Jason老師2011暑假新增口訣及舊口訣修訂(第一次修訂):



各位親愛的同學們,暑假又要接近尾聲了。Jason老師一如往常整理了自己這個暑期上課期間所自創的口訣,希望大家能夠再次好好溫習。口訣如下:



一:淺談pass及past的不同 (金桔檸檬口訣)

當然不同! Pass 作動詞,其三態為 pass / passed / passed 。past 有很多詞性,但基本上比要好記的方式是:只要排除動詞,past幾乎可以作任何詞性。Pass及past的用法口訣為:



Pass : 作動詞並有五大定義。口訣: 金桔通被傳(喝金桔檸檬的人通要被傳喚):金(經過),桔(及格),通(通過),被(被允許),傳(傳遞)



Past: 口訣:在過去,看經過,過幾分。分析如下:
在過去: in the past : 作名詞

看經過: watch sb past : 作副詞

過幾分:ten past nine : 作介係詞



二:what 和 how 的差異 (很持久口訣)

口訣:

樣子持久性

反感映健進

解釋如下

1. 樣子持久性 :只能用於what開頭之疑問句。凡是泛指某人某物的外貌,個性等具有持久性特色的疑問句一律以what 為主。

2. 反感映健進: 凡具有反應,感覺,映像,健康狀況,進步與否語意之疑問句一律以how開頭為主。

3. 天氣怎麼樣:問天氣如何(what’s the weather? / how’s the weather?)或是提出建議(what about / how about) 時what 和how 通用。



三:pay for 及 pay 用法之探討 (口訣:bd tft :new bra:買不買規則)待整理

2. pay 一般是用在沒有回報或是沒有直接利益的支付上。

英語分數的表示法:

一、用“基數詞+序數詞”表示

分數在英語中通常是借助於基數詞和序數 詞來共同表達的。其中基數詞表示分子,序數詞表示分母。

如:

one-tenth,十分之一,a third三分之一。

從以上例子可以看出:分子除用one外,也可用a如果分子大於1, 分母要用複數形式。

但是,12不能說aonesecond,而要說aonehalf

如:

one half12one third13 one fourth14

1434可以說aonefourththree fourths但常用a quarterthree quarters表示。

應該注意的是,分數修飾名詞時,若該名 詞是不可數名詞只能用單數;若是可數名詞,用單數或複數均可。但是,若它們在句子中作主語,則謂語動詞是用單數還是複數取決於名詞,即與分數所修飾的名詞 保持一致。例如:

4Only one-fifth of air consists of oxygen.氧氣只占空氣的15

5About two thirds of the students attendthe meeting.大約23的學生都參加了會議。

帶分數也是常見的英語數詞表達。所謂帶 分數,實際上是“整數+分數”, 表達時分而述之,只 是整數部分與分數部分要用連詞 and連 接。當帶分數修飾名詞時,該名詞通常是複數,但若名詞置於整數onea之 後,則用單數。“帶分數+名詞”作主語時,謂語動詞根據臨近原則要用 複數。例如:

6You should finish the work within one and a fourth hours. 你應在125小時內完成工作。

7The atom breaks up in a minute and a quarter.原子在125分鐘內裂變。

二、用per cent等表示

表示百分之一可以說oneahundredth但更常用one percentper cent,即用百分數表示法來表達。例如:

8Our bodies are 65percent water.我們人體含65%水分。

9Seventy-five percent of the earth’s surface is covered by water.地球表面的75%被水覆蓋著。

10Eighty-five percent of the students in English department are girls.英語系85%的學生是女生。

三、用part表 示

名詞part有 “……分之一”的意思,分子大於1時,part用 複數。表示分數的結構一般有以下三種:

1) “基數詞(或a)+序數詞+parts)” a hundred part百分之一

2) “基數詞+parts)+in+ 基數詞” five parts in one thousand千分之五

3) “基數詞+parts)+per+ 基數詞” one part per million百萬分之一

四、用“基數詞+介詞+基數詞”表示

借助介詞表示分數,介詞前的數詞是分 子,介詞後的數詞是分母。例如:

11Ninety-nine people out of a hundredif they were asked who first found America would answer Clumbus.如果要問是誰首先發現美洲,一百個人中有九十九個 (百分之九十九)將回答是哥倫布。

這種結構中的介詞主要有inout ofof以及to

12The map is drawn to a scale of one of ten thousand.這張地圖是按萬分 之一的比例繪製的。

程度形容最高級的用法:最高級不加the 的用法
形容詞最高級前通常要加定冠詞the,而以下幾種情況一般不需要加定冠詞the:
1.形容詞最高級前有序數詞、物主代詞、指示代詞或名詞所有格等限定詞修飾時,最高級前不用the。如:
The Yellow River is the second longest river in China.黃河是中國第二長河。

2.形容詞最高級在句中作表語而比較範圍又不明確時,最高級前不用the。如:
They are happiest on Saturdays.他們在星期六最快樂。

3.如果兩個形容詞最高級並列修飾同一個名詞時,第二個形容詞最高級前不加the。如:
He is the youngest and tallest boy in his class.他是班上年齡最小、個子最高的男孩。

4.如果形容詞最高級用來加強語氣,作"十分;非常"之意時,前面不加the。但形容詞最高級作單數名詞的定語時,可用不定冠詞a/an。如:
That book is most interesting.那本書非常有趣。

5.作賓語補足語的形容詞最高級前不加the。如:
I found it most difficult to get to sleep.我發現入睡最難。

6.在一些固定用法中,最高級前通常省略the。如:
With best wishes for you.向你致以最美好的祝願。
