情景导入
周末,Zhang Peng 和 Sarah 一起去动物园。
刚进门,Sarah 就指着大象喊:"Look at the elephant! It's so big!"(看这头大象,好大呀!)
Zhang Peng 补充:"Yes! It has a long nose."(是啊,它有长长的鼻子。)
走到长颈鹿馆,两人抬头看:"Wow, the giraffe is so tall! The deer is short."
大大小小、高高矮矮、胖胖瘦瘦——用英语描述动物,这一课全学会。

句型与语法
句型一:它好……呀!——It's so + 形容词
- It's so big! (它好大呀!)
- It's so tall! / It's so fat! (好高!/ 好胖!)
- so 表示"非常、好",加强语气,说的时候要读重一点。
句型二:它有……——It has + 形容词 + 身体部位
- It has a long nose. (它有长长的鼻子。)
- It has big ears and small eyes. (它有大耳朵和小眼睛。)
- 主语是 it(动物),动词用 has,不是 have!
引起注意:Look at...
- Look at the elephant! (快看那头大象!)
- Look at its tail! (看它的尾巴!)
- its 表示"它的",its tail = 它的尾巴。
单数部位加 a,复数部位不加:
- It has a long nose. (鼻子一个,加 a)
- It has long ears. (耳朵两只,用复数,不加 a)
听说训练
动物园导游问答(和同伴练一练):
- A: Look at the giraffe! (快看长颈鹿!)
- B: Wow! It's so tall! (哇,它好高呀!)
- A: Look at the monkey. It's thin. (看猴子,它瘦瘦的。)
- B: Yes, and it has a long tail! (对,它还有一条长尾巴!)
猜动物游戏:It's fat. It's black and white. It has small eyes. What is it? — It's a panda!
辨析对比
- tall(高)↔ short(矮):长颈鹿 tall,梅花鹿 short——short 还能表示"短",a short tail(短尾巴);
- fat(胖)↔ thin(瘦):熊猫 fat,猴子 thin——记住"胖瘦一对,高矮一对";
- big(大)↔ small(小):说整体大小用 big / small,说高矮用 tall / short;
- has 还是 have:It / He / She 用 has,I / You / We / They 用 have——动物是 it,所以 It has a long nose。
文化角
英语里有很多好玩的动物比喻:as tall as a giraffe(像长颈鹿一样高)、as fat as a pig(胖得像猪)。夸人记性好会说 an elephant never forgets(大象从不忘事)——西方人相信大象记性特别棒!
世界上许多城市都有动物园,大熊猫是最受欢迎的"明星"之一。海外动物园的熊猫馆常常挂着中文名字,比如"Bao Bao""Bei Bei",外国小朋友也跟着学中文发音呢。
易错点
- it 后用 have:It have a long nose. ❌ → It has a long nose. ✅(三单用 has)
- 单数部位丢 a:It has long nose. ❌ → It has a long nose. ✅
- it's 和 its 混淆:Look at it's tail. ❌ → Look at its tail. ✅(its 是"它的",没有撇号)
- 形容词配错对象:说大象"高"用 tall ❌ → 大象强调"大",用 It's so big. ✅(长颈鹿才说 tall)
考点
- It's so + 形容词 与 It has + 部位 两大句型(必考);
- 三对反义词:tall / short、fat / thin、big / small(连线与选词高频);
- 形容词拼写:giraffe / elephant / tail(高频听写词);
- has 与 have 的选择(it 作主语用 has);
- 看图描述动物:Look at the... It's... It has...(写话高频模板)。
