知识讲
解
1. I often go to the movies.
频度副词always, usually, often, sometimes, hardly和
never是英语中最常见的频度副词，它们在句中的位
置大致相同：通常放在行为动词之前，系动词be、
助动词和情态动词之后。但它们的含义及所表示频
度是各不相同的。
（1）always表示的频度为100%，表示动作重复、状态
继续，中间没有间断，意思是“总是；永远”。
例如：
▲ The sun always rises in the east and sets in the west.
太阳总是东升西落。
▲ Customers are always right.
顾客永远是对的。
always与进行时态连用，并不强调动作正在进行，而是
表示说话人的“赞扬”、“不满”、“厌烦”等情绪，带有
强烈的感情色彩。
例如：
▲ She is always thinking of how she can do more for people.
她总是在考虑怎样为人们多做些事。（表示赞扬）
▲ He was always asking for money.
他总是要钱。（表示厌烦）
▲ She is always asking for leave.
她总是请假。（表示不满）
always与not连用，表示部分否定，意思是“不
总是”。
例如：
▲ The rich are not always happy.
有钱人未必总是幸福的。
（2）usually表示的频度为70%左右，意为“通
常；平常”，即很少有例外。
例如：
▲ He usually goes to bed at 10 o’clock.
他通常10点钟睡觉。
（3）often表示的频度为50%左右，意为“常常”，但
不如usually那么频繁，表示动作重复，中间有
间断。
例如：
▲ He is often late for school.
他上学经常迟到。
very often语气比often重，常位于句首或句末。
例如：
▲ He doesn’t go to London very often.
他不常去伦敦。
（4）sometimes表示的频度为20%左右，意为“有
时”，表示动作偶尔发生。可以位于句首，以示
强调。
例如：
▲ It is sometimes hot and sometimes cold.
天气忽冷忽热。
▲ Sometimes he does it this way and sometimes he
does it that way.
2. What does she do on weekends?
她周末做什么？
（1）询问某人在什么时间做某事在英语中用What
do / does sb. do ...? 来构成疑问。请注意助动
词随着人称和数的变化而发生改变。
例如：
▲What does she do after school?
她放学后做什么？
▲What do they do on Mid-Autumn Festival?
他们中秋节做什么？
（2）这种问题要注意问时间介词的用法和助动词随
人称的改变。这种问题要用一般现在时来回答，
特别要注意主语是第三人称单数时，动词要变
形。
如上面两个问题可以这样回答：
▲She usually goes to the gym.
她通常去体育馆。
▲They eat moon-cakes.
他们吃月饼。
3. He sometimes watches TV.
注意sometimes与几个形似的词的区别。
a. sometime是副词，意为“在某个时候，某时”。
Will you come again sometime next week?
She was there sometime last year.
b. some time是名词词组，意为“一段时间”，做时
间状语用。
I will stay here for some time.
He worked on the trouble for some time.
c. some times是名词词组，意为“几次；几倍”。
I met him some times in the street last month.
The factory is some times larger than that one.

survey at Green High School.

4. Here are the results of the student activity survey

4. Here are the results of the student activity
survey at Green High School.
这儿是格林高中的学生活动调查结果.
(3) at Green High School 在格林高中
在学校用介词at。
例如：
at Junior School 在初中
at Primary School 在小学
5. Most students exercise three or four times a week.
大多数学生一周锻炼三四次。
(1) exercise v. 锻炼
exercise n. 体操
do exercise 锻炼；运动
(2) time 次数
time and time again 一次又一次地；再三地
(3) three or four times a week 一周三四次
表示一周/月/年多少次，可以用 ... times a
week / month / year。注意有两个词有单独
的表示法，“一次”用once，“两次”用twice。
（4）表示数量的形容词all (全部)，most (大部分)，
some (一些)，no (没有)可用来修饰主语、宾
语或表语。
例如：
▲ All the waiters in the restaurant are very busy.
▲ All the students in our school have to wear school
uniforms.
▲ I know most people in this party.
▲ Gina has some beautiful scarves.
▲ No children can sing this song.
