    Today, February twenty-ninth, is leap day(闰日). This date only appears on the calendar once every four years. But why?
    Everyone knows the Earth takes three hundred sixty-five days to travel around the sun. Well, that is not exactly correct. The Earth really takes three hundred sixty-five days, five hours, forty-eight minutes and forty-six seconds to complete its orbit around the sun.
    The problem for people developing calendars was what to do with the extra five hours, forty-eight minutes and forty-six seconds.
    People needed calendars to help them know when to plant crops and when to celebrate religious holidays. The ancient Greeks and Chinese had a solution. They produced calendars that included extra months every nineteen years.
    The ancient Romans had a different solution. In the year forty-six, the Roman ruler Julius Caesar made a new calendar. The Julian calendar included an extra day every four years. But there was a problem. The Julian year was just over eleven minutes longer than the cycle of the seasons. In 1582, Pope Gregory the Thirteenth established a new calendar to keep a better recorder of the days. Pole Gregory was the religious leader of most of Europe. He decided that years that could be divided by four would add a day. However, years that ended in two zeros and that could not be evenly divided by four hundred would not be leap years. For example, the years 1700, 1800and 1900 were not leap years. But the years 1600 and 2000 were leap years
    So leap years are years with three hundred sixty –six days , instead of the usual three hundred sixty –five.This extra days is added to the calendar on February twenty –ninth , sometimes known as leap day .People born on leap day may be called “leapings ”.They usually celebrate their birthday on February twenty –eight or March first .

    • 序数词

    序数词的概念:

    表示顺序的数称为序数词。如:first, second, third, fourth。


    序数词的构成与用法

    1、序数词的构成:
    ①一般来说,是由相应的基数词加词尾th构成。
       例:four+th→fourth
               six+th→sixth
               seven+th→seventh
               ten+th→tenth
    ②下面这些基数词在变为序数词时,有特殊的变化。
    例:one→first
            two→second
            three→third
            five→fifth
            eight→eighth
            nine→ninth
            twelve→twelfth
    ③十位整数序数词的构成方法是将基数词的词y变成i,然后再加eth。
    例:twenty→twentieth
            thirty→thirtieth
            forty→fortieth
            ninety→ninetieth
    ④两位或两位以上的基数词变成序数词时,仅将个位数变成序数词。
    例:twenty-one→twenty-first
            thirty-five→thirty-fifth
            a hundred and fifty-three→a hundred and fifty-third

    2、序数词的用法:
    ①序数词在使用时,一般加上定冠词。
    例:the first book
            the second floor
            the third day
            the fourth week.
    ②序数词在多数情况下都用作定语,有的也可以作表语、主语和宾语。
    例:The may1st is Labour Day. 五月一日是劳动节。
            My room is on the second floor. 我的房间在二楼。
            The first is larger than the secon.(主语)第一个比第二个大。
            Read the book from the first.(宾语)从开头读这本书。
            You'll be the sixth to write.(表语)你将是第六个写的。
    ③序数词的前面可以加上不定冠词,用来表示“再一”,“又一”的意思。
    例:You may have a third try. 你可以第三次尝试。


    序数词知识体系:

     


    约数的表达方法

    用tens/dozens/scores/hundreds/thousands/millions of 表示“几十、几百、上千、成千上万”等。
    如:The boy bought dozens of pencils.            
            Thousands of people died in the earthquake.
    注意: (A):dozen, score, hundred, thousand, million等表示确切数量时,不用复数。
    如:five dozen (of) eggs   五打鸡蛋
            hree hundred people  三百个人

    分数词的构成和用法:

    1)分数词构成法:
    分数词(FractionalNumerals)由基数词和序数词构成,基数词代表分子,序数词代表分母。除了分子为1的情况下,序数词都要用复数形式:
    如:1/4:one-fourth
            5/9:five-ninths
            2/3:two-thirds
           17/5:three and two-fifths
           7/12:seven-twelfths
           379/8:forty-seven and three-eighths
    此外还有下面表示法:
    如:1/2:a(one) half
            1/4:a(one) quarter
            3/4:three-quarters
            9/4:two and a quarter
            3/2:one and half
            31/4:seven and three quarters
