AComplete the table sentences with the words.Q1–4 of 7

Example: Affirmative · singular: There was a big crowd outside.

Tap a gap, then tap a word (some words are not used). Tap a filled gap to undo.

1. Affirmative · singular: There was ____ amazing goalkeeper in our team.

2. Affirmative · plural: ____ a lot of fans at the stadium.

3. Affirmative · plural: There were ____ noisy spectators near us.

4. Negative · singular: ____ a swimming pool at my old school.

affirmative = 肯定句

第一到第四题:先看每句前面的提示,是肯定还是否定、单数还是复数。守门员前面要一个冠词,因为这个词以元音开头,所以用 an;很多球迷是复数肯定,用 There were;复数肯定句的“一些”用 some;单数否定句开头用 There wasn’t.

例子: There was an amazing goalkeeper. 有一个很棒的守门员。

注意: an 用在元音开头的词前面。

affirmative = ayat positif

Untuk soalan satu hingga empat, lihat petunjuk di hadapan setiap ayat dahulu: positif atau negatif, tunggal atau jamak. Jika kata nama bermula dengan bunyi vokal, gunakan an dan bukan a. Ayat positif jamak memerlukan were serta some atau a lot of, manakala ayat negatif tunggal memerlukan wasn’t. Isi tempat kosong mengikut petunjuk itu.

Contoh: There was an old bus at the station. — Ada sebuah bas lama di stesen itu.

Awas: An digunakan sebelum perkataan yang bermula dengan bunyi vokal.

5. Negative · singular: There wasn’t ____ hockey match on Monday.

6. Negative · plural: ____ many people at the park.

7. Negative · plural: There weren’t ____ good players in the other team.

negative = 否定句

第五到第七题:单数否定句“没有一场曲棍球赛”,名词前面用 a;复数否定句“人不多”开头要用 There weren’t;复数否定句“一个好球员也没有”,名词前面用 any。每个词只能用一次,填完再读一遍整句。

例子: There weren’t any good players. 一个好球员也没有。

注意: 肯定句不用 any.

negative = ayat negatif

Bagi soalan lima hingga tujuh, semua ayat adalah negatif. Kata nama tunggal dalam ayat negatif memerlukan a selepas wasn’t. Kata nama jamak memerlukan weren’t, dan any digunakan untuk maksud tiada langsung. Setiap perkataan dalam kotak hanya boleh digunakan sekali, jadi baca semula seluruh ayat selepas mengisinya.

Contoh: There weren’t any trees near the school. — Tidak ada sebatang pokok pun berhampiran sekolah.

Awas: Ayat positif tidak menggunakan any.

BYou were at a football match at Likas Stadium. Write sentences with There was / wasn’t / were / weren’t.Q1–3 of 7

2.a bus stop near the stadium ✗
3.any free seats ✗

write full sentences = 写完整句子

第一到第三题:打勾的写肯定句,打叉的写否定句。“很多汽车”是复数,打勾,用复数肯定;“一个巴士站”是单数,打叉,用单数否定;“空座位”前面有 any,是复数,打叉,用复数否定。句子开头要大写,句末加句号。

例子: There wasn’t a bus stop near the stadium. 体育场附近没有巴士站。

注意: 可以写 wasn’t,也可以写 was not.

write full sentences = tulis ayat lengkap

Untuk soalan satu hingga tiga, tanda betul bermaksud tulis ayat positif, manakala tanda pangkah bermaksud tulis ayat negatif. Kemudian lihat kata nama: jika ada a, kata nama itu tunggal; jika ada lot of atau any, kata nama itu jamak. Mulakan ayat dengan huruf besar dan akhiri dengan noktah.

Contoh: There wasn’t a shop near my house. — Tidak ada kedai berhampiran rumah saya.

Awas: Kamu boleh menulis bentuk singkatan atau bentuk penuh, contohnya was not.

BYou were at a football match at Likas Stadium. Write sentences with There was / wasn’t / were / weren’t.Q4–6 of 7

✓ = yes, ✗ = no. Example: a lot of spectators at the match ✓ → There were a lot of spectators at the match.

4.a famous singer before the match ✓
5.a food stall inside the stadium ✗
6.two big TV screens ✓

singular noun = 单数名词

第四到第六题:“一位有名的歌手”是单数,打勾,用单数肯定;“一个小食摊”也是单数,打叉,用单数否定;“两个大电视屏幕”是复数,打勾,用复数肯定。决定用哪一个动词,要看后面的名词是一个还是很多个。

例子: There was a famous singer before the match. 赛前有一位有名的歌手。

singular noun = kata nama tunggal

Bagi soalan empat hingga enam, setiap gambar ada tanda betul atau pangkah. Seorang penyanyi dan sebuah gerai makanan ialah kata nama tunggal, manakala dua skrin televisyen besar ialah kata nama jamak. Kata kerja yang kamu pilih bergantung pada bilangan benda selepasnya, sama ada satu atau lebih daripada satu.

Contoh: There was a clown at the party. — Ada seorang badut di majlis itu.

BYou were at a football match at Likas Stadium. Write sentences with There was / wasn’t / were / weren’t.Q7 of 7

✓ = yes, ✗ = no. Example: a lot of spectators at the match ✓ → There were a lot of spectators at the match.

7.a lot of noisy fans ✓

a lot of + plural = 很多(复数)

第七题:“很多吵闹的球迷”,后面是复数名词,又打了勾,所以要写复数的肯定句。写完把七个句子从头再读一遍,检查单数复数、肯定否定有没有配对正确,开头有没有大写,句末有没有句号。

例子: There were a lot of noisy fans. 有很多吵闹的球迷。

a lot of + plural = banyak (jamak)

Soalan tujuh menyebut ramai peminat yang bising, dan gambarnya ada tanda betul. Tentukan bentuk ayat berdasarkan dua petunjuk ini. Selepas selesai, baca semula ketujuh-tujuh ayat dari awal. Semak sama ada tunggal dan jamak, serta positif dan negatif, sudah sepadan. Pastikan juga setiap ayat bermula dengan huruf besar dan berakhir dengan noktah.

Contoh: There were a lot of happy children. — Ada ramai kanak-kanak yang gembira.

例子: Siti wasn’t at the library. She was at the park. 诗蒂不在图书馆,她在公园。

Untuk soalan satu dan dua, cari nama orang dan hari dalam jadual. Ravi dan Jun berada di pawagam pada hari Sabtu, jadi bandingkan tempat itu dengan tempat dalam ayat. Dua orang memerlukan kata kerja jamak. Siti pula seorang sahaja, jadi kata kerjanya tunggal. Bahagian pertama menyatakan tempat yang salah, bahagian kedua tempat yang betul.

第三、四题:看星期天那一栏。哈娜星期天在足球场,不在电影院,所以先写单数否定,再写单数肯定;拉维和俊星期天在体育中心,不在公园,先写复数否定,再写复数肯定。每一句的第二个空格说出真正的地点。

例子: Hana wasn’t at the cinema. She was at the football stadium. 哈娜不在电影院,她在足球场。
