Topic 119: I watched my sister sing/singing.???🎶🎵

See, watch, notice, hear, smell, feel 屬感官動詞

句型結構:主詞 + 感官動詞 + 受詞 + 原型動詞 bare infinitive / 現在分詞 -ing

如:
I watched my sister sing.
I watched my sister singing.

小學生一般不用仔細分以上兩句的分別,用任何一句都是對的。如家長或同學想知道仔細分別,可看下面解釋:

I watched my sister sing:完成的動作,即你觀看姐姐/妹妹完成表演整首歌曲。
I watched my sister singing: 進行中的動作,即你(進場)觀看時,姐姐/妹妹正在表演歌曲。

Topic 100: Verb ‘to be’ 變身大法

Be: 之前也曾說過,我們可以理解 ‘be’ 是一個袋子,裏面有三個小球,分別是 is / am / are。

Verb ‘to be’:
現在式: is / am / are
過去式: is / am -> was
are -> were
將來式: will be
現在完成式:has been / have been
過去完成式:had been

(not be) 就是: verb ‘to be’ + not

is / am / are not
縮寫是 isn’t/ aren’t

was / were not
縮寫是 wasn’t/ weren’t

will not be (不是 will be not)
縮寫是 won’t be

has not been / have not been (不是 has / have been not)
縮寫是 hasn’t/ haven’t been

had not been (不是 had been not)
縮寫是 hadn’t been

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 67: Present perfect tense

考試到了!與其死記 “just, already ...” 要用 present perfect tense🤭,我們應該先向同學們說說這個時式到底是什麼意思。😊

Just, already, yet, before, once, twice, since, for 等表示到目前為止這些事已經發生,通常沒有標示過去實際發生時間*,強調的是與現在的關係,所以用現在完成式(present perfect tense)。

Eg 1. I have been to Ocean Park once.
Eg 2. I went to Ocean Park yesterday.

1. 我到目前為止去過海洋公園一次。
2. 我昨天到海洋公園遊玩。(但我們不知道「我」到目前為止去過海洋公園多少次)

*”since” 雖然有實際時間,如 “I have known John since we were six. “ 但重點不是我在六歲時認識他 (compare: I knew John when we were six.) ,而是與現在的關係,即我從六歲開始至今認識他。🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️

明白現在完成式的概念,當要學過去完成式 (past perfect tense) 便更易掌握了!👏

Topic 53: Countable and uncountable nouns

Which one is the correct answer?

1. Here (is / are) your homework.
2. I need (some / an) advice.
3. Here are some (suggestion / suggestions) for you.

以上 ‘homework’ 及 ‘advice’ 是不可數名詞,所以不能加 -s,也不可用 ‘are’ 或 ‘a/an’; ‘suggestion’ 是可數名詞,用法是 ‘a suggestion / some suggestions’ 。
