單元一:基礎句型篇

Day 04|be 動詞:am / is / are

這一章會學英文裡超常見的 be 動詞。很多初學者不是漏掉它,就是配錯主詞,這一章就是要把它弄清楚。

本章學習目標

主詞配對

記住 I 用 am,he/she/it 用 is,you/we/they 用 are。

基本句型

會寫 be 動詞的肯定句、否定句和問句。

避免混用

知道 be 動詞和一般動詞不能亂湊在一起。

1

白話解釋

be 動詞常常用來表示「是」、「在」、「怎麼樣」。最常看到的是 am / is / are

主詞配對

I am

He / She / It is

You / We / They are

例如:I am happy. / She is a student. / They are in the classroom.

2

常見錯誤

錯誤 1:I 配 is

I is tired.

I am tired.

I 只能配 am。

錯誤 2:they 配 is

They is my friends.

They are my friends.

They 是複數,要用 are。

錯誤 3:be 動詞和一般動詞一起亂用

She is likes music.

She likes music.

如果用一般動詞 likes,就不要再加 is。
