一、拿出时钟模型提问同学：

What's this?

----It's a clock.

What time is it? It's... 调出不同的时间点，用英文描述。

1. 时间的表达：

钟点的正读法：先读小时，再读分钟；如需区分上下午，可在时间后加a.m或p.m

　　4:30p.m. 读作four thirty p.m.

钟点的倒读法：前半小时的读法：分钟数+past+分钟数；30分钟用half；15分钟用a quarter。

8:14读作fourteen past eight

后半小时读法：分钟数+to+未来的点钟数 8:46读作fourteen to nine

5 am. = 5 o'clock in the morning 8 pm. = 8 in the evening

5: 15 five fifteen/ a quarter past five / a quarter after five

5: 40 five forty/ twenty to six
