系動(dòng)詞Be(am, is, are)的用法:
1.基本形式:am、are、is
(1)am
第一人稱I+am (注意:“I”無(wú)論何時(shí)都要大寫,不管位于句首還是句中)
例:I am a beautiful girl. I am twenty.
I am 還可縮寫成I'm。 如:I'm David. 我是大衛(wèi)。
但是am與not不能縮寫。
(2)are
第二人稱you+are; 一人稱復(fù)數(shù)we+are; 三人稱復(fù)數(shù)they+are 其他復(fù)數(shù)名詞+are
(注意:第二人稱單復(fù)數(shù)同形,都為you)
例:You are my good friend. We are in the same class.
They are on the road. The books are on the desk.
are與主語(yǔ)還可縮寫。如:
We are= We're, They are =They're, You are = You're。而are與 not可縮寫成aren't。
(3)is
第三人稱he(男) +is ; she(女)+is; it(不是人)+is;其他單數(shù)名詞+is
例:HeShe is a good student. It is a white cat. A dog is on that street.
is也可與主語(yǔ)縮寫,如:
He is = He's, My mother is = My mother's等。但是This is不可縮寫。而is與not可縮寫成 isn't。
如:This isn't a book. 這不是一本書。
2.請(qǐng)記住以下口訣:
我用am,你用are,is連著他,她,它;
單數(shù)名詞用is,復(fù)數(shù)名詞全用are。
變疑問(wèn),往前提,句末問(wèn)號(hào)莫丟棄。
變否定,更容易,be后not莫忘記。
疑問(wèn)否定任你變,句首Am,Is,Are大寫莫遲疑,句末問(wèn)號(hào)莫忘加。
