这是一篇面向英语初学者的 VOA Let's Learn English Level 1 Lesson 3 学习指南。本课围绕“打电话找朋友和询问附近地点”展开，重点练习 Is this ...?、You have the wrong number.、I am sorry.、Is there ... near here? 以及 at + 具体地址。
Anna 搬进新公寓后想做晚饭，却不知道附近有没有超市。她先拨打 Marsha 的工作电话，但第一次打错了号码；礼貌道歉后，她再次确认号码，终于联系上 Marsha，并问到了超市的地址。
本课适合重点掌握：
Is this Marsha?You have the wrong number.I am sorry. / Excuse me.Is there a supermarket near here?at 表达具体门牌地址，用 here / there 区分“这里”和“那里”。建议先完整听一遍 Conversation，先判断 Anna 为什么打电话、第一次通话发生了什么，再回到课程页逐句跟读。
可以按下面的顺序复述本课：
You have the wrong number.可以先用三句话复述：
Anna wants to cook dinner.
She calls Marsha about a supermarket.
The supermarket is at 1500 Irving Street.Is this ...?：电话中确认身份电话里不能直接看见对方，通常用 Is this + 人名？ 确认接电话的人是不是自己要找的人：
| 英语表达 | 含义 | 使用提示 |
|---|---|---|
| Is this Marsha? | 这是 Marsha 吗？ | 适合电话开头确认身份 |
| Hello, is this the bookstore? | 你好，这是书店吗？ | 也可以确认机构或地点 |
| This is Anna. | 我是 Anna。 | 电话中介绍自己 |
Is this Marsha? 比面对面时的 Are you Marsha? 更符合电话场景。回答时可以说 Yes, this is Marsha. 或 No, you have the wrong number.
You have the wrong number.：你打错号码了wrong 表示“错误的”，the wrong number 表示“错误的电话号码”。完整表达是：
You have the wrong number.
I am sorry.
Oh, excuse me.打错电话时，先听懂对方的提示，再用 I am sorry. 或 Excuse me. 礼貌回应。不要把 wrong number 直译成“号码是错的”；在这个句子中，主语 you 表示“你拨到了错误的号码”。
Is there ... near here?：这里附近有……吗？Is there + 单数名词 + near here? 用来询问附近是否有某个地点或物品：
Is there a supermarket near here?
Is there a bank near here?
Is there a bus stop near here?回答时可以说：
Yes, there is.
No, there is not.
The supermarket is at 1500 Irving Street.询问地点时，near here 是“在这里附近”，不是“在这里面”。如果要表达“在那边”，可以使用 over there。
here 和 there| 表达 | 含义 | 例句 |
|---|---|---|
| here | 这里 | I am here. |
| there | 那里 | You are there. |
| near here | 这里附近 | Is there a supermarket near here? |
| over there | 那边 | The store is over there. |
here 和 there 是地点副词，通常直接放在句子中表达位置：I am here.、The supermarket is there.
at 和 on 表达地址说具体门牌号时使用 at：
The supermarket is at 1500 Irving Street.
Marsha works at 1400 Irving Street.只说“在某条街上”时，常用 on：
There is a store on Irving Street.还要注意完整句需要 be 动词：The supermarket is at ...，不能说 The supermarket at ...。
| 词汇 | 含义 | 例句 |
|---|---|---|
| cook | 做饭 | I want to cook dinner. |
| dinner | 晚饭 | Dinner is ready. |
| excuse | 原谅；请问 | Excuse me. |
| find | 找到；寻找 | I want to find a supermarket. |
| here | 这里 | I am here. |
| live | 居住；生活 | I live with Marsha. |
| near | 在……附近；附近的 | The store is near the apartment. |
| sorry | 抱歉的 | I am sorry. |
| supermarket | 超市 | There is a supermarket near here. |
| there | 那里 | You are there. |
| want | 想要 | I want to cook dinner. |
| wrong | 错误的 | You have the wrong number. |
建议分三轮完成：
Is this ...?、I am sorry. 和 near here。跟读时先保证 is this、wrong number、near here 这些词块完整，再逐渐练习自然连读。不要只逐个单词朗读，否则电话对话会显得断开。
- A. She wants to borrow a book.
- B. She wants to find a supermarket.
- C. She wants to go to work.
- A. Anna calls the wrong number.
- B. Marsha does not answer.
- C. Anna finds the supermarket.
- A. Is this Marsha?
- B. Is Marsha this?
- C. This is Marsha?
Is this + 人名？。 - A. The supermarket is in 1500 Irving Street.
- B. The supermarket is at 1500 Irving Street.
- C. The supermarket at 1500 Irving Street.
at，并且句子需要 is。可以把本课拆成几张小卡片：
Is this Marsha?You have the wrong number.I am sorry. / Excuse me.Is there a supermarket near here?at 1500 Irving Street每张卡只保留一个判断点。第一次复习时先看情景说英语，想不起来时再翻面核对，比反复阅读整篇文章更容易发现自己真正不会的地方。
Lesson 3 的重点不是背下一整段电话，而是掌握一套可以替换的表达：先用 Is this ...? 确认身份，打错时用 I am sorry. 礼貌结束，再用 Is there ... near here? 询问地点，最后用 at + 地址 说清楚位置。
Hello. Is this the library?
No, you have the wrong number.
Oh, I am sorry. Is there a library near here?完成听力、跟读和练习后，进入知忆学堂继续使用逐句字幕、发音视频和课后复习功能。
