古巴比伦人创立的星期制,首先传到古希腊、古罗马等地。古罗马人用他们自己信仰的.神的名字来命名1周7天:
Sun’s-day(太阳神日);Moon’s-day(月亮神日);Mars’s-day(火星神日);Mercury’s-day(水星神日);Jupiter’s-day(木星神日);Venus’-day(金星神日);Saturn’s-day(土星神日)。
这7个名称传到英国后,盎格鲁-撒克逊人又用他们自己的信仰的神的名字改造了其中4个名称:
以Tuesday 、Wednesday、Thursday、Friday 分别取代Mars’s-day 、Mercury’s-day 、Jupiter’s-day 、Venus’-day。
这样就形成了如今英语中的1周7天的名称。

2. What a day!多吗糟糕的天气!这是一个省略的感叹句,完整的句子应该是What a day it is!英语中的感叹句常用What开头,后面紧跟一个名词或者名词性短语(包括连系动词),然后是主语和谓语,句尾用感叹号。比如What a man he is!
3. I’m coming to see you.这句话现在进行时表示近期或按计划或安排要进行的动作。
4. Dear me!天哪!这也是一个感叹句。
这一课的重点是现在和经常发生的动作。
语法点:频度副词是用来表示动作发生的次数的副词,常见的有never从不,seldom很少,sometimes有时,frequently频繁地,often经常,usually通常,always总是等。频度副词通常位于实义动词之前,动词be、助动词、情态动词等之后。如:
We often have lunch together.我们经常一起吃饭。
Mike usually goes to work by train.迈克通常做火车去上班。
当然频度副词比较灵活,有时为了强调会放到助动词之前,比如 He always was late.他总是迟到。这里就是表示强调,此时的助动词应重读。
