第四十七课 英文字后头加上字母S
一.本课要点及示例
在这一课里, 我们要复习五种在英文字后头加上字母 s 的说法. 头两种是把两 个字简化为一个字, 比方把 he is 说成 he's, 或是把 he has 说成 he's; 第三种 是用来表示复数名词,比方 teachers, students, 第四种是第三人称单数动词, 比 方 "买" buys, "吃" eats 等等; 最后一种是用来表示所有格, 比方 "美国人的" American's, "政府的" government's 等等. 同时我们也要学习跟美国赋税制度 有关系的词汇.
现在我们来听今天这一课的对话, 内容是说亨利跟凯特谈起了缴所得税的事 情. 请你注意两位英文老师的发音和语调.
F: Henry, our income tax is due soon. Did you call our accountant?
M: He's figuring out our taxes right now. I gave him all the records on our income and expenses last week.
F: The government has deducted taxes from our paychecks all year. I hope we get some of that money back or at least that we won't have to pay more.
M: Remember the money your aunt left us when she died, and the money you made when you taught night school?
F: Yes.
M: Well, that's all taxable income.That money has put us in a higher tax bracket.
F: What does that mean?
M: It means we have to pay more taxes.
F: Well, it looks like we'll have to make more money this year just to pay last year's taxes.
现在我们把整段对话再听一遍

二.SHE'S和HE'S
首先我们根据对话内容一方面练习把she is 简化为 she's, 把 he is简化为 he's, 一方面也复习对话里的新词汇. 练习的作法是老师念一个句子, 比方: Kate is talking to Henry. 学生就把句子改为: She's talking to Henry. 请你跟学生一起作 练习. 现在我们开始.
