    A.How do we get the names for the days?
    B.The origin of division of the times.
    C.How did men invent the week?
    D.The Jews names the seven days.
    E.How did the Egyptians and the Romans name the days?
    F.Reason for no names of the days.
    1._____________
    Do you know how the days of the week get their names? There was a time in the early history of man when the days had no names! The reason was quite simple:men had not invented the week.
    2. _____________
    In those days, the only division of times was the month, and there were too many days in the month for each of them to have a separate name. But when men began to build cities, they wanted to have a special day on which to trade, a market day. Sometimes these market days were fixed at every tenth day, sometimes every seventh or every fifth day. The Babylonians decided that it should be every seventh day. On this day they didn't work, but met for trade and religious festivals.
    3. _____________
    The Jews followed their example, but kept every seventh day for religious purposes. In this way the week came into existence. It was the space between market days. The Jews gave each of the seven days a name, but it was really a number after the Sabbath day(which was Saturday). For example, Wednesday was called the fourth day (four days after Saturday).
    4. _____________
    When the Egyptians adopted the seven­day week, they named the days after five planets, the sun, and the moon. The Romans used the Egyptian names of their days of the week: the day of the sun, of the moon, of the planet Mars(火星), of Mercury(水星), of Jupiter(木星), of Venus(金星), and of Saturn(土星).
    5. _____________
    We get our names for the days not from the Romans but from the Anglo­Saxons, who called most of the days after their own gods, which were roughly the same as the gods of the Romans. The day of the sun became Sunnandaeg, or Sunday. The day of the moon was called Monandaeg, or Monday. The day of the Mars became the day of Tiw, who was their god of war. This became Tiwesday, or Tuesday. Instead of Mercury's name, that of the god Woden was given to Wednesday. The Roman day of Jupiter, the thunderer, became the day of the thunder god Thor, and this became Thursday. The next day was named for Frigg, the wife of their god Odin, and so we have Friday. The day of Saturn became Saeterndaeg, a translation from the Roman, the Saturday.

  • 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

        3/4:three-quarters
        9/4:two and a quarter
        3/2:one and half
