Notes:
1. 記住怎樣用I would like ... / 我想……(或者它的縮略形式 Id like ... / 我想……) 后接不定式或名詞來表達(dá)將來的意愿和希望。例如:Id like to have a break. 我想休息一下。
2. 你可以用簡單的問句來談?wù)搶淼那闆r,以What will ...? 你將做……?例如:What will you do at the weekend? 這個(gè)周末你將做什么?
小鏈接:
1. 國慶節(jié)(National Day )是一個(gè)國家最隆重的政治性節(jié)日。在世界100多個(gè)國家中,稱“國慶節(jié)”或“國慶日”(National Day)的有中國等約40 個(gè)國家;稱“獨(dú)立日”或“獨(dú)立節(jié)”(Independence Day)的有美國、墨西哥、菲律賓、緬甸等約60個(gè)國家;稱“共和日”或“共和國日”(Republic Day)的有南斯拉夫、冰島等國家;另外還有稱“日”、“聯(lián)合日(Union Day)”、“成立日”、“革命節(jié)(Revolution Day)”等的,真是形形色色,五花八門。
2. 通常要表示“慶?!惫?jié)日,我們都用celebrate 這個(gè)詞。比如:
Chinese people are going to celebrate their National Day on October 1.
要表示“以……方式慶?!?,我們通常說:
We celebrated the New Year with a dance party.
如果要說“慶?;顒?dòng)”,通常用celebration 這個(gè)詞。慶祝活動(dòng)通常是不止一個(gè)了,所以還有celebrations。比如:
Im sure the Times Square celebrations cost a lot of money.
3. 最后,再來學(xué)幾個(gè)有關(guān)國慶節(jié)的表達(dá):
National Day is coming. 國慶節(jié)快到了。
National Day falls on wednesday this year. 今年國慶節(jié)是星期三。
October 1st is Chinas National Day. 十月一日是中國的國慶節(jié)。
Its a fortnight to National Day. 離國慶節(jié)還有兩個(gè)星期。
