Topic 112: 描寫驚訝 🙀
小三或以上作文很多時要形容驚訝的樣子,同學可記住以下其中幾句,在作文時運用:
1. I am surprised.
2. I am astonished.
3. I yell in surprise.
4. My mouth falls open.
5. I stare open-mouthed at (something/somebody).
6. I am shocked (surprised and upset).
7. I am startled (surprised and a bit frightened).
*6-7 也帶有其他感情,要用得適當才可呀!

Topic 111: short answers 短答
無論是文法題目或閱讀理解題目,學生都有機會遇上「短答題」。學生常犯的,就是當問題問 ‘Do you like ...?’ 而他們卻答了 ‘Yes, I like.’ 😅 正確的答案是 ‘Yes, I do.’。
其實,只要記着重用問題第一個生字來作答便可,如:
1. Do you like apples? Yes I do.
2. Does John like pears? Yes, he does.
3. Did you go to the library yesterday? Yes, I did.
4. *Are you tired? Yes, I am. *出現 are / were you 便不可照寫 are / were,要轉為 I am / was.

Topic 110: on / in the bookshelf / bookshelves?
‘Bookshelf’ 的中文是書架,指的不是整個書櫃,而是一層,所以要用 ‘on’。
I have found my storybook on the bookshelf. 我在書架上(指一層)找到了我的故事書。
I put all the books on the bookshelves. 我把所有的書都放在書架上(指多於一層或整個書櫃)。

Topic 108: 作文只懂用 ‘said’😨
英作跟中作一樣,可以用語言描寫表達角色的心情或性格。我們應該用不同的 saying verbs,以加強說話者的情感,如:
回答:answered, replied
建議:suggested, advised
命令:ordered
歉意:apologised
同意:agreed
懇求:begged
傷心地説:sobbed, cried
興奮地説:laughed, exclaimed
震驚地説:exclaimed
抱怨地説:groaned
取笑:jeered, teased
輕聲說:whispered
喃喃自語:murmured, muttered
例: ‘I have to stay at home. I have so much homework to do,’ groaned Peter.
注意: 説話內容 (’...’) 再加上說話者(groaned Peter) 才是一句完整句子,所以 ‘I have so much homework to do’ 後要用 comma (,) 不應用 full stop (.)

Topic 107: be going to / will 怎樣用?🧐
很多學生覺得be going to / will 都是説將來,那兩者有什麼分別?🤨
簡單來説,
Will:
預計將來有機會發生的事情
e.g. If I study hard, I will pass the test.
Be going to:
(1) 計劃好的事情,所以與 ‘will’ 相比,發生的機會較大
e.g. I am going to have a haircut tomorrow.
(2) 有預兆,所以發生的機會很大
e.g. The sky is dark (預兆). It is going to rain.
註:一般小學英文科測驗或考試的 Tenses
部分都不需用到 ‘be going to’。一般有 ‘tomorrow / next / later / hope / think / guess’ 等 signal words,學生可以用 ‘will’。

‘go for’ + an activity 活動
