升入中学是一个重要的转变，学习一门新语言既令人兴奋，也可能让人有点不知所措。这个暑期衔接课程专为帮助你自信地开启 Year 7 AQA 法语学习而设计。在九月开学前提前练习一些关键主题，你将能够从容地走进第一堂课，向老师问好、做自我介绍并融入课堂。本文涵盖了核心词汇、基础语法和有趣的练习建议，让你从第一天起就爱上法语。
1. Why Prepare for Year 7 French? | 为什么需要预习 Year 7 法语？
Entering Year 7 means meeting a new timetable, different teachers and subjects you may never have studied before. French will be one of them, and while everyone starts as a beginner, a little preparation over the summer can make a huge difference. The AQA syllabus builds quickly, so knowing some basic greetings, numbers and classroom phrases will help you feel less anxious and more willing to participate.
进入七年级意味着全新的课程表、不同的老师以及你可能从未学过的科目。法语就是其中之一，虽然大家都从零开始，但暑期稍作准备就能带来巨大变化。AQA 教学大纲进展很快，因此提前掌握一些基本问候语、数字和课堂用语会让你少一些紧张，更愿意主动参与。
Learning a language is like learning a sport or a musical instrument – the more you expose yourself to the sounds and patterns early on, the faster you will pick them up. A bridging course is not about being perfect; it is about building familiarity so that when your teacher says "Bonjour, la classe!" you can smile and reply "Bonjour!" without hesitation.
学习语言就像学习体育或乐器一样——早期接触语音和语言模式的次数越多，掌握速度就越快。衔接课程不是为了追求完美，而是为了建立熟悉感，这样当老师说 "Bonjour, la classe!" 时，你能微笑并毫不犹豫地回答 "Bonjour!"。
2. Key Topics You Will Learn | 你将学习的关键主题
The Year 7 AQA French course is organised around everyday situations. You will talk about yourself, your family, your school and your hobbies. The themes are carefully chosen to give you the vocabulary you need for real communication. Below are the main topic areas you can expect to meet in your first year.
七年级 AQA 法语课程围绕日常场景展开。你将谈论自己、家庭、学校和爱好。这些主题经过精心挑选，为你提供真实交流所需的词汇。以下是你在第一年将会遇到的主要话题领域。
| Topic | 中文 |
|---|---|
| Greetings and introductions | 问候与自我介绍 |
| Numbers 1–31 and dates | 数字1–31与日期 |
| Colours and physical descriptions | 颜色与外貌描述 |
| Family members and pets | 家庭成员与宠物 |
| School subjects and classroom objects | 学校科目与教室物品 |
| Classroom instructions | 课堂用语 |
| Basic grammar: gender, articles, adjectives | 基础语法：名词性别、冠词、形容词 |
By getting a head start on these topics, you will make the transition into French lessons smooth and enjoyable. Even learning five new words a day over the summer can give you a vocabulary of over 200 words before school begins.
通过提前接触这些主题，你就能平稳愉快地适应法语课堂。即便暑假每天只学五个新词，开学前你也能积累超过200个词汇。
3. Basic Greetings and Introductions | 基础问候与自我介绍
Greetings are the very first thing you will use in any French lesson. The simplest way to say hello is "Bonjour", which means good day or hello. You can use "Salut" with friends, and "Bonsoir" in the evening. When you meet someone, you can ask "Comment tu t’appelles?" to find out their name, and reply "Je m’appelle..." followed by your name.
问候语是你在任何法语课上最先使用的内容。最简单的打招呼方式是 "Bonjour"，意思是日安或你好。和朋友一起时可以用 "Salut"，晚上则用 "Bonsoir"。与人见面时，你可以问 "Comment tu t'appelles?" 来询问对方的名字，然后回答 "Je m'appelle..." 并加上自己的名字。
It is also useful to learn how to say how you are feeling. "Ça va?" means "How are you?" or "How’s it going?" and you can answer "Ça va bien, merci" (I'm fine, thanks) or "Comme ci, comme ça" (so-so). Practise these short exchanges out loud until they feel natural.
学会表达自己的感受也很重要。"Ça va?" 意为 "你好吗？" 或 "怎么样？"，你可以回答 "Ça va bien, merci"（我很好，谢谢）或 "Comme ci, comme ça"（还行）。大声练习这些简短对话，直到它们脱口而出。
| French | English | 中文 |
|---|---|---|
| Bonjour | Hello / Good day | 你好 / 日安 |
| Salut | Hi / Bye | 嗨 / 再见 |
| Bonsoir | Good evening | 晚上好 |
| Comment tu t’appelles ? | What’s your name? | 你叫什么名字？ |
| Je m’appelle… | My name is… | 我叫…… |
| Ça va ? | How are you? | 你好吗？ |
| Ça va bien, merci | I’m fine, thanks | 我很好，谢谢 |
| Au revoir | Goodbye | 再见 |
To practise, stand in front of a mirror and imagine meeting a new classmate. Say "Bonjour, je m’appelle Tom. Et toi?" and then answer for an imaginary friend. Adding gestures and a smile will make you feel more confident when you do it for real.
练习时，可以站在镜子前，想象遇到新同学的情景。说 "Bonjour, je m'appelle Tom. Et toi?"，然后替想象中的朋友回答。加上手势和微笑，会让你在真实场景中更加自信。
4. Numbers 1–31 and Dates | 数字 1–31 与日期
Knowing numbers in French is essential for giving your age, talking about dates and even telling the time later on. Start with 1 to 10, then gradually build up to 31. The numbers 1–10 are: un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf, dix. Pay attention to pronunciation, especially the nasal sounds in "un" and "cinq".
掌握法语数字对于说明年龄、谈论日期乃至日后表达时间都至关重要。先从 1 到 10 开始，再逐步学到 31。1 到 10 分别是：un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf, dix。要注意发音，尤其是 "un" 和 "cinq" 中的鼻化元音。
Once you are comfortable with 1–20, the rest becomes easier because a pattern emerges. For example, 21 is "vingt et un", 22 is "vingt-deux", and so on. Your birthday is one of the first personal details you will share, so learn to say "Mon anniversaire est le + date".
一旦熟练掌握了 1–20，后面的数字就变得容易了，因为它们有一定规律。例如，21 是 "vingt et un"，22 是 "vingt-deux"，以此类推。生日是你最先分享的个人信息之一，因此要学会说 "Mon anniversaire est le + 日期"。
| Number | French | 中文 |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | un | 一 |
| 2 | deux | 二 |
| 3 | trois | 三 |
| 10 | dix | 十 |
| 15 | quinze | 十五 |
| 20 | vingt | 二十 |
| 31 | trente et un | 三十一 |
To say the date, use "le" + number + month. Months are not capitalised in French. For instance, "le 5 septembre" means the 5th of September. Try creating a mini calendar in French and practise reading aloud today’s date every morning.
表达日期时，用 "le" + 数字 + 月份。月份在法语中不大写。例如，"le 5 septembre" 表示 9 月 5 日。试着制作一份迷你的法语日历，每天早晨大声读出当天的日期。
5. Colours and Descriptions | 颜色与描述
Colours bring descriptions to life, whether you are talking about a pet, a school uniform or your favourite football shirt. The main colours you need are: rouge (red), bleu (blue), vert (green), jaune (yellow), noir (black), blanc (white), rose (pink) and gris (grey). In French, most colours go after the noun they describe, which is the opposite of English.
颜色能让描述变得生动，无论是谈论宠物、校服还是你最喜欢的足球衫。你需要掌握的主要颜色有：rouge（红色）、bleu（蓝色）、vert（绿色）、jaune（黄色）、noir（黑色）、blanc（白色）、rose（粉色）和gris（灰色）。法语中大多数颜色放在所修饰名词的后面，这与英语正好相反。
Adjectives like colours also change their form depending on whether the noun is masculine or feminine. This is an important early grammar point. For example, "un stylo bleu" (a blue pen) is masculine, but "une trousse bleue" (a blue pencil case) adds an extra 'e' for feminine. Don't worry if you make mistakes at first – it will become automatic with practice.
像颜色这样的形容词还会根据名词的阴阳性改变形式，这是一个重要的早期语法知识点。例如，"un stylo bleu"（一支蓝色钢笔）是阳性，而 "une trousse bleue"（一个蓝色笔袋）需要在词尾加 'e' 变成阴性形式。起初犯错误也不用担心，多加练习就会自然而然掌握。
Try describing objects around your room. Point at a red book and say "un livre rouge". Soon you will be able to describe someone's eyes or hair: "Elle a les yeux verts et les cheveux bruns" (She has green eyes and brown hair). This simple sentence builds confidence and prepares you for writing short paragraphs in Year 7.
试着描述你房间里的物品。指着一本红色的书说 "un livre rouge"。很快你就能描述某人的眼睛或头发了："Elle a les yeux verts et les cheveux bruns"（她有绿色的眼睛和棕色的头发）。这些简单的句子能树立信心，为你进入七年级后写作短段落做好准备。
6. Family and Pets | 家庭与宠物
Talking about your family is a hugely popular topic in beginner French. Key words include: mère (mother), père (father), frère (brother), soeur (sister), grand-mère (grandmother) and grand-père (grandfather). To say "my", use "mon" for masculine nouns and "ma" for feminine nouns, such as "mon père" and "ma mère".
谈论家庭是初级法语中极受欢迎的话题。关键单词包括：mère（母亲）、père（父亲）、frère（兄弟）、soeur（姐妹）、grand-mère（祖母/外祖母）和 grand-père（祖父/外祖父）。表示"我的"时，阳性名词前用 "mon"，阴性名词前用 "ma"，例如 "mon père" 和 "ma mère"。
Pets are just as important as family members for many students. You can say "J'ai un chien" (I have a dog), "J'ai un chat" (I have a cat) or "Je n'ai pas d'animal" (I don’t have a pet). Notice how "un" and "une" change after the negative: "Je n'ai pas de" + noun. This is a useful structure that appears right from the start of the AQA course.
对很多学生而言，宠物和家人一样重要。你可以说 "J'ai un chien"（我有一只狗）、"J'ai un chat"（我有一只猫）或 "Je n'ai pas d'animal"（我没有宠物）。注意否定句中 "un/une" 的变化："Je n'ai pas de" + 名词。这是 AQA 课程从一开始就会涉及的一个实用句型。
| French | English | 中文 |
|---|---|---|
| mon père | my father | 我的父亲 |
| ma mère | my mother | 我的母亲 |
| mon frère | my brother | 我的兄弟 |
| ma soeur | my sister | 我的姐妹 |
| J'ai un chien | I have a dog | 我有一只狗 |
| Je n'ai pas de chat | I don’t have a cat | 我没有猫 |
Practise by drawing a simple family tree, labelling each person in French. Then add a sentence under each one, for example "Voici ma mère – elle s'appelle Sophie". This turns vocabulary into real communication and is a fun, creative way to learn.
你可以画一张简单的家谱树，用法语标注每位家庭成员。然后在每个人下方加一句话，例如 "Voici ma mère – elle s'appelle Sophie"。这样就把词汇变成了真实的交流，也是一种有趣、富有创意的学习方式。
7. School Life Vocabulary | 学校生活词汇
School is where you will use French the most in Year 7, so learning the names of subjects and common objects ahead of time is very helpful. The main subjects are: le français (French), l'anglais (English), les maths (maths), les sciences (science), l'histoire (history), la géographie (geography) and l'EPS (PE). Note that subjects all have "le", "la" or "l'" in front of them when talking about them in general.
学校是你在七年级最常用到法语的地方，因此提前学习科目名称和常见物品非常有帮助。主要科目有：le français（法语）、l'anglais（英语）、les maths（数学）、les sciences（科学）、l'histoire（历史）、la géographie（地理）和 l'EPS（体育）。请注意，泛泛地谈论科目时，它们前面都要带上 "le"、"la" 或 "l'"。
You will also need words for items in your pencil case and classroom: un stylo (pen), un crayon (pencil), une gomme (rubber), une règle (ruler), un cahier (exercise book) and un sac (bag). Practise the phrase "Dans mon sac, j'ai..." (In my bag, I have...) and list everything you have packed. This links vocabulary to real, everyday actions.
你还需要掌握铅笔盒和教室物品的词汇：un stylo（钢笔）、un crayon（铅笔）、une gomme（橡皮）、une règle（直尺）、un cahier（练习本）和 un sac（书包）。练习短语 "Dans mon sac, j'ai..."（在我的书包里，我有……），然后列出所有你装进去的东西。这样能把词汇与真实的日常行为联系起来。
Try to describe your timetable using the words you know. "Le lundi, j'ai maths et français" (On Monday I have maths and French) is a simple but real sentence that you will use again and again. Being able to say what you like or dislike is also a great confidence booster: "J'aime les sciences, mais je n'aime pas l'histoire."
试着用你学过的单词来描述你的课程表。"Le lundi, j'ai maths et français"（星期一我有数学和法语课）是一个简单却真实的句子，你会反复使用。能够表达喜欢或不喜欢也会大大增强信心："J'aime les sciences, mais je n'aime pas l'histoire."（我喜欢科学，但不喜欢历史。）
8. Classroom Instructions | 课堂用语
In a French lesson, your teacher will often give instructions in French. Understanding these key phrases from the start means you can follow the lesson without needing translation. Common instructions include: "Écoutez" (Listen), "Regardez" (Look), "Répétez" (Repeat), "Levez la main" (Put your hand up) and "Asseyez-vous" (Sit down).
在法语课上，老师经常会用法语发出指令。从一开始就理解这些关键用语，意味着你能不借助翻译跟上课堂进度。常见的指令有："Écoutez"（听）、"Regardez"（看）、"Répétez"（重复）、"Levez la main"（举手）和 "Asseyez-vous"（坐下）。
You may also hear "Ouvrez vos cahiers" (Open your exercise books) or "Fermez vos livres" (Close your books). When you need help, you can raise your hand and say "Je ne comprends pas" (I don’t understand) or "Pouvez-vous répéter, s'il vous plaît ?" (Can you repeat, please?). These polite requests show you are trying and will win the teacher’s support.
你可能还会听到 "Ouvrez vos cahiers"（打开练习本）或 "Fermez vos livres"（合上书）。需要帮助时，可以举手说 "Je ne comprends pas"（我不明白）或 "Pouvez-vous répéter, s'il vous plaît ?"（请您重复一遍好吗？）。这些礼貌的请求表明你在努力尝试，也会赢得老师的支持。
Why not turn your bedroom into a mini classroom for a few minutes each day? Pretend you are the teacher and give yourself instructions in French while pointing to objects. This active, physical approach helps your brain remember words faster.
为什么不每天花几分钟把卧室变成小型教室呢？假装自己是老师，一边指着物品一边用法语给自己发指令。这种身临其境的积极学习方式能帮助你的大脑更快记住单词。
9. Useful Grammar Concepts | 实用语法概念
You do not need to be a grammar expert before starting Year 7, but a gentle introduction to a few concepts will make everything easier. First, all French nouns have a gender – they are either masculine or feminine. The word for "a" or "an" is "un" for masculine nouns (un garçon) and "une" for feminine nouns (une fille).
你不需要在进入七年级之前就成为语法专家，但温和地引入几个概念会让一切变得更简单。首先，所有法语名词都有性别——它们要么是阳性要么是阴性。表示"一个"的词在阳性名词前用 "un"（un garçon – 一个男孩），阴性名词前用 "une"（une fille – 一个女孩）。
Second, spelling matters. Many words have silent endings, so "parlent" and "parle" can sound the same but mean different things. Don't try to learn all the rules at once; simply notice that written French and spoken French can be quite different and be patient with yourself.
其次，拼写很重要。许多单词的词尾不发音，所以 "parlent" 和 "parle" 听起来一样，但意思不同。不要试图一次性记住所有规则；只需注意书面法语和口头法语可能差异很大，并对自己保持耐心。
Focus on the key verbs "être" (to be) and "avoir" (to have). Start with "je suis" (I am), "tu es
