【文化背景】“The Little Red Dot”

Singapore is a very small island just north of the equator(赤道), at the tip of the Malaysian Peninsula(马来西亚半岛). Some people have nicknamed it “The Little Red Dot” because it is so small that it often just appears as a little red dot on the map. It was originally part of the Federation of Malaysia but gained independence in 1965. It has a multi-racial(多种族的) population, with the Chinese being the largest group, followed by Malays and Indians. Singapore is home to the world’s largest observation wheel (the Singapore Flyer), the world’s largest aquarium (S.E.A. Aquarium), and the first wildlife night park (Night Safari).

探究二： 知识点解读

1.   For thousands of tourists from China, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful and safe place to take a holiday.

thousand  num.  一千。前面可以有one, two等具体数词修饰，这时thousand后不加“-s”。

thousand的复数形式thousands意为“数千；成千上万的，常和介词of连用，其前不可以受表示具体数字的词修饰。

类似用法的还有hundred；million；billion等。

(1)   我们学校有两千学生。 __________________________  

(2)  这个城市有成千上万的高楼大厦。__________________________ 

2. On the one hand,more than three quarters of the population are Chinese,….On the other hand,Singapore is an English-speaking country,…

on the one hand… on the other hand…一方面……另一方面…用于表示一个事情的两个方面。

English-speaking: “说英语的；英语为母语的；使用英语的”

这是英语中一种常见的形容词构词形式，即：由名词和动词的-ing形式组合而成。

(1)   她一方面教英语, 一方面学习汉语。 __________________________

(2)  一次采摘苹果之旅______________________ 

 quarter        n.     四分之一；一刻钟

 a quarter = one fourth 四分之一     three quarters 四分之三

    “数词+ quarter(s) of +名词”作主语时，若名词为复数形式，谓语动词用复数形式；若名词为单数形式或不可数名词，谓语动词用单数形式。 

英语中，分数的表达法为：分子是基数词，分母是序数词，分子大于1，分母用复数。

(1)   在中国三分之二的茶叶是在南方生产的。__________________________  

(2) 我们班三分之二的学生是女生。__________________________ 

3.   In Singapore, however, you'll find a lot of food from China; you won't have any problem getting rice, noodles or dumplings.

have problems (in) doing sth: 在做某事上有困难

类似的：

have difficulties/trouble (in) doing sth: 在做某事上有困难

have a hard time (in) doing sth: 在做某事上有困难

have fun (in) doing sth: 做某事很开心

(1)   我们把这些石头挖出来有困难。但还是做到了。__________________________  

(2) 他们上周末玩沙滩排球很开心。__________________________ 

4.It might seem strange to go to a zoo when it's dark.

seem: “似乎；好像”, 用作连系动词或不及物动词

常见用法:

(1)“主语+ seem +（to be ）+表语”，表语多为名词或形容词，有时是其他的词或短语 (以说明主语的特征或状态)

(2) “主语+ seem + 不定式” seem与不定式一起构成复合谓语

(3) “It seems + that从句” it 是形式主语，that引导主语从句

(1)   汤姆看上去是一个非常聪明的男孩。 __________________________  

(2)  今天他似乎很高兴。 __________________________

(3)  汤姆好像很熟悉我们的城市。________________________

5.So you can choose to go whenever you like — spring, summer, autumn or winter. And, of course, it's not too far from China!

whenever conj.在任何时候;无论何时。引导让步状语从句相当于no matter when。

  特殊疑问词+ever ：无论...

however, whenever, wherever,是疑问副词,引导让步状语从句。

whoever, whomever, whatever,是疑问代词,引导让步状语从句或名词性从句。

(1)   无论你去哪里，都不要忘记自己的家乡。 __________________________  

(2)  无论什么时候看到他，他总是笑着看着我。__________________________
