5楼 动词为纲“滚雪球” 难易编组抓循环 同类归纳印象深 图示介词最直观 混淆多因形音义 反义词语成对念 构词方法不可忘 习惯用语集中练 词不离句法最好 课外阅读莫间断 be 的用法口诀 我用am，你用are，is连着他，她，它； 单数名词用is，复数名词全用are。 变疑问，往前提，句末问号莫丢弃。 变否定，更容易，be后not莫忘记。 疑问否定任你变，句首大写莫迟疑。 时间名词前所用介词的速记歌 年月周前要用in，日子前面却不行。 遇到几号要用on，上午下午又是in。 要说某日上下午，用on换in才能行。 午夜黄昏须用at，黎明用它也不错。 at也用在明分前，说“差”可要用上to， 说“过”只可使用past，多说多练牢牢记， 莫让岁月空蹉跎。 记住f(e)结尾的名词复数 妻子持刀去宰狼，小偷吓得发了慌； 躲在架后保己命，半片树叶遮目光。 巧记48个国际音标 单元音共十二，四二六前中后。 双元音也好背，合口集中八个整。 辅音共计二十八，八对一清又七浊， 四个连对也包括。有气无声清辅音， 有声无气浊辅音，发音特点应掌握。 非谓语动词的一些特殊用法后只接不定式作宾语的一些常用特殊谓语动词 动词后，不定式，want, hope和wish,agree, decide, mean, manage, promise, expect, pretend,且说两位算在此， 要记牢，要记住，掌握它们靠自己。 后接动词不定式做宾语补足语省略不定式符号“to”的一些常用特殊动词, 一些动词要掌握，have, let和make, 此三动词是使役，“注意”“观察”“听到”see,还有feel和watch，使用它们要仔细，后接“宾补”略去“to”，此点千万要牢记。除此之外，还可以掌握“八字言”一感feel,二听hear, listen to, 三让have, let, make,四看see, look at, observe, watch 后只接动名词做宾语的一些常用特殊动词 特殊动词接“动名”，使用它们要记清： “放弃”“享受”可“后悔”， “坚持”“练习”必“完成”， “延期”“避免”非“介意” 掌握它们今必行。 动名词在句中的功能及其它 “动名”语法其功能，名词特征有动、形，主宾表定都可作，“动名”、“现分”要认清，“现分”不作“宾”和“主”，动名作“状”可不行。二词皆可作定语，混为一谈不允许，主谓关系视分词，“动名”一词无此义。 现在分词形式及在句子中的作用（包括过去分词的作用）： 现在分词真好记，动词后面ING。它的作用真不小，可以充当定状表。 还有宾语补足语，忘记此项不可以。 分词做定语的位置及其它 “定分”位置有二条，词前词后定分晓。 单个分词在词前，有时此规有颠倒。 分词短语在词后，“定从”和它互对照。 “现分”动作进行时，“过分”动作完成了。 （注：“定分”：做定语的分词；“定从”：定语从句；“现分”：现在分词；“过分”：过去分词。） 分词做状语在句子中所表示的意义 分词做状语，概有七意义。“ 时间”和“原因”，“结果”与“目的”。“方式”加“伴随”，“条件”常出席。且谈其主语，谓语头前的*。欲要记住它，必须常练习。（*指句子的主语）。 独立主格结构 独立结构要认清：名、代之后副或形。 或是分词或“介短”，with结构不可轻， 名代二词是其“主”，句子结构必分明。 独立结构好掌握 句中作用只一个： 千变万化皆做“状”，其中意义也不多。 “时间”“条件”和“原因”，“方式”“伴随”没别的。 “状从”和其前三个，可以互变不难学。 英语分数巧记 英语分数不费事，“母序子基”四个字。 分子若是大于一，分母还须加-s。 字母“oo”读音歌 “oo”发[u:]最常见，非重音中要短念。 字母“k”前不能长，“好脚站木羊毛”短。 |
