二、固定搭配和重点句型
1．He 1895.
be born出生于（be用过去时态形式was或were，因为人的出生多为发生在过去的事，所以用一般过去时）
The great pianist was born 那位伟大的钢琴家出生在1890年十月十日。 －Where were you born? 你在哪儿出生的？
－I was born in Beijing． 我出生在北京。
be born 后可接时间也可接地点，但接时间时，要根据具体时间而选定不同的介词。 I was born in 1991. I was born in March. I was born in March, 1991.
I was born on March, 5th. I was born on March. 5th, 1991.
2．How long did Charles Osborne hiccup?He hiccupped for 69 years 5 months.【Radio,Beijing,was,born,on,March,1,1992,when,the】
“How long” 是就一段时间进行提问，因此回答时用for后面加一段持续的时间。 -- How long did he learn English? 他学英语多久了？
-- He learned English for ten years. 他学英语十年了。
3．You are never too young to start doing things.你永远不会小到不能做事情的地步。
太…而不能，句型为“too＋形容词或副词原级＋”，译为“太…而（以致）不能…”。“too…to…”本身已含有否定的意思，因此，不定式前一般不加not． She is too youngto go to school． （×）
She is too young to go to school． （√）
4．Tiger Woods started golfing when he was only ten months old.【Radio,Beijing,was,born,on,March,1,1992,when,the】
