beach意为“去海滩;去海边”。
in the
sea意为“在海里”。
7 Leaves turn brown,red or yellow
and start
falling from the
trees.树叶变成了褐色、红色或
是黄色,开始从树上掉落。
start
doing something意为“开始做某事;
着手做某事”。如:
When
did it start raining? 什么时候开始
下雨的?
【比较】start doing something与start to do
something:
start doing something和start
to do
something在大多情况下可以替换使用,意思相
同。例如上句可改写为:
When did it start to rain? 什么时候开始
下雨的?
但是,以下几种情况,两者不能互换使用:
(1)当我们谈论一项长期的或习惯性的活
动时,常用start doing
something。如:
How old were you when you
first started
playing the piano? 你几岁开始弹钢琴?
试比较:
She sat down at the piano and
started to
play.她在钢琴前坐下,开始弹奏了起来。
(2)start若是进行时态,后面不用doing
形式。如:
I am starting to cook the dinner.我正要
开始做饭。
(3)start之后出现的动词如果涉及感情或
思想,只能用to do。如:
I
started to understand what he really
wanted.我开始明白他真正想要的是什么。
8 It is nice to go
on a picnic at this time of
year because the
weather is cool and
dry.一年中
的这个时候出去野餐真是太棒了,因为天气凉爽
而干燥。
go
on a picnic意为“去野餐”。如:
Would you like to go
on a picnic this
Sunday morning?
你愿意这个星期天上午去野
餐吗?
at this time of
year意为“在每年的这个时
候”。注意:在这个短语中,year前没有冠词,
也不能加
each和every。如:
There is a flower
show at this time of
year in the
city.每年的这个时候这个城市都会
举办花展。
9 Children love
winter because they love to
play in the
snow.孩子们喜欢冬天,因为他们喜
欢在雪地里玩耍。
love to do
something与like to do
something的意思和用法相同,可互换使用。
【思考】你能举例说说love to do
something与love
doing something的区别吗?
in the
snow意为“在雪地里”。如:
Alan watched Ann dancing
in the
snow.艾伦看着安在雪中跳舞。
10 It is
interesting to make snowmen.堆雪人
是件有趣的事儿。
make a snowman意为“堆(一个)雪人”,
复数形式为make snowmen。如:
Children enjoy making snowmen in
winter。孩子们喜欢在冬天里堆雪人。
1 1 People usually
spend time with their
relatives during the
Spring Festival.在春节期
间,人们通常都是和亲戚一起度过。
spend time with somebody意为“与某人
一起度过时光”。如:
I usually spend my free
time with my
best
friend,Tom.我通常和我最好的朋友汤姆
一起度过闲暇时光。
during the Spring
Festival意为“在春节
期间”。during后常常接“一段时间”。又如:
I will visit my grandparents during the
summer
holidays.暑假里我要去看望爷爷奶奶。
阅读技巧-------词汇分类
将词汇进行分类是记忆词汇的好方法。在
这个单元的主阅读篇章中,出现了许多形容词。
如:b
rown, cold, cool, dry, exciting, green, hot,
interesting, nice, red, snowy, warm, wet,
yellow。
如果我们能够将这些词进行分类,记忆单词就
会变得十分容易。如:
颜色:brown, red, yellow, green
温度:cold,
cool, hot, warm
天气:dry,wet,snowy
心情/感觉:exciting,interesting,nice
我们还可以造些句子使这些词汇的记忆,变得
更加容易。
颜色: In
autumn, green leaves turn brown,
red and yellow.
温度:Spring is warm, summer
is hot, autumn
is cool and winter is cold.
天气:Is it dry or wet when it is snowy in
winter?
心情感觉:It is excitinginterestingnice
to
play in the snow.

听有关季节的描述时,你需要关注:
颜色:由于要做图片对比练习,关注听力文字
中提及的颜色对于你完成练习有很大的帮助。 <

素。关注冷热、干湿等天气情况的词汇,能帮助
你顺利地完成填空的练习。
月份:不同的地区四季的起讫时间不尽相同,
特别是南北半球。
地处南半球的澳大利亚和我们
的季节正好相反。此外,在做练习前,想一想自

Grammar
my notebook
A1 using
adjectives before nouns形容词作定
语
1形容词是“描述人物、地方、物品或状况”
的词汇。
形容词常常放在名词前,作定语
(attributive),用来修饰名词。如:
Children like watching interesting
cartoons.孩子们喜欢看有趣的动画片。
People don t like
to walk through hot and
busy streets in
summer.夏天,人们不喜欢穿过
炎热而繁忙的夏天,人们不喜欢穿过炎热而繁忙
的街道。
在第一个句子中,形容词interesting作定
语,修饰名词cartoons。
.
在第二个句子中,形容词hot和busy均修
饰名词streets,也是定语。
‘
2形容词常常由名词转换而来。
(1)有些形容词是名词加-y构成的。如:
wind-→windy(
cloud→cloudy(多云的)
但是有些需要双写最后一个字母,再加
-y。如:
sun→sunny(阳光明媚的) fog→
foggy(有雾的)
(2)有些形容词是名词加-ful构成的。如:
care→careful(小心的;仔细的) use→
多风的)
useful(有用的)
以辅音字母加Y结尾的名词,要先将y
变成i,再加-ful。如:
beauty→beautiful(美丽的)
A2 using adjectives
after the verb to be形容
词作表语
1形容词可以放在be动词后,作表语。
The weather is warm
in spring.春天天气
暖和。
Winter is often cold
and snowy.冬天通常
寒冷而多雪。
在第一句句子中,warm是形容词,修饰句
子的主语the weather;在第二句句子中,co
ld
和Snowy都是形容词,共同修饰句子的主语
winter。我们把这种形容词置于be
动词(系动词
linking verb)后、修饰句子主语的用法称为“形
容词作表语(pr
edicative)”。这类句子结构就称为
“主(语)系(动词)表(语)”结构。 2“主系表”结构还可以用于其他系动词,如
turn,get等。在主阅读篇章中有如下句子:
In spring,the weather gets warm.春天,
天气变暖。
Everything turns
green.一切都变绿了。
在这两句句子中,形容词warm和green分
别修饰句子的主语the weather和ever
ything,
作句子的表语。有关“主系表”结构的知识,我
们还将在九年级的课程中进一步
学习。
A3 Adjectives with It is and to+a verb It
is+形
容词+动词不定式
1 我们常用“It
is+形容词+动词不定式”的
结构来表达对某一事件的看法。如:
It is
exciting to take a trip in
spring.春天出
去旅行真是令人兴奋。
It is
interesting to go on a picnic at this time
of
year.一年中的这个时候去野餐真是太有意思
了。
It is nice to
eat ice cream in the park.坐在
公园里吃冰淇淋真是太好了。
2让我们分析一下此类句型的结构:
It is nice to eat ice
cream in the park.
这句句子真正的主语不是it,而是整个动词
不
定式的部分,因此我们把it称为“形式主语”。
这句句子也可以写成:
To eat
ice cream in the park is nice.
但我们很少采用这种形式。

A2 Speak up
口语技巧一一论述理由
在表达对事物的看法时,我们常常需要给出自
己的理由。本单元的Speak up要求我们谈
谈自
己最喜欢的季节。为什么最喜欢这个季节呢总要
有理由来证明。假设你最喜欢的季节是wi
nter,
该如何陈述理由呢?
I love winter because I
like snow.
I think it is exciting to make
snowmen.
It is because winter is a time for
fun.
I enjoy spending time with my relatives
during the Spring Festival, so I like winter
best.
Winter is a time with a lot of
interesting
activities. Don’t you think so? 由上述句子可见,不是所有陈述理由的方式都
需要用到because。你也可以有自己的陈述方式
。
