如何用英语表示时间(二)

1个回答

  • 或What time is it?来询问时间,有时也可用Do you know the time?等句式来问时间.回答方式均用It's...如:

    -It's seven o'clock.七点.

    [注意]o'clock必须用单数形式,不可以说seven o'clocks.

    II 表达时间

    一般来说,用英语表达时间有以下几种方法:

    1)整点表达法:如果时间是"整点",应说:"……点钟+o'clock(o'clock可以省略).如:

    ①It's seven(o'clock)a.m.now.现在是上午七点.

    ②It's two o'clock p.m.午后两点.

    2)"几点几分"有两种表达法:

    (1)顺读法:按"钟点数+分钟数"的顺序,这种方法居多,也较简单.如:

    6:18 six eighteen 7:30 seven thirty

    10:50 ten fifty

    (2)逆读法:按"分钟数+past/to+钟点数"的顺序表达.

    A.分钟数不超过30(包含30)时,用"分钟数+past+钟点数"表达.如:

    6:05 five past six

    8:10 ten past eight

    10:20 twenty past ten

    B.分钟数超过30时,用"分钟数+to+钟点数"表达.其中"分钟数"为60减去原分钟数,"钟点数"为下一个钟点数,表示"差几分几点".如:

    9:50 ten to ten

    2:58 two to three

    6:54 six to seven
