Today is Christmas Eve. Jennifer and Vicki made an appointment to go to the concert together this evening, but Vicki didn’t appear on time. Fifteen minutes later...
今天是平安夜。珍妮弗和维姬约好今晚一起去听音乐会,但维姬没有准时到场。十五分钟后…
Vicki:(气喘吁吁)I’m so sorry, Jennifer.
Jennifer: What happened, Vicki? You’re always on time.
Vicki: The roads today are so crowded. And this theatre is really far away from my home. I have tried my best to get there as fast as I can.
Jennifer: How far is it from your home to the theater?
Vicki: It’s about fifty minutes’ drive.
Jennifer: How long did it take you to come here today?
Vicki: It took me one and a half hours!
Jennifer: Poor Vicki. Well, the show is about to start. Let’s get in.
老师:Molly,你还记得以前我们学习过的“How+形容词”的特殊疑问句吗?
Molly:记得!刚刚对话里还出现How far和How long这两个呢。
老师:还记得它们的用法吗?
Molly:当How与其他形容词搭配使用时,可询问年纪,时间,距离,长宽高等。
老师:Good!今天跟着老师一起来回顾一下它们吧!
以对话中出现的两个句子为例:
How far is it from your home to the theater?
How long did it take you to come here today?
这两个句子是对什么的提问呢?
Molly:
How far是对两地间的距离提问
How long是对长度的提问,包括时间的长度和物体的长度
老师:Great! 你能给我举几个例子吗?
Molly: 没问题。
询问距离:
How far is it from your home to school? 从你家到学校多远?
我们可以回答说:
It’s only about two kilometers. 只有大概两千米远。
或It’s about 30 minutes’ walk. 走路三十分钟左右。
询问时间或物体的长度:
How long does it take you to get to school? 你到学校要花多长时间?
It takes about 15 minutes. 大概花15分钟。
How long is the river? 这条河有多长?
It’s 200 meters. 河有200米长。
老师:Very good!要注意How long和How far的区别哦
(How long和How far的区别)
How long用来询问时间或物体的长度,当询问时间长度时,回答是具体的时间;而How far则是询问两地之间的距离,当用时间回答时,强调的是对应时间的路程或车程。千万不要混淆哦。
Molly:好的,老师。
老师:除此之外,我们还有:
How deep 询问物体的深度
如:
How deep is the river? 河有多深?
It’s about 3 meters. 大概三米深。
How wide 询问物体的宽度
如:
How wide is the street? 街道有多宽?
It’s about 10 meters. 大概十米宽。
How high 询问建筑物或山峰的高度
如:
How high is the tower?这座塔有多高?
Molly:老师,how high可以用来询问人的身高吗?
老师:Good question!如果想询问人或者树的高度,我们一般使用How tall,如:
How tall is your dad? 你的爸爸多高?
He is 1.8 meters tall. 他大概一米八高。
How tall is that tree? 那棵树多高?
It’s about eight meters. 树大概八米高。
Molly:我都明白啦!
老师:As the tree, so the fruit. 长什么树,结什么果。“How + 形容词”的特殊疑问句本身并不难,可是要想学好它,还是要夯实基础哦
