In Edmonton, the weather in March can be cold and snowy or warm and sunny. It’s a little wild. The temperature can be as low as -15℃, but it can also reach 15 ℃. Listen and read. 新课讲解 Still, sometimes it snows in April and May! The temperature drops below zero on those snowy days. We probably won’t see any flowers until May or June! After school today, we played outside. We played “snow” soccer. We had to wear our jackets and boots, but it was fun. Danny fell into the snow. Maybe next month we will play in our shorts and T-shirts! I like the Chinese name for winter jasmine. It’s interesting. Here, we have Groundhog Day on February 2 for the coming of spring. In spring, many families drive to the countryside on weekends. A popular place to go is sugar bush, it's so much fun to make syrup. I love spring because of all the fun activities. Also, summer follows it! Talk to you soon! Jenny Culture Tip Groundhog Day is on February 2. On that day, a small animal called a groundhog comes out of a hole in the ground. If it sees its shadow, then spring won’t come for another 6 weeks. But if the groundhog does not see its shadow, then spring is very close. How does a groundhog know It doesn’t. It’s just a very old tradition in North America. Language point 1 The temperature can be as low as -15℃. as...as意为“和……一样”,表示同级的比较。使用时要注意第一个as为副词,第二个as为连词。其基本结构为:as+ adj./ adv. +as。 e.g. This film is as interesting as that one. 这部电影和那部电影一样有趣。 e.g. Your pen writes as smoothly as mine. 你的钢笔书写起来和我的一样流畅。 其否定式为not as/so +adj./ adv. +as。 e.g. This dictionary is not as/so useful as you think. 这本字典不如你想象的那样有用。 若有修饰成分,如twice, three times, half, a quarter等,则须置于第一个as之前。 e.g. Your bag is twice as expensive as mine. 你的袋子比我的贵一倍。 Language point 2 We probably won’t see any flowers until May or June! until“直到”,表示某一种行为一直持续到某一时间。用在肯定句中,句子的谓语动词必须是可延续性的。 not...until“直到……才”表示直到某一时间,某一行为才发生,之前该行为并没有发生。用在否定句中,主句中的谓语可以是延续性的也可以是短暂性动词。 1.I studied English until 9 o’clock last night. 我咋晚学英语一直学到9点钟。 (表示9点前一直在学) 2. I did not study English until 9 o’clock last night. 我咋晚直到9点钟才学英语。 (表示9点才开始学) 3. I waited for five hours until it was dark. I had to give it up. 4. I didn’t go to sleep until 11 o ... ...
