PART 3 - The lesson

1. TELLING SOMEONE TO DO SOMETHING 叫某人做某事
在第九讲和第十八讲里,我们学了用以下几个说法来请求别人做某件事情:
Would you fill in this card,please?
Would you mind signing your name,please?
Could you close the door?
在今天这一讲里,我们则要学习怎样叫别人做某件事情.
在我们的讲座里,John和Barbara经常对你说:
Listen again and try it.
Try them with us.
这样的句子叫做祈使句。用祈使句叫人
做事，非常简便。
请你数一数在第1部分的对话中有几个
祈使句。

2. TELLING SOMEONE NOT TO DO SOMETHING 叫人不要做某事
叫人不要做某事，需要用祈使句的否定
形式，例如：
Don't plug it in yet.
Don't press that button.
Don't turn it up too high.

介绍一个常用的说法,例如:
Don't forget to ...
|plug it in.
Don't forget to |switch it on.
|turn the volume up.

3. POLITE FORMULAS 客气的说法
用祈使句叫人做什么事，或不做什么事，有时听起来很不客气。这种句子往往用来提出一连串的要求，比如在体育活动中，或者在教别人做什么事的时候，要求作什么动作。在其他场合，一般要加一点客气的话，例如:
Could you…?或please…。
(Could you)Turn it up,please.
叫别人做什么事情，也可以用以下两个
说法：
I want you to ...
I'd like you to...
(I'd like you to...比 I want you to ...更客气一些,也更为常用.)
I want you to look at this.
I'd like you to clean this room.
我们经常以请求的形式向别人提出请求.例如:
Can you come here?

PRONUNCIATION CORNER

I'd 是I would的缩略式.请练习I'd like中的[aid]音.同时也请练习其他动词的简略式,例如:
I have seen it - I've seen it.
She has done it- She's done it.
He will come - He'll come.
