情景导入
周末,小雨跟妈妈去杭州大厦,遇到一位外国小朋友在文具店里着急地比划——他想买一支钢笔,可是不会说中文,店员阿姨也听不懂英文。
小雨勇敢地走上去:"Can I help you?"(需要帮忙吗?)
外国小朋友惊喜地说:"Yes! How much is this pen?"(这支钢笔多少钱?)
小雨问了店员,回答说:"It's ten yuan."(十元。)
一场"国际救援"圆满成功!今天我们就来学习这些购物场景中最实用的英语。
核心词汇
购物高频词:
| 单词/短语 | 音标 | 意思 |
|---|---|---|
| shop | /ʃɒp/ | 商店;购物 |
| buy | /baɪ/ | 买 |
| pen | /pen/ | 钢笔 |
| pencil | /ˈpensl/ | 铅笔 |
| eraser | /ɪˈreɪzə/ | 橡皮 |
| schoolbag | /ˈskuːlbæg/ | 书包 |
| yuan / dollar | — | 元 / 美元 |
| expensive | /ɪkˈspensɪv/ | 贵的 |
| cheap | /tʃiːp/ | 便宜的 |
联想记忆:eraser 里藏着 erase(擦除),-er 表示"……的东西"→ 擦东西的工具 = 橡皮。
句型与语法
第 1 招:问价格
- How much is this pen? (这支钢笔多少钱?)—— 问单数
- How much are these books? (这些书多少钱?)—— 问复数
- 回答:It's ten yuan. / They're twenty yuan.
第 2 招:表达想要
- I want a schoolbag. (我想要一个书包。)
- Can I have a look? (我能看看吗?)
第 3 招:评价与决定
- It's too expensive! (太贵啦!)
- It's cheap. I'll take it. (很便宜,我买了。)
小结构图解:
听说训练
完整购物对话跟读(可以和家长分角色扮演):
- A: Can I help you? (您需要点什么?)
- B: Yes, I want a pencil. (我想要一支铅笔。)
- A: What color do you like? (你喜欢什么颜色?)
- B: Blue. How much is it? (蓝色。多少钱?)
- A: Two yuan. (两元。)
- B: OK, I'll take it. Thank you! (好,我买了,谢谢!)
实战任务:下次去超市,试着在心里用英语说出 3 件商品的名字和"How much is it?"
辨析对比
| 句型 | 用来问 | 例句 |
|---|---|---|
| How much...? | 价格;不可数名词的量 | How much is the bag? / How much water? |
| How many...? | 可数名词的数量 | How many pens do you have? |
口诀:问钱问水用 much,数得清的用 many。
文化角
- 在英美超市,收银员常对你说 "Have a nice day!"(祝你今天愉快),回一句 "You too!" 就很地道;
- 美国用美元(dollar,符号 $),英国用英镑(pound,符号 £),我们用人民币(yuan,符号 ¥);
- 国外很多商店明码标价不还价,但集市(market)上可以说 "Can you make it cheaper?"(能便宜点吗?)。
易错点
- is / are 用错:How much is these books? ❌ → 复数要用 are:How much are these books? ✅
- 回答价格用错主语:问 How much is the pen? 答 They're... ❌ → 单数商品答 It's ten yuan. ✅
- want 后面直接加动词:I want buy a pen. ❌ → I want to buy a pen. ✅(四年级先记住 I want a pen. 最简单不会错)
考点
- 期末考试常见题型:情景对话排序(把打乱的购物对话排成正确顺序);
- 补全对话:根据答语 "It's five yuan." 反推问句是 "How much is it?";
- 听力考点:听对话选出正确的价格数字,注意 thirteen(13)和 thirty(30)的发音区别。
