他们是杰克的（外）祖父母。
2. He’s my brother, Paul.
brother意为“兄”或“弟”。复数形式是“brothers” ，应注意在英语中有一些称呼词不如汉语的称呼词意思明确，应视具体情况而定。类似的单词还有sister “姐；妹”， aunt “姑（姨、伯、婶、舅）母”，uncle “舅（叔、伯、姑）父；姨夫”，cousin “堂兄（弟、姊、妹）；表兄（弟、姊、妹）”等。

琳达是我姨的女儿。她是我的表姐（妹）。
3. Well, have a good day! 祝你过得愉快！
Have a good day!(=Have a nice day!)是一句祝福的话语，意为“祝你过得愉快”。经常用于谈话或打电话结束时向对方表示祝福，对方常会回答“You, too.”，意为“也祝你过得愉快”。

祝你过个愉快的周末！
—Thanks. You, too.
谢谢！也祝你周末愉快！

如：This is my aunt Mary.  这是我的姑姑玛丽。
①This is… 句型还可以用来说明某个事物。如：
This is a nice clock. 这是一个漂亮的钟表。
② Is this/that…? 意为“这/那是……吗？”是一般疑问句，应该用Yes, he/ she is. 或No, he/ she isn’t. 来回答。如：

e.g. Here is a red schoolbag.
这里有一个红色的书包。
Here are nine nice rulers.
这里有九把漂亮的尺子。
2) two photos of my family意为“二张家庭照片”，of意为“……的”，用来表示无生命事物的所有关系，“名词 + of + 名词”表示前者属于后者。
例如：
the gate of the park 公园的大门 map of China 中国地图
【拓展】
表示人或其他有生命的物体的所属关系时，单数名词在词尾直加“’s”； 复数名词在词尾直接加“’”。

Mary’s pen 玛丽的钢笔
Paul’s grandpa 保尔的祖父
my parents’ room 我父母的房间

Let’s look at the next.
让我们来看下一个。（名词）

例如：
