Class 3 第三课
Topic: Work and the Present Tense 工作和现在时
Grammar: Present Tense
现在时一般用来描述客观事实、规律或者习惯性反复发生的动作。
最重要的规定是第三人称单数 (he, she, it),一般来说给动词加 s
I walk to school.
我走路去上学
She rides her bike to school.
她骑单车去上学
有一些动词叫不规则动词。它们不按照加 s 的规定,有自己的第三人称形式。
have -> has 有
do -> does 做
go -> goes 去
I have a bike. My father has a car.
我有自行车。我爸爸有汽车
We do our homework every day. My mother does a lot of work at home.
我们每天做作业。我妈在家里做很多工作
My parents go to work by bus. The bus goes downtown.
我父母坐公交车去上班。公交车去市中心
现在时的否定句应该加 do not 在动词前面。
I don’t live near here.
我不住在附近
He doesn’t drive to work.
他不开车上班
She doesn’t have a car.
她没有汽车
They don’t go to school.
他们不去上学
在这里注意,我们只应该改第一个动词。在这样的否定句里面,do 是第一个动词。如果有第三人称主语(he, she, it) 的话,do 变成 does. 后边的动词是它原形。
现在时的疑问句经常用 do 来问。如果疑问句是关于某个动作,某个动词,应该用 do. 可以这么理解: do 的意思是“做”所以是像问“你做不做这个动作?”回答这种问题可以用简单的方式,不用重说疑问句的所有信息。

Yes, I do.

No, I don’t.
不喜欢
Does he have a sister?
他有姐妹吗?
Yes, he does.
有
No, he doesn’t.
没有
还有疑问句用问题词来问。这样的问题不能用简单方式回答。

I wake up at 8AM.
我早上8点醒

他几点下班?
He finishes work at 6PM
