　　自学导读
1．go to work, 上班。
由动词 go引导的短语课文中还有：go to school（上学）， go to bed（上床睡觉）。请注意 work, school以及 bed之前不带任何冠词。
2．stay at home, 呆在家里。
与 stay home在意思上相差无几。前者中的 home是名词，后者中的home是副词。
3．do the housework, 料理家务。
housework是不可数名词。请比较：do the homework（做作业）。
4．at night, 在夜里。
如果说某日夜里，则用介词 on:
on the night of June 2 在6月2日的夜里

语法  Grammar in use
一般现在时（2）
（请参见 Lessons 47～48语法部分。）

every day/week/month/year 每日／周／月／年
in the morning/afternoon/evening 在上午／下午／晚上
at noon/night 在正午／夜里
第3人称单数的谓语动词需加以变位，这可分为几种情况：
（1）直接加 -s，如：
come----comes
arrive----arrives
（2）以 -sh, -ch, -o 以及 -s结尾的动词加 -es，如：
wash----washes
go----goes
watch----watches
do----does
（3）以辅音加 -y结尾的动词，把 -y改成 -i，再加 -es；而元音加 -y结尾的动词，只加 -s即可：
hurry----hurries
carry----carries
play----plays
stay----stays
