Unit 5 Why do you like pandas？

Section A

1. Let’s see the pandas first.

让我们先看熊猫吧！

（1） 此句是祈使句，let’s用来表示征求对方意见或向对方提出建议。Let’s后的动词要用动词原形，句式结构为let sb （not） do sth，意为“让某人（不）做某事”，sb为人称代词时则用宾格。其肯定回答：OK/All right/That sounds good.否定回答：Sorry， but.../I’d love to， but...

比较：let’s与let us

Let’s是let us的缩写形式，但let’s指向对方提出建议，并且让对方和自己一起去做某事，包括说话者和听者双方，该句型后通常会加上shall me，表示进一步征求对方的意见。

Let us指向对方提出请求，征求对方的允许，因此不包括听者。该句型后通常会加上will you，表示进一步征求对方的意见。如：

Let’s have a rest， shall we？

让我们休息一下，好吗？

Let us have a rest， will you？

你就让我们休息一会儿吧，好吗？

（2） first adv.“首先，最初”，作状语，修饰动词或句子，可位于句首、句中或句尾。

First I want to think about it.

首先我想考虑一下。

When I first met her， she was a child.

当我初次见她时，她还是个孩子。

① first num.“第一”，前面常用定冠词the或形容词性物主代词。

She is always the first to come to school.

她总是第一个到学校的人。

② first adj. 首要的

For us， the first thing is to learn English well.

对我们来说首要的事就是学好英语。

2. kind of interesting

有几分趣味

kind of意为“有点儿，稍微”，用来修饰形容词或副词，相当于a little/a bit。

The little tiger is kind of dangerous.

那只小老虎有点危险。

The girl is kind of shy and she is afraid of speaking in front of people.

这个女孩有点害羞，她不敢在人前讲话。
