眼尖的同學大概可以發現潔西把E4A，E4B的講義整理一下放進來而已，呵呵。這是一定要的啦，不然潔西會累死的，不過呢也整整花了我一個下午，好累。其實語言就是這樣，多練習囉。超級認真想要多練習的同學也可以用這份講義自己多多練習，裡面有家庭，個人資訊，跟外貌這三個大類，有部分閱讀跟寫作，自己多練習，效果一定會更好吧。音檔的部份在潔西的雲端，有需要的人再跟潔西要囉。又放在這上面格式亂的超厲害，暈倒，想下載的人請到Google Docs，連結在這兒：

D. 現在簡單式Present Simple    

現在簡單式的句型可分一般動詞與Be兩種句型。英文句子都要有主詞跟動詞，所以當句子中沒有一般動詞時，則需要現在簡單式的Be，也就是am, is, are。Be後面可能接名詞，形容詞，介系詞片語，時間等。

現在簡單式中 Be的句型

1. 肯定句Affirmative

主詞＋現在式Be ＋名詞/形容詞/介係詞片語

S ＋    Be        ＋noun/ adjective /preposition phrase

I       am           an English teacher.

You     are           happy.

My father   is            at home.

 

Be本身可以當助動詞，所以改否定句與疑問時可用be來幫忙。

2. 否定句Negative : 否定句只要在Be後面加not

S ＋   Be  ＋  not +  noun/ adjective / preposition phrase

I       am       not    a Japanese teacher.

You     are       not   sad.

My father    is        not    at work.

3. Yes/No 問句Yes/No questions : 把Be放在主詞前面造問句

Be  ＋   S       ＋   noun/ adjective / preposition phrase

Am       I                      tall?

Are       you                   the only child?

Is      your mother        from  Tainan?

 

4. WH問句WH questions:將WH疑問詞放在最前面再放Be、主詞與其他部分

Who 與 What 這兩個疑問詞可以當主詞

WH             Be   ＋    S  ＋   ( noun/ adjective / preposition phrase)

Who            is          that ?

Who            is                        there?

What          is       your name?

What          is                        on the table?

Where        am           I ?

When          is          your birthday?

How old       are        your  parents?

Why           are         you     so happy?

切記在現在簡單式中，一般動詞與Be絕對不會同時出現。

I am from Taiwan. / I come from Taiwan. 這兩句都可以。

但是不要說 I am come from Taiwan. 這是個錯誤的句子。

World English Intro 是潔西早上新班用的課本。World English 是Heinle出版社跟National Geographic合作在2010年出版的一系列英語學習的課本，共有四個等級，裡面使用了非常多的National Geographic的圖片，每個單元有一段影片。書的封面就寫出他們強調的Real People，Real Places，Real Language。所以裡面很多色彩繽紛，賞心悅目的圖片，介紹世界各地奇景，動物，各國風俗，當然還有最重要的英文，呵呵。

 

學英文就是要跟世界不同地方的人溝通，所以呢這本書也強調加強學生的世界觀，藉由豐富的圖片跟影片介紹給學生各國不同的文化，風俗。我覺得真的是非常的好呢。現在沒有在上課的同學有興趣的話也可以自己去買這本書來作練習，我覺得也不錯，一本五百元，裡面還有音檔跟影片檔，很實惠的價格。不過要到文鶴書局才買得到。

 

更棒的是這本書的網路資源也很豐富，連結我放在下面，每個單元有一些練習跟遊戲，對於自修的同學應該很有幫助。上課的同學也可以去多練習，增加自己對單字句型的熟悉度，可以學的更好。其實各大出版社都知道賣書不能只賣書，所以呢都會有網路資源，但是呢有的多有的少，有的只是應付，他們家的還不錯，也不用加入會員，所以即便沒有買書的人還是可以上去練習玩玩他們的遊戲喔。

 

http://elt.heinle.com/cgi-telt/course_products_wp.pl?fid=M20H&product_isbn_issn=1424063353&discipline_number=301&from_series_id=1000002002&subject_code=

 

潔西把課本最前面的單元目標文法重點跟字彙整理成中文，同學可以一目瞭然，上完課可以看看自己有沒有學到應該學到的重點，缺課的話，也知道該復習跟預習的範圍。潔西上課補充的講義都會放在部落格上，同學可以自行參考，預習跟復習。一個單元會上三堂課，三堂課的講義都會在同一個單元裡。講義請每次都記得帶，謝謝囉。
