课文分析
1、Do you have any shoes like these?
肯定句中用some,否定句和疑问句中用any
like 像…一样。介词。Throw the Frisbee like this.
2、-What size? -Size five. -What colour? -Black.
都是省略句,省略了主语和谓语,补全如下:
-What size of shoes do you want? -I want size five.
-What colour of shoes do you want? -I want black.
3、We don’t have any (shoes like those). 省略句。
4、But my sister bought this pair (of shoes) last month. 省略句。
but 可是,但是,不过。连词,表转折。
bought是buy的过去式。last month是一般过去时的标志。
双,对,副:a pair of shoes/socks/jeans/trousers/glasses/scissors(看作单数)
two pairs of ......(看作复数)
5、Did she buy them here? ← She bought them here.
【回想】一般过去时的陈述句变一般疑问句的方法。
这里的them代指the shoes,所以是复数。如果用单数,可以说Did she buy this pair here?
6、No, she bought t
