六、课文对话
Binbin

来看我的老照片!
Jiajia
Wow! You were short!
哇!你以前好矮!
Binbin
Yes. Before, I was short. Now I am tall.
对,以前矮,现在高了。
Jiajia
Could you ride a bike before?
你以前会骑车吗?
Binbin
No, I couldn't. Now I go cycling every day.
不会,现在我每天骑车。
Jiajia
That's good exercise.
那是很好的锻炼。
Binbin
Before, I didn't like sports. Now I love sports.
以前我不喜欢运动,现在喜欢。
Jiajia
You changed a lot!
你变化好大!
七、易错点
易错: was 用于 I/he/she/it;were 用于 you/we/they。
易错: couldn't = could not,后面加动词原形。
学会了就试一试
这一课,我会用了
学习目标:能用 Before... Now... 对比过去和现在,并区分 could 与 can。
自己说一说
设想一个虚构人物的成长变化:用 Before, I was... Now I am... 或 Before, I couldn't... Now I can... 说两句;无需分享真实旧照片。
答对至少三题,再完成“自己说一说”。
过几天再想一想
- 明天:不看页面,分别用 was 和 am 说出过去与现在。
- 三天后:换一个虚构人物,用 couldn't 和 can 对比一项能力。
