情景导入
升入初中后,你的作息表大变样:6:30 起床,7:10 坐地铁去学校,晚上 9:30 前完成作业……如果英国笔友问你 "What time do you get up?",你可以回答:I usually get up at six thirty, and I take the subway to school at seven ten.
一句话里有两个"武器":时间表达(at six thirty)和频度副词(usually)。学会它们,你就能把一天 24 小时安排得明明白白地讲给全世界听。
核心词汇
日常活动短语:
| 短语 | 意思 | 例句 |
|---|---|---|
| get up | 起床 | I get up at six thirty. |
| have breakfast | 吃早饭 | She has breakfast at seven. |
| go to school | 上学 | We go to school by subway. |
| do homework | 做作业 | He does his homework at home. |
| go to bed | 上床睡觉 | I go to bed at nine thirty. |
频度副词(按频率从高到低):always(总是)> usually(通常)> often(经常)> sometimes(有时)> never(从不);时间词:o'clock(整点)、half(半)、past(过)、to(差)、a.m.(上午)、p.m.(下午)
句型与语法
核心句型:What time 问时间
- What time do you get up? — I get up at six thirty.
- What time does she go to bed? — She goes to bed at nine.(注意三单 does / goes)
钟点的两种读法:
- 7:15 → seven fifteen / a quarter past seven;7:30 → seven thirty / half past seven
- 7:45 → seven forty-five / a quarter to eight
- 规律:半小时以内用 past,超过半小时用 to;具体钟点前用介词 at → at 6:30 / at noon(中午)/ at night(夜里)。
频度副词的位置:be 动词后,实义动词前——She is always busy. / I usually take the subway.
听说训练
作息表问答(用自己的真实时间回答):
- A: What time do you get up on school days? — B: I usually get up at six thirty.
- A: How do you go to school? — B: I often take the subway. It's fast and clean.
- A: What time do you go to bed? — B: At about nine thirty. I never stay up late.
报时练习:家里的钟每到一个时刻,就用两种读法各说一遍,如 8:45 → eight forty-five / a quarter to nine。
辨析对比
① at / in / on 时间介词
- at + 具体钟点(at seven, at noon);in + 上午/下午/月/年(in the morning, in September);on + 具体某天(on Monday, on June 1st)。口诀:at 点 in 段 on 天。
② What time vs When:What time 专问钟点(— At 6:30.);When 问法更宽泛,可答钟点也可答日期:When do you have the school trip? — Next Friday.
③ sometimes 的"分身"
- sometimes = 有时(频度副词);sometime = 某个时候;some time = 一段时间。七年级重点掌握第一个,但见到后两个别慌。
文化角
英语国家常用 12 小时制 + a.m./p.m.:7 a.m. 是早上七点,7 p.m. 是晚上七点;而火车时刻表、机场航班常用 24 小时制(19:00)。杭州地铁首班车一般在 6 点左右,可以这样介绍:The first subway train in Hangzhou leaves at about 6 a.m.
易错点
- 钟点介词用错:I get up in six thirty. ❌ → I get up at six thirty. ✅
- 频度副词放错位置:I get up always at six. ❌ → I always get up at six. ✅(实义动词前)
- 三单遗忘:What time does he gets up? ❌ → What time does he get up? ✅(does 后原形)
- never 再加否定:I don't never stay up late. ❌ → I never stay up late. ✅(never 本身已否定)
中考真题
— What time does Mike usually get to school? — At a quarter ______ eight. Classes begin at eight o'clock, so he is never late.
A. past B. to C. at D. in
✏️ 点击查看解答
答案:B
解析:由 "Classes begin at eight o'clock, so he is never late."(八点上课,他从不迟到)可知,Mike 到校时间必须早于八点。a quarter to eight = 差一刻八点 = 7:45,符合语境;A 项 a quarter past eight = 8:15,已经迟到,矛盾。C、D 两项不构成钟点读法。
考点
- 时间读法(past/to、half、a quarter)是七上特色考点,听力和单选都爱考;
- 时间介词 at/in/on 的区分是初中三年反复出现的基础题,频度副词的位置与排序常考于语法填空;
- 书面表达:My Day / A Day in My Life 是七年级经典作文,按时间顺序 + 频度副词写作即成范文。
诵读 Read Aloud
Part 1 · 对话:采访作息(分角色朗读)
A: Hi, Jane! What time do you usually get up? — B: I usually get up at half past six. And I have breakfast at seven.
A: What time do you go to school? — B: At a quarter past seven. I always take the subway with my dad.
A: What time do your classes begin? — B: At eight o'clock. I'm never late for school.
Part 2 · 短文:A Day in My Life(作息范文)
I'm a middle school student in Hangzhou. On school days, I always get up at six thirty. After breakfast, I take the subway to school at seven ten. The subway is fast, so I never worry about being late. Classes begin at eight o'clock, and we have four classes in the morning. In the afternoon, I sometimes play basketball after class. I get home at about five thirty and do my homework. After dinner, my family often take a walk near the West Lake. I usually go to bed at nine thirty, because good sleep helps me study well.
诵读小贴士:Part 2 按"早晨 → 上午 → 下午 → 晚上"的时间轴展开,圈出所有频度副词和 at + 钟点,这就是"我的一天"作文的满分骨架。
