以上短语注意两点:①by后面的名词只能是单数,不能用复数;②在by与交通工具的名词之间不能加其它词,如冠词或代词,若一定要加上的话,则不用介词by,如by bike可以说成on one’s bike。
eg:They usually go to school by bus.
他们通常乘公共汽车上学。
Jim come to school by bike today.
吉姆今天是骑车到学校的。
Lucy goes home in her father’s car.
露西坐她父亲的汽车回家去了。
Do they go to work on foot?
他们是步行去上班吗?
2、How do you usually come to school?

How是特殊疑问词,对方式状语by……提问,要学会掌握。
How does he go to school?
How do they go to work?
How does Mr. Green go to work?
3、What about ……?
……怎么样?
这是一个用来询问或征求意见,提出建议的句型,一般都有上文,其后可接名词,代词和动名词,how about和其用法一样。
eg:①It’s too hot. What about some water?
②You study very hard. What about your brother?
③How about picking apples? We like working on the form.
4、副词用法:
usually 通常
sometimes 有时
always 总是
often 经常
这四个副词是一般现在时态的时间状语,一般说来,单个副词在句子中的位置应是:行为动词的前面,be动词或情态动词的后面,sometimes一词比较灵活,可放句首,句中或句尾。下面试着做练习。
eg:①LiLei usually gets up at six.
Sometimes he gets up at half past six.
②Kate is a good girl. She is always ready(乐于)to help others.
③Do you often go to see your grandma?
5、Don’t you usually come to school by bike?
这是一个否定疑问句,可译为“难道……不……吗?”常用来表示说话人的一种惊奇或疑惑的语气,学习这个句型时,要学会回答部分的内容。
eg:Don’t you play basketball?
Can’t you carry that box?
Doesn’t he come from England?
Isn’t she a doctor?
回答时,若符合事实,用Yes,不符合事实用No。但中文意思与英文不同,请注意。
eg:①——Isn’t she a doctor? 难道她不是医生吗?
——Yes, she is. (不,她是医生。)
——No, she isn’t. (是的,她不是医生。)
②——Aren’t they going to the form? 他们不打算去农场吗?
——Yes, they are. 不,他们打算去。
——No, they aren’t. 是的,他们不打算去。
在这类句子中,用Yes时,后面是肯定,用No时后面用否定,决不会出现Yes, it isn’t. No, they are.的情况。请试着练习:
Doesn’t he speak Chinese well? He was born in China.
A.Yes, he doesn’t. B.No, he is.
C.No, he doesn’t. D.Yes, he does.
答案:D。
