1. —How often do you watch TV? 你多久看一次电视?
—Twice a week. 一周两次。
【点拨】 how often意为“多久一次”,是表示频度的词组,一般用表示频度的时间副词或短语every day, usually, sometimes, never, once a week, twice a month等来回答。表示“次数”时,“一次”用once,“两次”用twice,“三次”以上用“基数词 + times”来表示。
2. She says its good for my health. 她说对我的身体有好处。
【点拨】 be good for ... 意为“对……有益”。be good at... 意为“擅长……,对……学得好”。例如:
To drink more water every day is good for you. 每天多喝水对你有好处。
3. How many hours do you sleep every night? 你每晚睡多少个小时?
【点拨】 how many意为“多少”,后面要接复数可数名词。例如:
How many books do you have? 你有多少本书?
4. I hardly ever exercise. 我几乎不锻炼。

I can hardly believe it. 我几乎不能相信这件事。
5. I look after my health. 我照顾好我的身体健康。
【点拨】 look after是一个短语动词,意为“照顾、照料”,与take care of的意思相同。例如:
She is looking after her brother at home. 她正在家照看弟弟。
6. So maybe Im not healthy, although I have one healthy habit. 虽然我有一个健康的习惯,但有可能我并不健康。
【点拨】 although(=though)意为“虽然、即使”,是一个从属连词,用来引导让步状语从句,但不可与but连用;若句子中用了but,也就不能再用although了。例如:
Although she is in poor health, she works hard. (= She is in poor health, but she works hard.) 尽管她身体不好,但她还是努力工作。
7. Maybe you have too much yin. 也许你阴气过盛。
【点拨】 too much意为“太多”,用来修饰不可数名词。例如:

8. You should go to bed early for a few nights. 你应该早睡几个晚上。
【点拨】 few与a few修饰复数可数名词,little与a little修饰不可数名词;few与little含有否定意义,a few与a little含有肯定意义。
9. I study late every night, sometimes until 2 am. 我每天晚上学习到很晚,有时到凌晨两点。
【点拨】 句中until是一个介词,意为“直到……”,后面接表示时间点的词语。until除了可作介词外,还可用作连词,引导时间状语从句。与not连用时可构成“直到……才……”句型。例如:
I will wait here until you come back. 我将在这儿等到你回来。
I didnt go to bed until 11
oclock last night. 我昨天晚上直到11点才睡觉。
10. Im sorry to hear that youre not feeling well. 很抱歉听说你感觉不好。
【点拨】 当听到对方/别人有病或感觉不好的消息时,一般可用Im sorry to hear that.(或that从句),来安慰对方。例如:
Im sorry to hear that he has died. 听说他去世了,我感到很难过。
11. —How long are you staying? 你要在那儿呆多长时间?
—Just for four days. 只四天。
【点拨】 how long意为“多久”,用来对一段时间进行提问。例如:
How long have you been here? 你在这儿呆多久了?
12. I just finished making my last movie. 我刚拍完我的最后一部电影。
【点拨】 动词finish, enjoy等后面要跟动词-ing形式作宾语,不可接动词不定式。例如:
Have you finished reading the book? 你看完这本书了吗?
13. How far is it from your home to school? 从你家到学校有多远?
【点拨】 how far是一个固定短语,意为“多远”,一般用来对距离进行提问。例如:

14. In China, it depends on where you are. 在中国,它取决你住在哪儿。
【点拨】 depend是不及物动词,常与介词on连用,组成depend on短语,意为“依靠、视……而定、取决于”,后面可接宾语。例如:

15. Maybe another time. 也许另一个时间。
【点拨】 another可用作代词或形容词,指三者以上或不确定数量中的任意一个人或物,意为“另一个,再一个”。后面可接单数名词或one。例如:
Would you like another apple? 你还再要一个苹果吗?
the other也有“另一个”的意思,但指两者中的另一个,有特定的数量范围,是特指。例如:
My uncle has two children. One is a son, the other is a daughter. 我叔叔有两个孩子,一个儿子,另一个是女儿。
16. Oh, why not?噢,为什么不呢?
【点拨】 “Why not?”意为“为什么不……?”、“为什么不行呢?”,来反问对方为什么不能去。
17. Taras shorter than Tina. 泰拉比蒂娜矮。
Tom is more athletic than Sam. 汤姆比萨姆的体格强健。
【点拨】 单音节形容词的比较级是在词尾加-er构成,多音节形容词的比较级是在前面加more构成;very, quite等只可用来修饰原级,much, far, a little等可用来修饰比较级。例如:
I am a little taller than you. 我比你高一点。
This bike is more expensive than yours. 这辆自行车比你的贵。
