Lesson 8 The best and the worst
★New words and expressions
☆competition n.比赛，竞赛
所有的比赛都可以通称为competition
速度比赛：race eg.car race
球赛：match eg.football match
contest用的更多，除了以上的比赛，都可以说contest
选美比赛就是beauty contest
还有game，如果把上面的都忘了，就用这个
☆neat adj.整齐的，整洁的
不等于clean，等于tidy
☆pool n.水池
pool是人工的，游泳池：swimming pool
天然的叫池塘：pond
★本课重点是比较级和最高级
※三个或者三个音节(元音音标)以上的词：多音节词：
比较级的构成：more+原级，最高级的构成：the most+原级
※单音节的词用er，est
※双音节：不一定
一般情况，同单音节
以y结尾的+er，例外：slowly-more slowly-the most slowly
often-more often-the most often
clever-cleverer-cleverest和clever-more clever-the most clever都对
技巧：长的当多音节，短的当单音节，但仅仅是技巧哦
fun按照语法应该是funner,funnest,可老美偏偏说more fun,the most fun。
如果考语法，中国人全对，美国人错的一塌糊涂，英国人对一半。所以老美是不会拿自己的弱点来考我们的。
无规律：
good-better-best;bad-worse-worst;many/much-more-most;little-less-least
far-farther-farthest;far-further-furthest
farther：距离上的更远;further：程度上的
old-older-oldest;old-elder-eldest
older是比……大;elder做定语修饰其它名词：elder sister
★Text
Joe Sanders has the most beautiful garden in our town.Nearly everybody enters for 'The Nicest Garden Competition' each year,but Joe wins every time.Bill Frith's garden is larger than Joe's.Bill works harder than Joe and grows more flowers and vegetables,but Joe's garden is more interesting.He has made neat paths and has built a wooden bridge over a pool.I like gardens too,but I do not like hard work.Every year I enter for the garden competition too,and I always win a little prize for the worst garden in the town!
☆enter for:报名参加，只强调报名
eg.enter for the exam
参加：take part in
☆win-won-won
vi.I win.我赢了。 I lose.我输了。
vt. 1.win sth win后面往往是奖品
eg.I win the book.
2.win a prize:赢了一个奖
win a prize for:因为……而获奖
[注]win后面不能接对手，不能说I win you.
要用defeat或beat，但defeat用得多，因为beat还有打的意思。
I defeat you. |
