Its raining. rain 做动词，意为“下雨”。 e.g. 现在天津在下雨。 Its raining in Tianjin now. 【拓展】rain 做名词，意为“雨水”。 e.g. There is a lot of rain in summer in our city. 我们这里夏天雨量很大。2. Its windy. windy 多风的 cloudy 多云的 sunny 晴朗的 e.g. 今天北京有风。 Its windy in Beijing today. 构词法：名词 + y 形容词fog-foggy storm-stormy smoke-smoky ice-icy mud-muddy3. Hows the weather in Beijing? Hows the weather in Beijing? = Whats the weather like in Beijing? - Its + adj/doing.( Its rainy. Its raining.) 注：it = the weather e.g. 华北春天多风。 The weather is windy in spring in the north of China. 今天天气如何？ 今天下雨。 Hows the weather today? / Whats the weather like today?Its raining / rainy. 4. Shes cooking. cook 作动词，意为“烹调；煮” e.g. 通常妈妈给我们做晚饭。 My mother usually cooks for us. cook (v)烹调 (n) 厨师 cooker 炊具 The cook is cooking with cookers. 这个厨师用炊具正在烹调。 5.

Sounds like youre having a good time. 这是一个省略句，相当于It sounds like youre 。英语It sounds like 与It sounds 句型近似，都表示“听起来；听上去”。这种省略的用法十分口语化，在日常英语会话中经常听到。e.g. (It) Sounds like hes all right now. 听上去他现在病已经好了。 (It) Sounds like you had a good time on your trip. 听起来你旅行玩得很开心。7. Could you just tell him to call me back? tell sb. to do sth. 让某人做某事 e.g. He tells me to drive slowly. 他让我开车慢点。 其否定结构为 tell sb. not to do sth., “让某人不要做某事”。 e.g. The teacher tells them not to run in the classroom. 老师让他们不要在教室里跑。VIII.
