★New words and expressions
☆send v.寄
寄信:send a letter
用法:send sth to sb/send sb sth
类似的用法还有give,take,pass,read,sell...
send/take children to school
区别:take:强调某人亲自送;
send则是通过第三人去送,如美国的校车
本课重点:双宾语
双宾语指直接宾语(表示动作结果)和间接宾语(表示动作目标)
如在give sb sth中,sb是间接宾语,sth是直接宾语
如果不是为了以后讲语法,不用分清什么是间接宾语,什么是直接宾语,只需把用法记住即可。
间接宾语在后面时,其前必须加to(对……而做,翻译为“给”)或for(为……而做,翻译为“替”)
可以翻译为“给”,“替”,“为”的,就用for;如果只能翻译为“给”就以用to
give a book to me;I buy a book for you.
总结:用for的词:buy,order,make,find
Do me a favor please.=Do a favor for me.
☆postcard n.明信片
[注意]/t/和/k/前者失去爆破音
简写为card,由此引申出:
namecard/visiting card:名片
ID card:身份证
credit card:信用卡
cash card
☆spoil(spoiled or spoilt) v.使索然无味,损坏(重点词)
几种破坏:
打破玻璃用break;
damage:破坏,但是程度不一定很重;
destroy:破坏,彻底摧毁;
以上三个是指物理上的破坏,而spoil主要指精神上
spoil:把东西的质量变得不好了;生活中不顺心的事。
1.宠坏。His parents spoiled the boy.
2.毁了某人心情。His arrival spoiled my holiday.
☆museum n.博物馆

这个词我们在第一课见过了,基本用法和private一起记。下面再说两点:
1.public house简称pub:酒吧
2.in public:公开的;in private:私下里的
☆friendly adj.友好的
以-ly结尾是形容词,同样的还有lovely
friendly单独用,一般做宾语来用
作为状语表示这个人做什么事情很友好,用短语in a friendly way
☆waiter n.服务员,招待员
waiter(男服务员),waitress(女服务员),只出现在餐馆里

all of us;all of the students
★Text
Postcards always spoil my holidays.Last summer,I went to Italy.I visited the museums and sat in public gardens.A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian.Then he lent me a book.I read a few lines.I did not understand a word.Everyday I thought about postcards.On the last day,I made a big decision.I got up early and bought thiry-seven cards.I spent the whole day in my room,but I did not write a single card!
☆语言不可数,所以要用a little Italian或a few words of Italian
☆think about/of 考虑,思考,think of还可指想到
think over:仔细考虑
What do you think of the weather today?
冷:cold,chilly(凛冽),freeze:I\'ll freeze.(冻僵)
☆last summer里的last表示“上一个”
the last day里的last表示“最后一个”,表示“最后一个”时要加冠词the,这时前面要加介词
☆spend+时间+地点
eg:I spent three hours in the sea.
I spend a lot of time in traffic jam.(交通堵塞)
