练习材料：

The Greenwood Boys are a group of pop singers. At present, they are visiting all parts of the country. They will be arriving here tomorrow. They will be coming by train and most of the young people in the town will be meeting them at the station. Tomorrow evening they will be singing at the Workers' Club. The Greenwood Boys will be staying for five days. During this time, they will give five performances. As usual, the police will have a difficult time. They will be trying to keep order. It is always the same on these occasions.

任务配置：L0+L1

知识点：

名词的所有格

我们一般只对人和某些生物用-s。名词所有格放在其所修饰的名词之前，但在上下文很清楚时名词可以省略：

I'll go in Mike's car and you can go in Andy's.

我坐迈克的车去，你可以坐安迪的。

名词所有格的构成有一条最简单的规则，即除了以-s结尾的复数名词只需加一省字号（'）外，任何人称名词都可以加-'s。具体情况如下：

（1）在单数名词及不以-s结尾的人名后加-'s:

a child's words 小孩的话

Tom's new job 汤姆的新工作

（2）以-s结尾的单数名词后加-'s:

a waitress's job 一个女招待员的工作

（3）在规则的复数名词之后加省字号（'）:

boys' school 男校

（4）如果是用and连接的两个人名，则在第二个人名上加-'s:

John and Mary's child 约翰和玛丽的孩子

也可能同时有两个所有格：

My brother's neighbour's sister is a nurse.

我兄弟的邻居的妹妹／姐姐是一名护士。

（5）以-s结尾的人名后应加-'s，如Hans's address（汉斯的地址）。不过有时我们却既可以单用省字号也可以用-'s:

Mr. Jones'/ Jones's car 琼斯先生的汽车

有些无生命的物体后面也可以用所有格，如与时间有关的：

a day's work 一天的工作

a month's salary 一个月的薪水

a week or two's time 一两周时间

表示值多少钱也可以用所有格：

two pounds' worth of bread 两英镑的面包

练习感悟：

因为晚上困得不想读因此拖欠了几次作业，才想起来博恩·崔西说的，在早上吃掉那只青蛙。唔~~用不起来的理论始终是理论，以后都在早上完成呀！只是个决定而已啦，没那么难，习惯就好咯~
