二．重点单词和短语
1. There be 句型
艺术节英文
(1)结构：There be+sb./sth. +地点表示“在某地有某人或某物”（there 是引导词，没有词义；be 是谓语
牛肉面条
动词；某人/物是主语，地点作状语，多为介词短语）
< There is a bank in the neighborhood.
(2)There be 句型的谓语动词be在人称和数上应以后面的第一个名词保持一致。
▲如果后面的名词是可数名词单数或不可数名词，谓语动词用is.
< There is some salad on the table .
▲如果后面的名词是可数名词复数，谓语动词用are.
< There are some students in the classroom.
▲如果There be 句型中有多个名词，be 动词通常与第一个名词保持人称和数的一致。
< There is a boy and two girls in the room. There are two girls and a boy in the room.
(3)There be 句型的一般疑问句：将be 动词提到句首。鸟类栖息地
.
→Are there any students in the classroom?肯定回答：Yes, there is /are. 否定回答：No, there isn’t/aren’ｔ
< —Is there a bank near here? —Yes, there is ./No ,there isn’t.
(4)There be 句型的否定句：在be 后加not
a post office near hear.
< There is a post office near hear. →There isn’ｔ
(5)There be 句型的特殊疑问句：特殊疑问词（组）+be +there +其他
< There are three pens in my schoolbag.(请对划线部分进行提问).
青少年服装→How many pens are there in your schoolbag?
【拓展】there be和have 都表示“有...”，但有所区别：
①含义不同。
there be 结构表示的是“某地有某物/人”，强调“存在关系”；
have则表示“某人/某物所有”，强调“所属关系”。
< There is a bus in our factory. Our factory has a bus.
②句型不同。
there be 结构的句型为“There be +某物/某人+某地”，
否定句是把not放在be 之后，疑问句是把be提到句首；
have句型为“某人/某物+ have/ has +某物/某人”，否定句通常是在have前加don’t ( has前加doesn’t )，疑问句是在句首加do（第三人称单数加does）。
< There isn’t a cat under the chair.
以毒攻毒She doesn’t have two brothers.
③用there is或there are还是用have或has均取决于句子的主语。但there be 句型里有两个或多个并列主语时，be习惯上和最靠近的那个在数上保持一致。
< There is a bike under the tree.There are some bikes under the tree.
There is an apple and two oranges on the table.
You have a new book./ You have some new books.
He has a new book./ He have some new books.
④当表示某物的构成和组成部分时，用there be 和have均可。
< Our school has twenty class. (= There are twenty class in our school.)
2. across from 意为“在,，的对面”，后面接表示地点的名词或代词。
< We live across from the street. There is a bank across from the library.
表示“在,，的对面”的短语还有：
①on the other The bus stop is on the other side of the river.
②be The fruit shop is opposite the post office.
3、next to 表示“在...旁边；靠近；紧挨着”，后接表地点的名词或代词。
< The pay phone is next to the library.The garden is next to my hou.
【辨析】near也表示“在...旁边”，但与next to有所区别：
从空间上讲，near只表示“在...旁边；在...附近”而next to有“紧挨着”之意；也就是说next to比near 靠的更近。试比较：
< Peter sits next to Mike. Peter sits near Tom.
4.【辨析】between和among
▲between 表示“在....中间”，常与and连接，构成短语，指在两者之间
< I sit between Lucy and Lily.
▲among 也表示“在....中间”，指在三者或三者以上的中间。
< My brother is among tho boys.
5.【辨析】in front of/ in the front of 都表示“在...前面”
in front of 指在物体外部的前面There is a bank in front of the hospital
in the front of 指在物体内部的前面The teacher’s desk is in the front of the classroom.
< He has to cross the river to school.
across 介词表示“横过；穿过”
< He has to walk across the river to school.
Through介词，表示“（从中间）穿过”
< go through the forest/park
注：across表示从一定范围的一边另一边, 动作在物体表面进行。
< go/walk across the road/bridge/street
7. spend 动词，表示“花（时间、金钱）”
①spend ,on sth.（名词）“在某事或某物上花费金钱或时间”
< I usually spend one hour on my homework. Linda spends ten yuan on this book.
②spend ,(in) doing sth. “花费金钱或时间做某事”
< I usually spend one hour (in) doing my homework.
She often spends twenty minutes (in) walking to school.
8. pay 动词，表示“付钱；付费；付款”（过去式为paid）
①pay for +物“付钱买某物” E.g. He paid for the books.
②pay +钱+for +物“付多少钱买某物”
< He paid 200 yuan for the books.
③pay sb. some money for sth. E.g. He paid her 20 dollars for the shoes.
9. e/watch/hear sb. doing sth. 表示“看见/观看/听见某人正在做某事”
< I love to watch the monkeys climbing around.
I often hear some girls singing in the classroom.
10. To get to the park, you just have to cross Center Street.
to get to the park 是目的状语前置，just起增强语气的作用，和此处的have to表示“只要，仅需”。
< To get a good grade, we must study hard.
11. enjoy 动词，表示“享受；喜爱”→enjoyable adj. 表示“高兴的”
①enjoy sth./sb. “喜欢某物/某人”E.g. Do you enjoy this book?
②enjoy doing sth. “喜欢做某事”E.g. He enjoys listening to music.
③enjoy onelf =have fun =have a good time 表示“玩得高兴”
< Do you enjoy yourlf today?
have fun (in) doing sth. “做某事很有乐趣” E.g. We have fun (in) learning and speaking English. 12.easy 形容词，表示“容易的”，用来修饰名词→反义词：difficult “困难的”
→easily 副词，“容易地；轻松地”，用来修饰动词
< The question is so easy. You can get to the library easily.
13.It’s one’s turn to do sth. 表示“轮到某人做某事”
< It is our turn to clean the classroom.
→take turns to do sth. 表示“轮流去做某事”
< Take turns to clean the blackboard.
14. the way to +地点表示“去，的路”
< Can you tell me the way to the post office?
15. Then go down Bridge Street and turn left at New Park.
go down 意为“往前走”。turn left / right 意为“向左/右拐”。
在英语中表示“往前走”的短语还有go/walk up, go/walk down, go/walk along 等。
朝鲜英语< Turn right and go straight along this road.
