Unit 7 语法课堂
1.Feb. is short for February. Feb. 是February的缩写。
【重点释疑】月份的缩写形式一般是单词的前三个字母,后面再加上一
个点。May没有缩写形式,September的缩写形式为前面四个字母再加
点。其他的月份都取前面三个字母再加点。具体月份类单词缩写如下:
January—Jan. February—Feb. March—Mar.
April—Apr. May—May June—Jun.
July—Jul.
August—Aug. September—Sept. October—Oct.
November —Nov. December—Dec.
【易错示例】His birthday is on ______ 10th.

2.The Dragon Boat Festival is in May or June. 端午节在五月
或六月。
【重点释疑】在表示某个节日在某个月份时,我们通常用be动词连接,
在月份前应用介词in。介词in一般放在年、月、季节等比较长的时间
段之前,表示在泛指的上午、下午或晚上也用介词in。而表示在具体某
一天时,则要用介词on。
【易错示例】Children’s Day is ______ June.
A. in B. on C. at
A
3.The Spring Festival is in January or February.
春节在一月或二月。
【重点释疑】本单元出现了很多节日名称,有的节日名称前用了定冠词
the,有的节日名称前则没有the。一般来讲,在由festival构成的中国传
统节日的名称前用the,如the Spring Festival, the Lantern
Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival,
the Double Ninth Festival;而在由day构成的节日名称前不用the,如
May Day, Children’s Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day,
Teachers’ Day。
