同步讲解

Section A

1. — How does Mary get to school？

玛丽怎么去学校？

— She takes the subway.

她乘坐地铁。

（1） How do/does sb get （to）...？是用来询问对方或他人如何到达某地的常用句型。

其常用回答有如下几种：

sb walk（s） to school/sb get（s） to school on foot

某人步行去学校

sb ride（s） a bike to school /sb get（s） to school by bike

某人骑自行车去学校

（2） get to意为“到达”，get为不及物动词，若加宾语，后面需接介词to。

注意：get后接home，here，there，downstairs，upstairs等副词时，其后不加to。

I usually get home at six thirty every evening.

我通常每天晚上六点半到家。

（3） take v. 乘坐；搭乘，后接表示交通工具的名词。

take the bus 乘公共汽车 take the boat 乘船

take the subway 乘地铁

表示乘坐交通工具的几种表达方式

①take + a/the + 交通工具

take a bus 乘公共汽車

②in/on + a/the + 交通工具

on a train 乘火车

③by + 交通工具

by bus/taxi 乘公共汽车/出租车

注意：步行 on foot

by sea = by ship 乘船 by rail = by train 乘火车

by air = by plane 乘飞机

2. one hundred and five 105

hundred num. 一百

“数词+hundred+名词复数”意为“几百……”

“hundreds of+名词复数”意为“成百上千的……”

She has five hundred books.

她有500本书。

There are hundreds of people on the square.

广场上有成百上千的人。

thousand（千），million（百万），billion（十亿）与hundred的用法一样。

3. — How far is it from your home to school？

从你家到学校有多远？

— Im not sure ... about 10 kilometers.

我不确定……大约10千米。

how far意为“多远”，用来询问距离，指路程的远近。

How far is it from the hospital to the bank？

从医院到银行有多远？

如何回答how far的提问：

（1） 有具体的数字时，应与away from连用，口语away可省略；

（2） 没有具体数字时，应用far或near作答；

（3） 也可以用“时间+walk/ride/drive”回答。

— How far is your home from your school？

你家离学校有多远？

— Its about three kilometers （away） from my school.

我家离学校大约3千米。

— Its not very far.

不是很远。

— Its about 25 minutes walk/a 25-minute walk.

步行大约25分钟。

注意：far不与具体的时间相连。

4. — How long does it take you to get to school？

你到学校花多长时间？

— About 15 minutes by bike.

骑自行车大约15分钟。

（1） how long意为“多久，多长时间”，用以询问某个动作所持续的时间，谓语动词应为持续动词，答语多为表示一段时间的名词短语。如：

— How long will you stay there？

你要在那待多久？

— About a week.

大约一周。

（2） It takes sb some time to do sth为固定句型，意为“做某事需要花费某人多长时间”。take在此句型中意为为“花费”，it是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的不定式to do sth。如：

It takes me about an hour to do my homework every day.

我每天大约花1个小时做家庭作业。
