[病號] Its time for
have lunch.
[診斷] “Its time
to ...” 和 “Its time for...” 都是表示“該做什么事情了。”但是兩者在用法上有所區(qū)別。Its time to 后面跟動詞原形,而Its time for 后面跟名詞。
[處方] Its time for lunch. 或者 Its time to have lunch. (該吃午飯了。)

[病號] ― Whats on the wall?
― Its a map of China.
[診斷]“Whats on/
in/beside/... ?”問的是“某處有什么?”在回答時應(yīng)使用句型“Theres a ...”或“There are ...”,表示“某處有某物”。
[處方] — Whats
on the wall?(墻上有什么?)
— Theres a map of China.(有一張中國地圖。)
3
[病號] ― Whats that on the desk?
― Theres a magazine.
[診斷]問句中that是關(guān)鍵詞,一旦忽略,會理解為“桌上有什么?”回答自然會錯。
[處方]― Whats that on the desk?(桌上那是什么東西?)
― Its a magazine.(是一本雜志。)
4
[病號] His mother
doesnt likes cooking.
[診斷]只是注意到了his mother后面的動詞要用第三人稱,卻忘記助動詞does后面的動詞要用原形。
[處方] His mother doesnt like cooking.(他媽媽不喜歡做飯。)
5
[病號] She likes singing
and go shopping.
[診斷] like一詞在表示“喜歡”時,后面動詞通常用動名詞形式,即 “-ing”形式。本句中,like后面有兩個并列動詞,都要用動名詞形式。
[處方] She likes singing and going
shopping.(她喜歡唱歌和購物。)

[病號] ― Whats wrong with him?
― Heve got a cold.
[診斷]“Ive got ...”的完全形式是“I have got ...”。如果主語換成he或she則要變成“He/She has got ...”,縮寫為“Hes got ... / Shes got ...”。
[處方]― Whats wrong with him?
― Hes got a cold.
