birthday noodles with eggs. Long noodles are a symbol of
long life. Every year, my family and I take a photo together
under the big tree in our village. I like taking photos because

Making New Friends

at School

Hello, boys and girls! Do you like to make

new friends at school? Yes? Here’s some of my advice.

First, don’t be shy! Try to talk to all of your classmates. Smile and say, “Hello! What’s
your name?” If you didn’t hear the name clearly, try, “Sorry, can you repeat that for
me, please?” Then give your name and say, “Nice to meet you!” It’s really as simple
as that! It’s important to get people’s names right. If you get them wrong, they might
feel sad!

Second, ask questions! Ask about school, sport, music, and more! As you listen, think
of more questions to ask. So when your classmate stops talking, you can jump in and
ask another question! But remember, you have to be a good listener before you can
ask good questions.

Last, don’t forget to share! Tell your classmates something interesting about yourself.
Then your new friends can get to know you too! Soon enough, you’ll be the best of
friends!

I hope you find my advice helpful! Now go make some new friends!

Family Ties in Names

Hello! My name is Alan, and I’m from the UK. Here most people have a first, middle,
and last name. My full name is Alan Luke Wood. Alan is my first name, Luke is my
middle name, and Wood is my last name. We also call the last name a “family name”
or “surname”.

My grandfather also has three names. His full name is George Charles Wood. My
father’s name is the same as my grandfather’s. Can you guess why? It shows great
respect to my grandfather. People call my father George Charles Wood Junior, and
they call my grandfather George Charles Wood Senior.

My mother’s name was Linda Grant, but now her name is Linda Wood. Why is
that? Because in the UK, a woman often changes
her family name to her husband’s family name.
Sometimes, however, the woman’s last name and
the man’s last name are joined together. This allows
both family names to live on.

Names show family ties. What do you think?

1 Read the text and circle the correct words to complete the sentences.
1. Luke is Alan’s middle name / family name.
2. In the UK, most/all people have three names.
3. Alan’s father’s last name is Junior / Wood.
4. Alan’s mother’s family name is now Grant / Wood.

My Floating
School

My name is Sadia Khatun. I’m from

Bangladesh. It’s difficult to walk
on some roads in the rainy season
here. So how do I go to school? It’s
easy! The school comes to me! I
study on a “floating school”.

My floating school is a “school bus” and classroom all in one. The boat picks me up
early in the morning. Our classroom is on the boat too. There are several boats on
the river at the same time. Each boat has one teacher and one class. The teacher
teaches us all the subjects.

The boat is long and wide. We sit at wooden desks. Big windows bring in lots of
sunlight and fresh air. There’s a blackboard at the front. There’s a computer next to
it, and it gets its power from the sun. At the end of the school day, the boat takes me
home.

I learn a lot at my school and have fun too. I love my floating school!

1 What is true about Sadia’s floating school? Tick the correct statements.
The “floating school” is open in the rainy season.
The boat picks students up in the morning.

Alice’s Vlog: My Drama Club

Hello! My name is Alice. Welcome to my drama club!

This is Mr Ford, our drama teacher. Mr Ford is very nice, and he always has great ideas.
He helps me so much!

And these are my friends at the drama club. We always have a good time! After
practice, we often have pizza. Check out this photo! Mmm … Yummy!

My parents often come to our shows. They

record the shows, and we watch them on TV
later. Hereʼs a clip from our last show. Thatʼs
me with the blonde hair! I look cute, donʼt I?

The drama club can be hard when I have to

remember a lot of lines, but it helps me to
understand a lot more about the plays. Iʼm
usually very shy, but when Iʼm in a play, I no
longer feel afraid. Now I’m brave enough to
talk, and even sing, in front of lots of people.

I love my drama club—it’s never boring.

本套教材七年级上、下册以及八年级上册设计了“音素学习—由字母及字母组合到读
音—由读音到字母及字母组合”三轮拼读规则训练，以及一些基本的朗读技巧训练，帮助
同学们打好语音基础。

一、26个字母的发音

Aa /eI/ Bb /bi:/ Cc /si:/ Dd /di:/

Ee /i:/ Ff /ef/ Gg /dZi:/ Hh /eItS/
Ii /aI/ Jj /dZeI/ Kk /keI/ Ll /el/

Uu /ju:/ Vv /vi:/ Ww /dVblju:/ Xx /eks/
Yy /waI/ Zz /zed/ (/zi:/)

二、音素
英语共有 44 个音素，其中元音 20 个，辅音 24 个。英语辅音和元音的作用相当于汉
语中的声母和韵母。记录英语音素的符号叫作音标，音标放在两条斜线（/ /）内，以免和
字母混淆。
1. 元音
/i:/ /I/ /e/ /{/ /3:/ /@/ /A:/ /V/ /O:/ /Q/ /u:/ /U/
/eI/ /aI/ /OI/ /@U/ /aU/ /I@/ /e@/ /U@/
注：/i/ 是 /I/ 的音位变体， /u/ 是 /U/ 的音位变体，这两个变体音 /i/ 和 /u/ 是弱读
音，出现在非重读音节中。
2. 辅音
清音 /p/ /t/ /k/ /f/ /T/ /s/ /S/ /tS/ /h/
浊音 /b/ /d/ /g/ /v/ /D/ /z/ /Z/ /dZ/
/m/ /n/ /N/ /l/ /r/ /w/ /j/

92 Pronunciation
三、朗读基本知识
1. 单词重音（Word Stress）
英语单词有单音节词、双音节词和多音节词之分。含有一个响亮音素的声音片段叫
作一个音节。英语里的元音都是响亮的音素。由一个音节构成的词叫作单音节词，如 hi、
mum、dad、first、meet。由两个或两个以上音节构成的词称为双音节词或多音节词。
对于双音节词或多音节词，有的音节须读得重些，叫作重读音节；有的音节要读得轻些，
叫作非重读音节。重读音节用重音符号“  ”标出。
（1） 双 音 节 词 的 重 音 一 般 落 在 第 一 个 音 节 上， 如 jacket 、question
、sweater (r)。
（2）少数双音节词的重音在第二个音节上，如 excuse 、July 、
about  。
（3） 三 音 节 词 的 重 音 一 般 也 在 第 一 个 音 节 上， 如 favourite 、vegetable
、interesting 。
（4）少数三音节词的重音在第二个音节上，如 computer (r)、tomato
、December (r)。
（5）有的双音节词和多音节词有两个重音，一个是主重音，另一个是次重音。次重音
用“  ”表示，标在次重音的左下方。如 thirteen 、fifteen 、afternoon
。
2. 连读（Linking）
在同一个意群中，前后相连的两个单词之间，前一个单词末尾的辅音和后一个单词词
首的元音有时可连起来读，这种现象被称为连读。连读现象是在语言交际中，特别是随着
语速的加快而自然产生的，可用符号“ ”表示。常见的连读情况有以下两种。
（1）辅音 + 元音
当前一个词的词尾是辅音，后一个词以元音开头时，这两个词可以连读。例如：
It’s a good idea. Come on, Jack! Is it on the desk?

Look at it. Let me get it. Can you play games with us?

（2）r / re + 元音
当前一个词的词尾是 r 或 re，后一个词的词首是元音时，这两个词可以连读，中间增
加一个  音。例如：
Ask

the teacher for it.

I need a pair of sports shoes for school.

Pronunciation 93
 3. 不完全爆破（Incomplete Plosion）
在单词或语句中，当三对爆破音 // 和 //、// 和 //、// 和 // 之中任何两个相
邻时，或当爆破音与一些别的辅音相邻时，第一个爆破音只按发音部位形成阻碍，但不发
生爆破，稍停即发出后一个辅音，这种现象被称为不完全爆破。例如：

4. 句子重音（Sentence Stress）
英语中每个独立的词都有词的重音，但在连贯言语中有些词就失去重音了，这是因
为并非所有的词在语句中都有同等的重要性。一般来说，名词、动词、形容词和副词等重
读，而冠词、连词、介词、人称代词、助动词、情态动词肯定式等不重读。例如：
（1）A: I can sing, but I can’t dance.
（2）A: Does she like history?
B: No, she doesn’t.
（3）A: What time do you usually get up?
B: At eight thirty in the morning.
5. 语调（Intonation）
在说话或朗读时声调的抑扬叫作语调。英语的基本语调分为“降调”和“升调”两
种，主要表现为语句末尾语调的降与升，用语调符号“ ”
（指降调）或“ ”
（指升调）
来表示。
英语语调变化非常丰富。初学者要首先了解这两个基本语调的主要用法。
（1）降调一般用于：
A. 陈述句 It’s time to get up.
B. 特殊疑问句 When does he go to bed?
C. 祈使句 Don’t run in the hallways.
D. 感叹句 What a nice day!
（2）升调一般用于：
A. 一般疑问句 Can we bring music players to school?
B. 选择疑问句 or 前的部分 Is his hair long or short?

98 Grammar
六、动词（Verbs）
动词表示动作或状态。动词的人称和数一般必须与主语的人称和数一致。动词是词
类中最复杂的一种，不同语法书的动词分类有所不同。此处简要介绍系动词（linking
verb）、实义动词（full verb）、助动词（auxiliary verb）和情态动词（modal verb）。
1. 系动词
系动词是连接主语和表语的动词，不能独立作谓语，必须与其后的表语一起构成谓语。
常见的系动词有 be（am、is、are）、look、get、turn 等。例如：
I am 12 years old.
Maths is very useful in our life.
They are carrot plants.
You look happy today.
The day gets longer in summer.
Trees turn green in spring.
2. 实义动词
实义动词意义完全，能独立作谓语。例如：
I play tennis with my friends after school.
My father likes fishing a lot.
What time do you usually get up?
3. 助动词
助动词本身无词汇意义或意义不完全，不能独立作谓语，它们只能和实义动词一起构成
各种时态、语态、语气，以及否定和疑问结构。常见的助动词有 be、do、have、will 等。例如：
Do you want to be my friend?
I don’t have a brother.
Where does Peter spend most of his time at school?
4. 情态动词
情态动词表示说话人的语气和情态，不能独立作谓语，只能和主要动词一起构成谓语。
常见的情态动词有 can、may、could、must、have to、should、would 等，其后动词使
用原形。情态动词一般没有人称和数的变化，它的否定式一般是在其后加 not 构成，在
一般疑问句中通常将其提到句首。例如：
She can speak a little French.
He can’t swim.
Can you come to my party?
May I have your name?

Grammar 99
 本册主要学习情态动词 can 表示“能力”的用法。该情态动词在不同句式中的用法

疑问式和回答
What instruments can Teng Fei play? He can play the drums.

七、介词（Prepositions）
介词一般用于名词或代词前，表示该词与句中其他成分的关系。介词后面的名词或
代词称为介词宾语。介词宾语若是人称代词，则要用宾格。介词和介词宾语合在一起构
成介词短语。
1. 表示时间的介词
表示时间的介词主要有 at、on 和 in，它们的用法多样。
表 7 表示时间的介词 at、on 和 in

九、句子种类（Sentence Types）
英语句子按照用途可分为陈述句、疑问句、祈使句和感叹句四类，此处重点介绍陈
述句和疑问句。
1. 陈述句
陈述句包括肯定结构和否定结构。在肯定结构中，谓语动词不含否定词。在否定结
构中，系动词 be、助动词或情态动词后加 not（常用缩略形式），或用 no、never 等词
表示。陈述句句末用句号。

I can run fast. I can’t jump high.
2. 疑问句
疑问句包括一般疑问句、特殊疑问句、选择疑问句和附加疑问句。疑问句句末用问号。
此处重点介绍一般疑问句和特殊疑问句。
（1）一般疑问句
一般疑问句是用提问的方式提供一些信息，要求对方用 yes 或 no 回答的一种疑问句。
答语中通常重复问句里的系动词 be、助动词或情态动词，完全否定时口语中通常使用缩
略形式（如 aren’t、doesn’t、can’t）。例如：
A: Is this your brother?
B: Yes, it is. / No, it isn’t.
A: Do they have a pet dog?
B: Yes, they do. / No, they don’t.
A: Does she like maths?
B: Yes, she does. / No, she doesn’t.
A: Can you help me with this subject?
B: Yes, I can. / No, I can’t.
一般疑问句的回答有时可以省去 yes 或 no，或者补充更多信息。例如：
A: Can I learn to play weiqi?
B: Sure, you can.
A: Do you want to join a club?
B: Yes, I want to join the music club.
（2）特殊疑问句
特殊疑问句是以特殊疑问词开始的以寻求信息为目的的疑问句。常见的特殊疑问词
包括 what（什么）、who（谁）、whose（谁的）、where（在哪里）、when（何时）、
why（为什么）、how（如何）等。例如：
A: What’s your name?
B: My name is Peter Brown.
A: Who’s she?
B: She’s my sister, Helen.
A: Whose piano is that?
B: It’s my mother’s.

104 Grammar
 A: Where’s Ms Gao’s office?
B: Her office is in the teachers’ building.
A: When is your birthday?

A: Why do you like history?
B: Because it’s exciting to learn about the past.
A: How do you spell your name?
B: P-E-T-E-R, Peter. B-R-O-W-N, Brown.
在特殊疑问句中，疑问词与后面的系动词 be 或助动词常用缩略形式，如 what’s、
who’s、where’s。
特殊疑问句既可以使用完整答语（其中名词常用代词替代），也可以只回答提问部分。
例如：
A: What’s your favourite subject?
B: Maths. (= My favourite subject is maths.)
A: How much are those oranges?
B: Six yuan a kilo. (= They’re six yuan a kilo.)

十、存现句（There be Structure）
“There is / are ＋某物 / 某人＋某地 / 某时”结构表示“某地或某时有某物或某人”。
在这一结构中，there 没有实际意义，常弱读成 //。句子中的系动词 be 和后面的名词
在数的方面必须保持一致。
表 13 一般现在时中存现句的肯定式、否定式、疑问式和简略回答
句式 例句

There is a nice library behind There are some pictures of

肯定式
the classroom building. famous people on the wall.

There is not (isn’t) any water There are not (aren’t) any
否定式
in the bottle. students in the classroom today.

Is there a whiteboard in your Are there any plants or flowers

classroom? in the room?
疑问式和简略回答
Yes, there is. Yes, there are.
No, there is not (isn’t). No, there are not (aren’t).
注：在存现句中，在有并列主语的情况下，往往根据第一个主语的单复数来确定系
动词 be 的形式。例如：
There is a pen and two books on the desk.
There are two boys and a girl in the room.
