琳达,你什么时候过生日?

“When is ones birthday?”是询问某人生日是何时的句型。如:

when 可以用来对年、月、日等时间提问,回答时用介词in,on,at加具体时间。如:

—When do you go home?

2. My birthday is on May 2nd.

我的生日是5月2日。

—Today is my birthday.

今天是我的生日。

—Happy birthday to you!

祝你生日快乐!

(2)当别人问:When is your birthday?时,我们可以回答:My birthday is...,也可以用:Its...。当日期具体到某一天时要用介词on,on在此句型中可以省略;若只是说在哪个月,或哪一年时,介词用in。如:

My birthday is (on) October tenth.

我的生日在10月10号。

Tree Planting Day is in March.

植树节在3月。

3. When is your fathers birthday?

你爸爸什么时候过生日?

fathers是名词father的所有格形式,意思是“爸爸的……”。名词所有格是由“名词 + s”构成的,译为“……的”。其具体用法如下:

(1)名词单数加s,若名词单数以s结尾,则所有格可加s,也可直接加。

This is my uncles bedroom.

这是我叔叔的卧室。

That is Dennis backpack.

那是丹尼斯的背包。

(2)以s或es结尾的名词复数只加 。

These are students textbooks.

这些是学生的课本。

These two sweaters are the twins.

这两件毛衣是双胞胎的。

(3)如果事物或人是兩个名词共同所有,则在后一个名词上加 s。

This is Lucy and Lilys room.

这是露西和莉莉的房间。

Miss Green is Lin Tao and Lin Fans teacher.

格林小姐是林涛和林帆的老师。

(4)如果事物或人是两个名词分别所有,则在每一个名词后分别加 s。

These are Lucys and Lilys desks.

这些是露西和莉莉的书桌。

4. How old are you?

你多大了?

how old对年龄提问,回答时常用句型:Im + 数词./Im... years old.如:

—How old is your brother?

你的弟弟多大了?

—Hes only five (years old).

他只有5岁。

—How old are you?

你多大年龄了?

—Im eleven (years old).

我11岁。

注意:在讲英语的国家,可以询问孩子的年龄,但对于成年人一般不直接问及年龄,尤其是女士。问女士的年龄被认为是不礼貌的,而且对方也不予回答。

Grammar Focus

序数词
