Language Points 語言要點(diǎn)

1. I'm going home today. 我今天要回家。
這句話是現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)的形式，表示的是將來的時(shí)態(tài)。go home 回家，home 是副詞，“回家、到家”之意，因此 go 后面不帶 to。
2. Tell me where you live. 告訴我你住在哪兒。
這是一句帶有賓語從句的祈使句。Where you live，是一個(gè)從句。做 tell 的賓語，賓語從句中要用陳述語序，例如：
Tell me what happened. 告訴我發(fā)生了什么事。
Tell me where the police station is. 告訴我警察局在哪。
