PET 单元 4 · Travel & Holidays

这个单元有 5 章:主题课文"一次说走就走的海边之旅"、词汇延展(旅行词族 + 交通住宿)、语法延展(一般过去时讲经历 + might 表推测)、功能句型(问路与描述一次旅行)、PET 考点与自测。

学完你能:用 60+ 旅行词(destination / accommodation / excursion / souvenir / itinerary)按时间顺序讲清一次旅行的起承转合;用 last summer / two years ago 把故事用一般过去时串起来;用 might / may 对"接下来会发生什么"做合理推测。

预计时间:1 周。

衔接说明:KET 里你学过简单的 go/went/was 和一些交通词。本单元把"讲一次经历"这件事做系统——这是 PET 写作 Part 2(故事)和口语 Part 1(Tell me about a holiday)的核心能力,也是 FCE 记叙文的地基。

本单元思维导图 · 从讲一次经历到推测未来

旅行单元 = 旅行词族 + 一般过去时讲故事 + might 推测。课文带你看 16 岁的 Leo 去年夏天和爸爸去海边,飞机延误、民宿没订到、最后却玩得最开心——一个完整的"起承转合"故事。

主题课文 · 一次说走就走的海边之旅

A Trip That Almost Went Wrong
原创课文,16 岁的 Leo 回忆去年夏天的海边旅行。PET 写作 Part 2 常要求"写一个故事",口语 Part 1 常问"Tell me about a holiday you remember"。注意加粗的一般过去时动词和 might 推测——第 3 章逐个拆。

课文 · The Best Holiday We Nearly Missed

Last summer, my dad and I decided to drive to the coast. We planned everything carefully: we booked the accommodation, we checked the route, and we even packed the tent. But on the first morning, it rained heavily, and the main road was closed because of a storm. We might have turned round and gone home — my dad almost did. Instead, we changed our plan and took a small road through the mountains. It was the most beautiful drive I have ever seen. When we finally arrived at the beach, the sun came out. We stayed in a cheap little flat near the harbour, and every morning we walked along the front and ate fresh fish for lunch. One afternoon, we took a boat excursion to a small island. The water was so clear that we could see fish swimming under the boat. I bought a wooden souvenir for my mum, and my dad took hundreds of photos. On the way back, my dad said, "You know, the storm was the best thing that happened to us." He was right. Sometimes the trip that goes wrong is the one you remember best.
去年夏天,我和爸爸决定开车去海边。我们把一切都计划好了:订了住处、查了路线,甚至连帐篷都收拾了。但第一天早上,雨下得很大,主干道因为暴雨封了。我们差点掉头回家——我爸差点就那么干了。最后我们改了计划,走了一条穿过山路的小道。那是我见过最美的一段车程。等我们终于开到海边,太阳出来了。我们住在港口附近一间便宜的小公寓里,每天早上沿着海滨散步,午饭吃新鲜的鱼。有一天下午,我们坐船去一个小岛。水清亮得能看见船底下的鱼游。我给妈妈买了个木雕纪念品,我爸拍了几百张照片。回去的路上,爸爸说:"你知道吗,那场暴雨是我们遇到的最好的事。"他是对的。有时候,出了岔子的旅行,反而是你记得最牢的那一次。
本课核心词:coast, accommodation, route, storm, harbour, excursion, souvenir, tent, drive, book, pack, arrive, clear, fresh fish, on the way back

课文精讲 · B1 版"讲故事"四步

论从"我去了海边"到"一个有起伏的故事"

KET 版:I went to the beach. It was sunny. I swam.——流水账,没有起伏。

PET 版(故事弧线):① 起因(We decided to drive / we booked everything);② 波折(it rained / the road was closed / we might have gone home);③ 转折(we changed our plan / the sun came out);④ 高潮 + 感悟(the water was so clear... / Sometimes the trip that goes wrong is the one you remember best)。

考试怎么考:PET 写作 Part 2 二选一:写一篇文章或写一个故事。故事类题目("Write a story ending with: ...")就靠这个四步弧线——有波折、有转折、有感悟,100 词刚好讲完。

记
这一章要记住的 5 个旅行搭配

① book the accommodation 订住处(book a hotel / book a ticket)

② pack (the suitcase) 收拾行李

③ take a boat excursion 乘船出游

④ on the way back 在回来的路上

⑤ the main road was closed 主干道封闭(道路场景高频)

02

词汇延展 · 旅行词族与交通住宿

Travel Words & Transport
KET 阶段你只会 bus / train / hotel。PET 要把旅行这件事做细:目的地类型、住宿类型、交通方式、途中的麻烦(延误/取消/迷路)。这些词在阅读 Part 2(找合适的旅行)和听力 Part 3(一段旅行计划谈话)里反复出现。

旅行四组词族

(可参看「旅行词族」深化页)
PET 旅行主题高频词
类别核心词搭配/备注
目的地coast, beach, mountain, countryside, city centre, harbour, island, destinationa popular destination 热门目的地
住宿hotel, accommodation, flat, campsite, youth hostel, B&B不可数 accommodation
交通flight, coach, ferry, route, motorway, passenger, luggage, suitcaseluggage 不可数(行李)
途中麻烦delay, cancel, closed, lost, miss the train, traffic jamOur flight was delayed.

不规则动词过去式 · 讲故事必备

旅行故事高频不规则动词
原形过去式例句
gowentWe went to the coast.
taketookWe took a small road.
comecameThe sun came out.
buyboughtI bought a souvenir.
seesawWe saw fish under the boat.
drivedroveWe drove to the beach.
getgotWe got to the beach at noon.
findfoundWe found a cheap flat.
高频陷阱

① accommodation / luggage 不可数:不说 an accommodation / luggages;要说 some accommodation / a piece of luggage。

② trip / travel / journey 区别:travel 泛指旅行(不可数/动词);trip 一次具体出行(a day trip);journey 一段路程(the long journey)。

③ arrive 后面介词:arrive in + 大地方(in the city);arrive at + 小地方(at the beach / at the station)。

④ spend 过去式还是 spent:不是 spended——spend-spent-spent。

03

语法延展 · 一般过去时讲经历 + might 推测

Past Simple & might
两块 PET 核心:一般过去时你在 KET 学过规则动词,但 PET 要求不规则动词张口就来、讲故事能按时间线串起来;might 是情态动词家族的新成员,用来对"现在或未来"做不确定推测。

一般过去时 · 时间线与标志词

讲一次经历的时间标志
标志词意思例句
last summer / last week去年夏天/上周Last summer, we went to the coast.
...ago…以前We booked the flat two days ago.
yesterday / on the first morning昨天/第一天早上It rained on the first morning.
then / after that / on the way back然后/之后/回来路上Then we took a small road.
过去时 vs 现在完成时(本单元最易混)

一句话判断:有具体过去时间(last summer / yesterday / ...ago)→ 一般过去时(We went last summer);只说"曾经去过"、不给时间 → 现在完成时(I have been to the coast——见 Unit 1)。

课文对照:Last summer we went to the coast(有 last summer → 过去时);It is the most beautiful drive I have ever seen(到现在为止 → 完成时)。

might 表推测 · 不太确定的可能

(可参看「might推测」深化页)
情态动词推测强弱
情态动词把握程度例句
must一定(90%)That must be my dad — he always wears that jacket.
might / may可能(50%)We might go home. / It might rain later.
could可能(30%)That could be the hotel, but I'm not sure.
can't不可能(10%)That can't be the beach — there's no water!
might 用法要点

① might + 动词原形:might be / might rain / might go——后面永远是原形,不加 to。

② 课文里的 might have done:We might have turned round(我们差点就掉头了——对过去的推测),这是 FCE 深化点,PET 认识即可。

③ 否定:might not = 可能不;和 can't(不可能)语气不同。

Examiner: Talk together about where you would like to go for your next holiday.
Student A: I really want to go to the coast. Last summer I went to the beach with my dad, and it was amazing.
Student B: I love the beach too. But it might rain if we go in spring. Where else could we go?
Student A: We could go to the mountains. We can camp, and it is much cheaper than a hotel.
Student B: That's a good idea. If we drive, it will take about four hours.
Student A: Exactly. And we can book the campsite online in advance.
Student B: OK, let's ask our parents tonight. I'm sure they will say yes.
考官:一起聊聊你们下次想去哪儿度假。/A:我特别想去海边。去年夏天我和爸爸去了,棒极了。/B:我也爱海边。但春天去可能下雨。我们还能去哪儿?/A:我们可以去山里。能露营,比住酒店便宜多了。/B:好主意。如果开车,大概四个小时。/A:没错。我们还能提前在网上订营地。/B:行,今晚问爸妈。他们肯定会同意。
得分点:① 用了 Last summer...went...讲过去经历,又用 might/could/will 讨论未来;② if 条件句(If we drive, it will take...);③ 互动(I love...too / That's a good idea / Exactly)。

自评:错 2 题以上,回第 2、3 章重背不规则动词表和过去时/完成时判断。

FCE 衔接 · 同一话题的两级进阶

论PET 旅行 → FCE 旅行,难度怎么长

语法加码:PET 用 might do 推测现在/未来;FCE 要求 might have done(对过去的推测:You might have left it at home)、过去完成时讲故事(When we arrived, the hotel had closed),以及虚拟语气。

词汇升级:PET 会说 accommodation / excursion;FCE 要会说 off the beaten track / package holiday / independent travel / cultural exchange 这类概念词。

写作升级:PET 写 100 词小故事;FCE 写一篇"文章"讨论"年轻人该不该独自旅行",或一封"正式投诉信"讲一次糟糕的酒店经历——语体从故事转向议论。

现在就做:把四步故事弧线练到不假思索。下一站是 PET Unit 5(Education & Learning,建设中),或回到 PET 总览开始 8 周备考路线。
