音频

Warm Up

Discuss your ideas on the following questions.

●Do you think school should only serve healthy food to students?

●Do you think that students will choose healthy food if junk food is available?

●Do you think it’s important for young people to eat healthy food?

Dialogue

Listen to a conversation between two students.

Jessie: Hey, Michelle! Have you heard the rumors flying around campus?

Michelle: Nope, I’ve been preparing for the presentation next month. What’s so interesting?

Jessie: You didn’t know? The school is banning all fast food on campus, like hamburgers and soda.

Michelle: Wow, I did not know that. Well, I bet not so many people like the smell of that.

Jessie: You got that right. Actually it’s been debated for the past week. I’m kinda surprised that you didn’t know. What do you think though?

Michelle: If you ask me, it sounds like great news for the students.

Jessie: Really? How so?

Michelle: Well, we all know that junk food isn’t the best for our health. I read on the Internet that food like this is highly responsible for tons of diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and so on. I think this policy will create a healthier environment for students.

Jessie: Yeah, I guess you’re right.

Michelle: Besides, fast food can be a bit more expensive than eating at home, don’t you think? I don’t even understand why it’s so expensive anyway. It’s not healthy, and it doesn’t taste great. Imagine all the money that we could save on each meal. Speaking of which, I’ve always wanted to save up for a new computer by the end of this term.

Jessie: In that case, you’re one step closer to your goal, I guess.

Michelle: You bet!

Grammar Review

时态的把握

1. 一般现在时

标志:动词原形。

表达现在的一种状态,也表达客观真理和事实。

【例】I am a boy.

2. 现在进行时

标志:be动词+ing

表达现在正在发生的事,强调动作正在进行。

【例】I am watching a film.

3.现在完成时

标志:have/has+ 动词过去式形态

表示一个动作对现在及以后都还有影响。

【例】I have finished reading this novel.

4.一般过去时

标志:动词的过去形态(-ed,was,were,特殊形态)

表示一个过去动作的状态。注意:这个动作已经结束了。

【例】I was a soldier.

标志:过去时+ing

表示过去一个正在发生的动作。

【例】I was cooking dinner when the gas went off.

6.过去完成时

标志:had+过去时

表示一个动作在另一个动作之前发生。这意味着过去完成时的出现,必须伴随另一个过去的动作。如果过去完成时单独出现,则不正确。
