这个单元有 5 章:主题课文"Tom 在动物园"、词汇延展(动物词族 + 自然词族)、语法延展(现在进行时 be+doing + 比较级起步)、功能句型(描述动物与场景)、Movers 考点与自测。
学完你能:用 60+ 动物和自然词说清"谁在做什么";用现在进行时描述照片里正在发生的事;用 bigger/smaller/taller than 比较两个动物。
预计时间:1 周。
衔接说明:前三个单元学的都是"平时做什么"(一般现在时);本单元第一次学"正在做什么"(现在进行时)。Starters 只会说"The elephant is big",Movers 要能说"The elephant is drinking water. It's bigger than the monkey."
动物单元 = 动物词族 + 自然词族 + 现在进行时 + 比较级。课文带你逛动物园,词汇按"动物/自然/动作/形容词"分组,语法攻克"正在做什么"和"A 比 B 大"。
主题课文 · Tom 在动物园
课文 · A Day at the Zoo
课文精讲 · 描述照片的两步
论Movers 版"看图说话公式"
第 1 步:谁在做什么。The elephant is drinking water. The monkeys are climbing the trees.(be + doing)
第 2 步:比一比。The elephant is bigger than the monkey. The parrot is smaller than the eagle.(比较级 + than)
考试怎么考:Movers 听力 Part 1 常给一张动物园照片,让你听描述连线;读写也有"看图写正在发生的事"。抓 be + doing 就能锁定答案。
① be + doing 正在做(is drinking / are playing)
② bigger than 比…大(反义词 smaller than)
③ climb the tree 爬树
④ take photos 拍照
⑤ under a tree 在树下
词汇延展 · 动物词族 + 自然词族
四组词族
(可参看「动物自然词汇」深化页)| 组 | 核心词 | 搭配/备注 |
|---|---|---|
| 哺乳动物 | elephant, monkey, tiger, lion, panda, bear, giraffe, zebra, horse, dog, cat | 复数加 s(monkeys 特殊) |
| 鸟与虫鱼 | bird, parrot, eagle, duck, fish, insect, butterfly, bee | fish 单复数同形 |
| 自然景物 | tree, flower, river, mountain, forest, sky, sun, moon, water, grass | on the grass / in the river |
| 动作与形容词 | drink, play, climb, fly, sing, sleep, run, swim, big, small, fast, slow, strong, loud | -ing 形式表正在做 |
① monkey→monkeys:元音 + y 结尾直接加 s(不是 monkeys 的另一种)。baby→babies 才变 y 为 i。
② fish 单复数同形:one fish / two fish(不是 fishes)。
③ in the tree vs on the tree:外来的(鸟、猫)在树上用 in the tree;长在树上的(苹果)用 on the tree。
④ loud vs loudly:Movers 只考形容词 loud(It's loud),不考副词。
语法延展 · 现在进行时 + 比较级起步
现在进行时 be + doing
| 主语 | be 动词 | 例子 |
|---|---|---|
| I | am | I am taking photos. |
| He / She / It / The elephant | is | The elephant is drinking. |
| We / You / They / The monkeys | are | The monkeys are climbing. |
| 否定 | be + not + doing | The tiger isn't sleeping. |
| 疑问 | Be + 主语 + doing? | Is the tiger sleeping? |
① 不能丢 be 动词:The elephant drinking ❌ → The elephant is drinking ✅。中国孩子最常漏 is/are。
② run→running(双写 n):辅音 + 元音 + 辅音结尾,双写尾字母加 ing。swim→swimming, sit→sitting。
③ make→making(去 e):不发音 e 结尾去 e 加 ing。take→taking, ride→riding。
比较级起步 · 形容词 + er than
| 原级 | 比较级 | 例子 |
|---|---|---|
| small | smaller | The parrot is smaller than the eagle. |
| big | bigger(双写 g) | The elephant is bigger than the monkey. |
| fast | faster | The monkey is faster than the panda. |
| slow | slower | The turtle is slower than the rabbit. |
| tall | taller | The giraffe is taller than the horse. |
| loud | louder | The parrot is louder than the sparrow. |
① big→bigger(双写):重读闭音节双写尾字母。small→smaller 不双写(因为 l 前是元音 a,但 small 不是重读闭音节)。
② 比较级后面必须有 than:The elephant is bigger than the monkey,不能丢 than。
考试怎么考:"The tiger is ___ (big) than the cat." 填 bigger。

语法加码:Movers 学规则比较级;Flyers 加不规则比较级(good-better, bad-worse)和最高级(the biggest)。
现在就做:把 be+doing 练到不丢 is/are,走到 Flyers 动物单元会更轻松。
