ProceduresWarming up by learning cardinal numbersHello, class. What are these? Yes, they are socks. How much are they? They are two dollars each. How many socks are there? Lets see how many sock we have here. One, two, three基数词cardinal number第一类one 一, two 二, three 三, four 四, five 五, six 六, seven 七, eight 八, nine 九, ten 十, eleven 十一, twelve 十二这一类共计十二个单词，在结构上与其他的基数词相比较是特殊的，就象不规则的动词一样，要求逐个的硬背下来，这对学好其他的基数词和序数词都是及其重要的。 第二类thirteen 十三, fourteen 十四, fifteen 十五, sixteen 十六, seventeen 十七, eighteen 十八, nineteen 十九这一类基数词共有七个。它们在结构上有两个特点：一是在发音方面都有两个重音；二是在拼法上都有后缀teen。除了thirteen和fifteen之外，都是纯粹地在另一个基数词的后面加上后缀teen。但要注意eighteen的拼法，eight本身有t字母，因此只加een。 第三类twenty 二十, thirty 三十, forty 四十, fifty 五十, sixty 六十, seventy 七十, eighty 八十, ninety 九十这类基数词共有八个。都是十位的整数，均以后缀ty结尾。其中sixty、seventy、eighty、ninety基本上是在相应的基数词后面加上后缀ty。但要注意eighty的拼法，eight本身有t字母，因此只加y。 第四类这一类和很简单，可以看成是一种合成词。其结构方式是：用十位整数加上个位整数，其间用连字符号“”连接，表示“几十几”。这类基数词的变化都是规则的。如：twenty-one 二十一, forty-six 四十六, seventy-eight 七十八, ninety-five 九十五 2a PAIRWORK Check()the activities you have at your school.Soccer game school trip School Day book saleEnglish Day art festival Sports Day party 2b Reading and fillingRead the school notice and list the activities and the date.
