这个单元有 5 章：主题课文"Emily 的学校一天"、词汇延展（学校词族）、语法延展（一般现在时 + there is/are）、功能句型（描述学校与教室）、KET 考点与自测。
学完你能：用 90+ 个学校词汇聊科目、课表、教室，一般现在时（含第三人称单数 -s）和 there is/are 脱口而出，听懂听力里的课表信息。
预计时间：1 周。
前后衔接：上接 Unit 1（be/have got），下接 Unit 3 日常作息——学校生活是 KET 阅读和听力最常出现的场景。
先读 Emily 的课表故事带出科目词，再背学校词族，然后攻克"一般现在时 + there is/are"两大语法，最后练描述教室和考场题型。
主题课文 · Emily 的学校一天
课文 · My Favourite Subject
课文精讲 · 数字和时间的地雷
论课表题 = 数字题
时间表达：eight forty-five（8:45）、half past twelve（12:30）、three thirty（15:30）——KET 听力最爱考"几点上课/放学"。记住三套说法：eight forty-five（数字直读）、a quarter to nine（差一刻九点）、half past twelve（十二点半）。
频率表达：usually（通常）、always（总是）、on Monday and Wednesday（每周一和周三）——KET Reading Part 5 填词 60% 考这类时间/频率词。
为什么这样写：课文里故意把"喜欢/不喜欢"（like/don't like）、"有/没有"（there are）全用了一遍——这就是本单元语法点，第 3 章逐个拆。
① do an experiment 做实验（science 场景）
② have a break 休息（不能说 take a break？——KET 口语两者都行，have 更常用）
③ do my homework 做作业（固定搭配 do，不是 make）
④ go to the library 去图书馆（go to + 地点）
⑤ lots of books 很多书（lots of + 可数复数）
四组词族 · 科目、场所、人物、动作
| 组 | 核心词 | 搭配/备注 |
|---|---|---|
| 科目 | maths, English, science, history, geography, PE, art, music, IT, French | 首字母大写；PE 读两个字母 /ˌpiːˈiː/ |
| 场所 | classroom, library, playground, gym, canteen, laboratory, office, hall | in the classroom / at the library（注意介词搭配） |
| 人物 | teacher, student, pupil, headmaster, classmate, monitor | classmate（同班同学）≠ friend（朋友） |
| 学习动作 | study, learn, teach, revise, pass, fail, take an exam, do homework | take an exam 参加考试；pass/fail 通过/不及格 |
| 课表时间 | lesson, class, timetable, break, lunch, homework, subject, term | have a lesson / next term（下学期） |
① class 和 lesson：都有"课"的意思，但 class 侧重"班级/课堂"（in class 在课堂上），lesson 侧重"一节课的内容"（a maths lesson 一节数学课）。
② study 和 learn：study 是"系统地学"（study English 学英语），learn 是"学会某个技能"（learn to swim 学会游泳）。KET 完形最爱考这对。
③ do 还是 make：do homework（做作业）、do an exam（参加考试——英式）、make a mistake（犯错）。"做作业"永远是 do，写 make homework 是 KET 写作重灾区。
语法延展 · 一般现在时与 there is/are
一般现在时 · 三单 -s 是最大考点（可参看「一般现在时体系」深化页）
| 主语 | 肯定 | 否定 / 疑问 |
|---|---|---|
| I / you / we / they | I study science. They like football. | I don't like maths. Do you like English? |
| he / she / it | She studies science. He likes football. | She doesn't like maths. Does he like English? |
论三单 -s 的三种变法
① 直接加 -s：like → likes、play → plays。
② 辅音 + y 变 ies：study → studies、carry → carries（元音 + y 直接加：play → plays）。
③ ch/sh/s/x/o 结尾加 es：watch → watches、go → goes、do → does。
为什么总错：中文动词没有"第三人称单数加 -s"这回事——"他喜欢足球"和"我喜欢足球"的"喜欢"一模一样。英语里 He like football 是 KET 写作/完形第一高频错误。写完句子先问：主语是不是 he/she/it？是，动词就得挂 -s。
there is / there are · 描述教室里有什么（可参看「there be 句型」深化页）
| 肯定 | 否定 | 疑问 |
|---|---|---|
| There is a whiteboard in the classroom. | There isn't a computer. | Is there a computer? |
| There are thirty desks. | There aren't any posters. | Are there any posters? |
There are a teacher and twenty students. —— 不对！there be 句型看最近的名词：There is a teacher and twenty students.（a teacher 是单数，用 is，即使后面跟着一堆学生）。KET Reading Part 5 专考这个。
还有：否定句要加 any（There aren't any posters）——和 Unit 1 的 haven't got any 是同一套逻辑。
情景操练 · 描述你的教室
