第八课 过去式动词
一.本课要点及示例
在这一课里, 我们继续学习过去式动词.
首先还是依照惯例, 请你听一段对话, 内容是说彼得星期六下午遇见了他的同 学玛丽, 两个人谈到星期五晚上学校开舞会的事情. 现在我请两位英文老师念 这段对话, 请你特别注意英文老师的发音和语调.
M: Where were you this morning?
F: This morning? I was at home, helping my mother.
M: Why weren't you at school? Weren't you on the clean up committee for the dance?
F: No, I wasn't on that committee. I was on the decorating committee.
M: Oh! Well, the decorations were very nice.
F: We worked on them all day Friday. Were you at the dance last night?
M: Yes, I was. I didn't see you there.
F: I was there, but there were a lot of people, and I didn't stay very long.
M: It was a nice dance, wasn't it?
F: Yes, I enjoyed it very much.
现在我再请英文老师把整段对话用慢速度念一遍. 这次请你特别注意对话里的 过去式动词.
M: Where were you this morning?
F: This morning? I was at home, helping my mother.
M: Why weren't you at school? Weren't you on the clean up committee for the dance?
F: No, I wasn't on that committee. I was on the decorating committee.
M: Oh! Well, the decorations were very nice.
F: We worked on them all day Friday. Were you at the dance last night?
M: Yes, I was. I didn't see you there.
F: I was there, but there were a lot of people, and I didn't stay very long.
M: It was a nice dance, wasn't it?
F: Yes, I enjoyed it very much.
在刚才那段对话里有几种不同的过去式动词, 现在我挑选出几个例子, 请英文 老师再用慢速度念一遍:
