F. 現在簡單式Present Simple
英文有十二個時態。在學每一個時態時要記住四點：使用時機、句型、動詞變化以及搭配的副詞。最重要是理解跟多做練習，才能靈活運用、得心應手
一、現在簡單式的使用時機
- 英文用現在簡單式用來表達重複進行的活動、習慣、嗜好。

肯定句 S ＋ V1 (第三人稱單數動詞後要加s)

My mother cooks diner for me.
否定與問句需要有do或does這兩個助動詞來幫忙。否定句在助動詞後面加not
否定句 S ＋ do/does not + V1

He doesn’t like Japanese food.
Yes/No questions Yes/No 問句 把助動詞放在主詞前面造問句

拼字規則
- 大部分的動詞在字尾加s。

- 當動詞字尾是sh, ch, ss, x, z時，則加es。
wash-washes, watch-watches, kiss-kisses, fix-fixes, buzz-buzzes
- 當動詞字尾為子音加y時，需將y去掉，加ies。
study-studies, cry-cries, fly-flies, try-tries
- 當動詞字尾為母音加y時，則只要加s，即可。
say-says, play-plays, pray-prays, pay-pays
- 有幾個特別的變化需記住。

發音規則
- 當動詞字尾是無聲子音如/f/, /k/, /p/, /t/, 時，加s後，應讀做/s/。

H. Time
A: Excuse me. Do you have the time？ A: Can you tell me the time, please?
B: Yes, it’s ten after five. B: I’m sorry. I don’t have a watch.
A: Thanks a lot. A: Thanks anyway.
時間的說法：第一種只要分開讀出時與分的數字即可。如一點十分讀做one ten。第二個用法，在三十分前，說幾分過了幾點，要把分放在時前面。一點十分就要說成是十分鐘過了一點，ten minutes after one o’clock，所以要讀做 ten after one。而過了三十分後要用六十分去減，說成差幾分到下一個點鐘。所以一點五十分，就是差十分鐘兩點，ten minutes to two o’clock，所以要讀做 ten to two。
| — | 1:00 one o’clock | + |
| 1.55 one fifty-fivefive to two | 1.05 one-oh-fivefive after one | |
| 1.50 one fiftyten to two | 1.10 one tenten after one | |
| 1.45 one forty-fivea quarter to two | 1.15 one fifteena quarter after one | |
| 1.40 one fortytwenty to two | 1.20 one twentytwenty after one | |
| 1.35 one thirty-fivetwenty-five to two | 1.25 one twenty-fivetwenty-five after one | |
| 1.30 one thirtyhalf past one |
一個小時六十分，所以半個小時half hour是三十分。一刻鐘a quarter是十五分。
It’s 7.00 A.M. = It’s seven (o’clock) in the morning.
It’s 12.00 P.M. = It’s twelve (o’clock). =It’s noon.
It’s 3.00 P.M. = It’s three (o’clock) in the afternoon.
It’s 7.00 P.M. = It’s seven (o’clock) in the evening.
It’s 10.00 P.M. = It’s ten (o’clock) at night.
It’s 12.00 A.M. = It’s twelve (o’clock) at night. It’s midnight.
1. What time do you get up?
2. What time do you eat breakfast?
3. When is your lunch break?
4. What time do you finish work?
5. What time do you eat dinner?
6. What time do you go to bed?
7. Do you manage time or does time manage you?

A: What’s that?
B: The distance to school. It’s too far away. It takes me an hour to drive
there every day.
A: Wow. That must be awful!
B: It is, but the schools that are near me are not as good.
3.
A: How is your new job going, Anna?
B: Good, thanks. I really like it.
A: What do you like best about it?
