3逐步講解 Steps
- 讀熟食物詞舉個例子：跟讀 rice、noodles、bread、egg、apple、banana、milk、water，每讀一個詞就在腦中浮現那種食物的樣子，例如讀 bread 就想到金黃色的麵包。這種圖像記憶比死背串法有效得多；讀完再分成兩組：能數的（an apple、two eggs）與不能數的（rice、milk），為下一步學習鋪路。
- 分清可數與不可數舉個例子：可數名詞能一個一個數：an apple、a banana、two eggs；不可數名詞不能直接數：some rice、some milk、some water，永遠不加 s。判斷方法很簡單：能說 two... 的就是可數。易錯位是看見 bread、cake 便以為全部可數，其實 bread 不可數，要說 two pieces of bread。
- 說三餐舉個例子：早餐說 I have bread and a boiled egg for breakfast.，午餐說 My favourite lunch is rice with chicken.。句型是 have 加食物，再加 for 加餐名；breakfast、lunch、dinner 前面通常不加 a 或 the。易錯位是把表達吃什麼的 for breakfast 寫成 at breakfast，記住說吃什麼一定要用 for。
- 說喜歡的食物舉個例子：I like noodles. My favourite food is dim sum. 用 favourite 表達最喜歡，語氣比 like 更強。句型 My favourite food is... 後面接單數動詞 is；喜歡的若是一類食物，也可以說 I like fruit and vegetables.。回答之後補一句原因，例如 because it is soft and sweet，答案便更有內容。
- 說健康飲食舉個例子：Drink more water and not too many sweet drinks. Fruit is full of vitamins. 給建議常用祈使句：多喝水說 Drink more water，少喝甜飲說 not too many sweet drinks，注意 sweet drinks 可數所以用 many。談健康還可以說 Eat more vegetables. Don't eat too much fried food.，fried food 不可數要用 much。
- 模擬點餐舉個例子：與同學玩餐廳角色扮演：客人說 I would like a bowl of noodles, please.，店員回答 Here you are.，客人再說 Thank you.。I would like... 比 I want... 客氣得多，是點餐的標準句式；食物前加上量詞 a bowl of、a cup of 聽起來更自然。角色扮演能同時練習聽與說，不妨多玩幾次。
5例題示範 Example
問題：怎樣用 a、an、some 與量詞，清楚說明自己一日三餐吃什麼？
- 第一步：單個可數食物用 a 或 an：母音 a、e、i、o、u 開頭的詞用 an，例如 an apple；子音開頭用 a，例如 a banana。
- 第二步：不可數食物用 some 表達一些，例如 some rice、some milk，切記不可數名詞永遠不加 s。
- 第三步：想說明分量就用量詞，例如 two bowls of rice、a glass of milk，分量改變時只改前面的數字。
- 第四步：可數食物說多件時直接加 s，例如 two eggs、three apples。
- 第五步：把句式串成一日三餐，例如 I eat two bowls of rice and drink a glass of milk for dinner.，寫完逐一檢查每個名詞的可數性。
- 答案：示範答案：For breakfast, I have some bread and a boiled egg. For dinner, I eat two bowls of rice, some vegetables and steamed fish, and I drink a glass of milk.
