九年级第15单元知识点
九年级第15单元知识点本篇文章将重点介绍九年级第15单元的知识点，旨在帮助同学们更好地理解和掌握相关内容。
本单元的知识点主要包括动词时态、情态动词和被动语态三个方面。
下面将对这三个方面逐一进行详细介绍。
动词时态是指动词表示的动作或状态与时间的关系。
在英语中，动词时态主要包括一般现在时、一般过去时和一般将来时。
一般现在时用于表示习惯性或经常性的动作，例如：“I eat breakfast every day.”（我每天吃早饭。
）一般过去时用于表示过去的动作或状态，例如：“He played soccer yesterday.”（他昨天踢足球。
）一般将来时用于表示将来的动作或状态，例如：“We will go to the park tomorrow.”（我们明天将去公园。
）情态动词是一类特殊的动词，用来表示说话人的情态、意愿、推测、建议等。
常见情态动词包括can、could、may、might、shall、should、will、would等。
情态动词具有一定的时态和语气特点，例如：“He can swim very well.”（他游泳游得很好。
）“You should study ha rder.”（你应该更努力地学习。
）情态动词的用法较为灵活，需要根据语境来确定具体的表达意义。
被动语态用于强调动作的承受者而非执行者。
被动语态的构成由“be”动词加上动词的过去分词形式构成，例如：“The book was written by him.”（这本书是他写的。
）被动语态在英语中应用广泛，特别是在科学、新闻和官方文体中经常出现。
通过掌握动词时态、情态动词和被动语态的用法，同学们可以更准确、流利地表达自己的意思，并对他人的表达进行理解。
在实际应用中，同学们还需注意词序和时态的统一，避免在表达时出现错误。
希望本篇文章对同学们在九年级第15单元的学习有所帮助，通过理解和掌握动词时态、情态动词和被动语态，同学们可以提高自己的英语语言水平。

九年级英语第15知识点
九年级英语第15知识点在九年级英语中，第15个知识点是非谓语动词。
非谓语动词是指在句子中充当动词的形式，但不作谓语动词使用。
在这一知识点中，我们将学习不定式、动名词和现在分词的用法和特点。
不定式是非谓语动词的一种形式，由"to"加上动词原形构成，例如："to eat"，"to run"等。
不定式常常被用作动词的宾语、补足语或定语。
例如："I want to eat an apple."（我想吃一个苹果。
）在这个句子中，不定式"to eat"作为动词"want"的宾语；"an apple"是宾语的补足语。
动名词是非谓语动词的另一种形式，由动词的现在分词形式加上"ing"构成。
例如："singing"，"running"等。
动名词可以作主语、宾语、表语、定语或状语。
例如："Swimming is my favorite sport."（游泳是我最喜欢的运动。
）在这个句子中，动名词"swimming"作主语。
现在分词是非谓语动词的第三种形式，由动词的现在分词形式加上"ing"构成。
现在分词可以作定语、状语或表语。
例如："The girl standing there is my sister."（站在那里的女孩是我的妹妹。
）在这个句子中，现在分词"standing"作定语，修饰"girl"。
非谓语动词具有许多特点和用法。
首先，非谓语动词可以省略主语，尤其在非常明确的情况下。
例如："Having finished his homework, he went out to play."（他做完作业后出去玩。
人教版九年级-Unit15(sectionA)知识点

●表示频率的副词有always, usually, often, sometimes/ at times, seldom,hardly, never等。
●短语有：once a day/ week/ month/ year...; twice a day/ week/ month/year...; three times a day / week/ month/ year...●与every开头的短语也表示频率，例如every day/ week/ month/ year..;every five minutes, every two hours等。
