第四课 助动词 can, may, will 等
一.本课要点及示例
在这一课里我们要学习怎么用助动词 can, c-a-n, can, may, m-a-y, may, will, w-i-l-l, will 和 might, m-i-g-h-t, might.
首先我们依照惯例, 先请你听一段对话, 内容是说 peter 在学校里跟同学 Mary 谈到了学校里的活动. 我们还是先用自然速度念一遍, 请你注意听英文老师的 发音和声调.
M: Hi, Mary.
F: Oh, hello, Peter. How are you?
M: I'm fine. Can you have a cup of coffee with me?
F: I can't now. I have an exam tomorrow. I have to study for it.
M: You're taking a lot of courses this year.
F: I might drop some of them. Are you still with the football team?
M: Yes, we will play a game this Friday.
F: May I go to see you play?
M: Yes, of course.
F: I hope the weather will be sunny Friday.
M: I hope so, too.
现在我们用慢速度再把这段对话念一遍.
M: Hi, Mary.
F: Oh, hello, Peter. How are you?
M: I'm fine. Can you have a cup of coffee with me?
F: I can't now. I have an exam tomorrow. I have to study for it.
M: You're taking too many courses this year.
F: I might drop some of them. Are you still with the football team?
M: Yes, we will play a game this Friday.
F: May I go to see you play?
M: Yes, of course.
F: I hope the weather will be sunny Friday.
M: I hope so, too.
现在我把刚才那段会话里包含了助动词的句子挑出来, 用慢速度再念一遍给你 听.
M: Can you have a cup of coffee with me?
F: I can't now.
M: I might drop some of them.
M: We will play a game this Friday.
F: May I go to see you play?
F: I hope the weather will be sunny Friday.
二.CAN
首先我们学习怎么用 can, c-a-n, can. 这个字表示 "有能力" 作一件事. 它的否定 式是 cannot, c-a-n-n-o-t, cannot, 可以减缩为 can't, 意思当然就是说 "没有能力" 作一件事. 在第一组练习里, 我们给你举一些例子, 说 Peter 和 Mary 能作什么 事而不能作什么事. 每个句子我们念两次, 在念第二次的时候请你也跟着念.
M: Peter can have a cup of coffee but Mary can't.
F: Peter can have a cup of coffee but Mary can't.
M: Peter can play football but Mary can't.
F: Peter can play football but Mary can't.
M: Peter can swim but Mary can't.
F: Peter can swim but Mary can't.
M: Mary can dance but Peter can't.
F: Mary can dance but Peter can't.
M: Mary can sing but Peter can't.
F: Mary can sing but Peter can't.
M: Mary can speak French but Peter can't.
F: Mary can speak French but Peter can't.
