语法重点一:
When is your birthday?你生日是什么时候?
1. when是疑问副词,意为“何时,什么时候”。这句话是以When开头的特殊疑问句,主要是对时间提问。
2. 回答时分两种情况:
(1) 用大致的年、月、日来回答,多数是in或on构成的介词短语。
语法重点二:
如:---When is your mother's birthday?
---It's on June 20th.
---When was she born?
---She was born in 1962.
(2)用具体的时刻(钟点)来回答。此时问句中的when相当于what time。
如:---When(What time) do you go to school every morning?
---I go to school at seven every morning.
---How old are you?你多少岁了?
---I'm fifteen.我十五岁。
1. How old 开头的特殊疑问句,是用来询问年龄的。其同义句是What's your age?
如:How old is your brother?
=What's your brother's age?
语法重点三:
on & in
on 和 in 都用来表达日期。二者的区别如下:
on:具体到某年某月的某一天
in:在某一年或某一个月
