1. when是疑问副词,意为“什么时候;何时”,用来询问时间,既可询问某个时段或时刻,也可询问具体的日期。如:
—When is the soccer ball match?
足球比赛在什么时候?
—It’s September 15th. 在9月15号。
—When do you watch TV?
你什么时候看电视?
—At eight o’clock. 在八点钟。
Language Points
2. May 2nd(5月2日)是日期的表达法。表达具体日期通常为“月份+序数词”,月份首字母必须大写,书写时日期可以是序数词,也可以是基数词。如:
6月8日 June 8th 或 June 4
英语中表示具体年、月、日的方式通常有两种:“月+日+年”或“日+月+年”。年份要用逗号隔开。如:
2017年9月9日可表达为:September 9th, 2017或9th September, 2017
3. It’s on January 5th. 是1月5日。
1) 月份后有具体的日期时,前面的介词用on;若只有年、月就用介词in。如:
on May 22nd 在5月22日 in October 在10月
in 2017 在2017年
2) 该句中的it用来代指时间。如:
It’s August 1st today. 今天是8月1日。
It’s six o’clock now. 现在是6点钟。
Listen and repeat.
