I have some difficulties with pronunciation.
difficulty即可作不可數(shù)名詞,又可作可數(shù)名詞,意為“困難”,用于下列句式:
a. have + difficulty + (in) doing sth. 其中介詞in可省略。它表示“在做某事時(shí)有困難”、“在……方面費(fèi)勁”。difficulty前可用some, great, much, little, no等詞飾飾。例如:
You' ll have no difficulty ( in ) finding his house, for he is well known in this area.
b. have + difficulty/difficulties + with sth. 名詞前用介詞with,不用in, 且with不可省略。例如:
I'm having some difficulty with my daughter's maths homework.
c. There is no (some, much, any) difficulty (in) doing sth.
d. do sth. with/without any difficulty
e .find difficulty (in) doing sth.

But Americans still talk about “fall” just as people do in some parts of western English. 但是美國人還是說 “fall” , 就像英格蘭西部有些地區(qū)的人說 “fall”一樣。
1)stay 在句中相當(dāng)于連系動(dòng)詞,意為“保持某種狀態(tài)”;相當(dāng)于keep的意思,通常接形容詞作表語,無被動(dòng)語態(tài)。它還可以用作不及物動(dòng)詞,表示“停留”等,例如:
The shop stayed open till 6 o’clock. 這家商店一直營業(yè)到六點(diǎn)。
句式一:stay + 形,維持(……的狀態(tài))。如:
The windows stayed open all the night.
句式二:stay(+副),停留(在某處)。如:
You should stay in bed.
句式三:stay (+ 副),留宿,客居,暫住。如:
How long did you stay in New York?
2)the same as / the same …as 是“和……一樣”的意思。在same之前總要加定冠詞the。 as 是關(guān)系代詞,引導(dǎo)限制性定語從句,as 在定語從句中作主語、賓語或表語。as 從句可用省略形式。如:
This is the same material as is used in building the bridge. 這和建那座橋所用的材料一樣。(as 作主語)
3)just as 意為“正如,恰似”,as 是連詞,引導(dǎo)一個(gè)方式狀語從句,有時(shí)也可引導(dǎo)表語從句。如:

8.Would you please say that again more slowly? = Will you please say that again more slowly? = Please say that again more slowly.
“Would/will you please. . . ?”是婉轉(zhuǎn)提出要求時(shí)的禮貌用語,用would比用will更加禮貌,多用于對(duì)陌生人或長輩說話的場(chǎng)合。注意該句型后接動(dòng)詞原形,肯定回答:Yes, I will. / Sure, / All right. Certainly. / Yes, please. 否定回答:No, I won’t. / I’m sorry, but I can’t. / No, thank you.
9.In China about seven people in ten speak putonghua.
in 作介詞,表示比例、比率,例如:
One in ten students could solve the problem.
10.I know only a little English. 我只懂一點(diǎn)英語.
little 作"少"解,有否定的意味,即"少得幾乎沒有"(almost no)的意思,a little雖然也作"少"解,但有肯定的意味,"即雖少但還有一點(diǎn)"的意思.而only a little 卻是否定的.和little 同義,在非正式文體中一般用only a little來代替little.
試比較下列對(duì)話:
A:I'm thirsty. Can you give me some water to drink? 我渴了,給我一點(diǎn)水喝好嗎?
B:Sure. There is a little water in the bottle. Take it.好的,瓶里還有一點(diǎn)水,拿去吧。
A:I'm thirsty. Can you give me some water to drink?我渴了,給我一點(diǎn)水喝好嗎?
B:I'm sorry, but there is little / only a little water in the bottle.
對(duì)不起,瓶里沒有什么水了。
1.no longer 與no more
這是一對(duì)近義詞,都作“不再”、“再也不”(for no further period of time )解,一般可通用。
。保﹏o more一般位于句末或句首,而no longer則可用于實(shí)義動(dòng)詞之前,助動(dòng)詞或連系動(dòng)詞之后,或者位于句尾。例如:
(1)He still smoked, but he drank no more. 他還在吸煙,但不再喝酒了。
(2)They are no longer staying with us. 他們不再跟我們住在一起。
2) no more = not. . . any more, no longer = not. . . any longer. no more/ longer 是正式用法,not. . . any more/longer 比較自然。如:
(1)I do not see him any more/any longer.我不能再看到他了。
(2)I did not feel sick any more. 我不再感到惡心了。
3)no more (not. ..any more) 強(qiáng)調(diào)數(shù)量和程度,表示動(dòng)作不再重復(fù),一般指把現(xiàn)在的情況將來對(duì)比,即“現(xiàn)在如何如何,將來不再這樣(now, but not in the future)”. no longer(not. . .any longer) 強(qiáng)調(diào)時(shí)間,表示動(dòng)作不再延緩,一般是現(xiàn)在的情況同過去對(duì)比,即“過去如何如何,現(xiàn)在不再這樣(once, but not now) !
例如:
(1)She is not a child any longer.
= She is no longer a child. 她再也不是個(gè)孩子了。
(2)I won't do such stupid things any more.
= I'll do such stupid things no more. 我(今后)再也不干這種蠢事了。
2. 辨析 however / but / while
從詞義上看,三詞相近,均表示上下文之間語氣的轉(zhuǎn)折,其中but語氣強(qiáng)烈,譯作“但是”;從詞性上看,however作“然而、可是”解時(shí)是副詞,而but與while是連詞,用于連接并列分句;從句子位置看,but與while一般位于兩個(gè)并列分句的中間,however位置靈活,可位于可首,句中或句尾,而且必須用“,”與句子分開。例如:
We love peace, but we are not afraid of war.
This plan is all right; however, it can be made better.
I’m interested in sports while my brother is fond of music.
He is young, but he knows a lot. 他尚年幼,但懂得卻多。
Later, however, he decided to go. 可后來他決定去了。
3.A great many words and expressions have come into the language from American English…
英語中表“許多”的詞組有很多,一般可按其用法分為以下三類:
修飾可名詞:many; a great (good, large ) number of; quite a few; numbers of; many a ; a great (good) many; scores of 等。many a ,其意近似于many , 但many a 后邊接可數(shù)名詞單數(shù),如:
Many a student has such a question.
修飾不可數(shù)名詞:much; a great (good ) deal of; a large amount of; large amounts of等。
既可修飾可數(shù)名詞,也可修飾不可數(shù)名詞:a lot of (lots of ); plenty of; a large quantity of; large quantities of 等。
plenty of, a lot of / lots of常用在肯定句中,否定句中多用many或much 。如:
Today I haven’t much work to do. 今天我沒有許多事做。
4. Now ask your partner for the answers.
句式“ask + 名(人)+ for +名”意為“向(某人)請(qǐng)求……”;“向(某人)要求……”,例如:
He asked his parents for a motorcycle.
比較下列句式:
句式一:ask +for+名,向……要,例如:
After dinner I asked for coffee.
句式二:ask +名(+ for/to+ 名), 請(qǐng)……,例如:
I have been asked for (to) dinner tonight.
句式三:ask + 名(人)+副詞+for / to + 名,請(qǐng)……,例如:
He asked me in for a cup of coffee.
I asked her out to lunch.
句式四:ask for + 人,要求(人)來(接電話),例如:
A Mr Simpson from Sydney is asking for the manager.
5.a(chǎn)s用法小結(jié)
1)as用作介詞,意為“作為”,“如同”。as引導(dǎo)的介詞短語大多作狀語,有時(shí)也可用作定語、定語補(bǔ)足語等。例如:
(1)It was Paul’s first important lesson as a student of Chemistry and he never forgot it.
(2)Don't treat me as a child. 別把我當(dāng)小孩看待。
(3)He is well-known as a writer. 作為一名作家他很出名。
2)as作連詞,有以下幾種不同含義:
a. 引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句,意為“當(dāng)……時(shí)候”,“隨著……”“一邊……一邊……”。如:
He saw his daughter as he was getting off the bus.
他下車看見了他的女兒。(兩個(gè)短暫動(dòng)作幾乎同時(shí)發(fā)生)
b. 引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句,意為“因?yàn)椤,“既然”,as = since(語氣比because弱)。as原因狀語從句多位于主句前。如:
(1)As (Since) you are not feeling well, you may stay home.
既然你不太舒服,你就留在家里吧。
(2)As he was ill, I went without him. 因?yàn)樗胁,我?dú)自去了。
c. 引導(dǎo)比較狀語從句,“像……一樣。”常用于as(副詞)…as和not as …as結(jié)構(gòu)中。如:
(3)The book is not so easy as you imagine. 這本書不像你想象的那么容易。
d. 引導(dǎo)方式狀語從句,意為“按照”、“如同”。
She loves singing just as her mother did.她正像她母親一樣喜歡唱歌。
3)as用作關(guān)系代詞,引導(dǎo)定語從句,意為“像……的人/物”,“如……那樣。”主要用于such …as, the same …as 結(jié)構(gòu)中,在從句中作主語、賓語、表語。例如:
Such books as you bought yesterday are helpful to children.像你昨天買的那些書對(duì)孩子們有益。
直接引語和間接引語的區(qū)別
1.下列情況中,直接引語變間接引語時(shí),時(shí)態(tài)不變:
1)直接引語中的過去完(進(jìn)行)時(shí)在間接引語中時(shí)態(tài)不變
例如:Tom said, “My brother had been a worker for two years before he came here.”
Tom said that his brother had been a worker for two years before he came here.
2) 間接引語中動(dòng)詞所表示的動(dòng)作或狀態(tài)說話時(shí)仍繼續(xù)進(jìn)行或存在進(jìn),其時(shí)態(tài)不變。
例如:”I am eight.” the boy said. The boy said that he is eight.
3) 直接引語中,如果表示過去的時(shí)間狀語用來表示事態(tài)發(fā)生或存在的具體時(shí)間,變間接引語時(shí),其謂語動(dòng)詞仍用一般過去時(shí)。
4)轉(zhuǎn)述習(xí)慣性動(dòng)作、客觀事實(shí)或科學(xué)真理時(shí),其時(shí)態(tài)不變。
5)引述動(dòng)詞為現(xiàn)在時(shí),間接引語中的動(dòng)詞可保持原來時(shí)態(tài)。
例如:He says, “I have accepted her invitation.” He says that he has accepted her invitation.
6).如果直接引語用虛擬語氣,變間接引語時(shí),仍用原來的動(dòng)詞形式。
例如:’I insist that you give up smoking,’ said the doctor.
The doctor insisted that he give up smoking.
7).時(shí)間狀語從句中的一般過去時(shí)或過去進(jìn)行時(shí),在間接引語中保持不變。
8).如果直接引語是以would like 作謂語的特殊疑問句,間接引語中would like 不變;如果直接引語是一般疑問句,like 之后接動(dòng)名詞或名詞作賓語,間接引語中would like也不變。
2.直接引語是祈使句變間接引語,通常將say 改為ask 或tell, order等詞,構(gòu)成ask (tell, order) sb. to do sth.結(jié)構(gòu)。原祈使句如果是否定的,要在不定式結(jié)構(gòu)前加not,原祈使句中如果帶有please一詞,間接引語也不再使用。
例如:‘Please open the second window,’ he said. He asked me to open the second window.
2.直接引語是感嘆句,變間接引語時(shí),謂語動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用一個(gè)能表達(dá)原意的詞語。
例如:She said, “What a lovely day.” She remarked with joy that it was such a lovely day.

這是一對(duì)近義詞,都作“不再”、“再也不”(for no further period of time )解,一般可通用。
。保﹏o more一般位于句末或句首,而no longer則可用于實(shí)義動(dòng)詞之前,助動(dòng)詞或連系動(dòng)詞之后,或者位于句尾。例如:
(1)He still smoked, but he drank no more. 他還在吸煙,但不再喝酒了。
(2)They are no longer staying with us. 他們不再跟我們住在一起。
2) no more = not. . . any more, no longer = not. . . any longer. no more/ longer 是正式用法,not. . . any more/longer 比較自然。如:
(1)I do not see him any more/any longer.我不能再看到他了。
(2)I did not feel sick any more. 我不再感到惡心了。
3)no more (not. ..any more) 強(qiáng)調(diào)數(shù)量和程度,表示動(dòng)作不再重復(fù),一般指把現(xiàn)在的情況將來對(duì)比,即“現(xiàn)在如何如何,將來不再這樣(now, but not in the future)”. no longer(not. . .any longer) 強(qiáng)調(diào)時(shí)間,表示動(dòng)作不再延緩,一般是現(xiàn)在的情況同過去對(duì)比,即“過去如何如何,現(xiàn)在不再這樣(once, but not now) !
例如:
(1)She is not a child any longer.
= She is no longer a child. 她再也不是個(gè)孩子了。
(2)I won't do such stupid things any more.
= I'll do such stupid things no more. 我(今后)再也不干這種蠢事了。
2. 辨析 however / but / while
從詞義上看,三詞相近,均表示上下文之間語氣的轉(zhuǎn)折,其中but語氣強(qiáng)烈,譯作“但是”;從詞性上看,however作“然而、可是”解時(shí)是副詞,而but與while是連詞,用于連接并列分句;從句子位置看,but與while一般位于兩個(gè)并列分句的中間,however位置靈活,可位于可首,句中或句尾,而且必須用“,”與句子分開。例如:
We love peace, but we are not afraid of war.
This plan is all right; however, it can be made better.
I’m interested in sports while my brother is fond of music.
He is young, but he knows a lot. 他尚年幼,但懂得卻多。
Later, however, he decided to go. 可后來他決定去了。
3.A great many words and expressions have come into the language from American English…
英語中表“許多”的詞組有很多,一般可按其用法分為以下三類:
修飾可名詞:many; a great (good, large ) number of; quite a few; numbers of; many a ; a great (good) many; scores of 等。many a ,其意近似于many , 但many a 后邊接可數(shù)名詞單數(shù),如:
Many a student has such a question.
修飾不可數(shù)名詞:much; a great (good ) deal of; a large amount of; large amounts of等。
既可修飾可數(shù)名詞,也可修飾不可數(shù)名詞:a lot of (lots of ); plenty of; a large quantity of; large quantities of 等。
plenty of, a lot of / lots of常用在肯定句中,否定句中多用many或much 。如:
Today I haven’t much work to do. 今天我沒有許多事做。
4. Now ask your partner for the answers.
句式“ask + 名(人)+ for +名”意為“向(某人)請(qǐng)求……”;“向(某人)要求……”,例如:
He asked his parents for a motorcycle.
比較下列句式:
句式一:ask +for+名,向……要,例如:
After dinner I asked for coffee.
句式二:ask +名(+ for/to+ 名), 請(qǐng)……,例如:
I have been asked for (to) dinner tonight.
句式三:ask + 名(人)+副詞+for / to + 名,請(qǐng)……,例如:
He asked me in for a cup of coffee.
I asked her out to lunch.
句式四:ask for + 人,要求(人)來(接電話),例如:
A Mr Simpson from Sydney is asking for the manager.
5.a(chǎn)s用法小結(jié)
1)as用作介詞,意為“作為”,“如同”。as引導(dǎo)的介詞短語大多作狀語,有時(shí)也可用作定語、定語補(bǔ)足語等。例如:
(1)It was Paul’s first important lesson as a student of Chemistry and he never forgot it.
(2)Don't treat me as a child. 別把我當(dāng)小孩看待。
(3)He is well-known as a writer. 作為一名作家他很出名。
2)as作連詞,有以下幾種不同含義:
a. 引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句,意為“當(dāng)……時(shí)候”,“隨著……”“一邊……一邊……”。如:
He saw his daughter as he was getting off the bus.
他下車看見了他的女兒。(兩個(gè)短暫動(dòng)作幾乎同時(shí)發(fā)生)
b. 引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句,意為“因?yàn)椤保凹热弧,as = since(語氣比because弱)。as原因狀語從句多位于主句前。如:
(1)As (Since) you are not feeling well, you may stay home.
既然你不太舒服,你就留在家里吧。
(2)As he was ill, I went without him. 因?yàn)樗胁,我?dú)自去了。
c. 引導(dǎo)比較狀語從句,“像……一樣!背S糜赼s(副詞)…as和not as …as結(jié)構(gòu)中。如:
(3)The book is not so easy as you imagine. 這本書不像你想象的那么容易。
d. 引導(dǎo)方式狀語從句,意為“按照”、“如同”。
She loves singing just as her mother did.她正像她母親一樣喜歡唱歌。
3)as用作關(guān)系代詞,引導(dǎo)定語從句,意為“像……的人/物”,“如……那樣。”主要用于such …as, the same …as 結(jié)構(gòu)中,在從句中作主語、賓語、表語。例如:
Such books as you bought yesterday are helpful to children.像你昨天買的那些書對(duì)孩子們有益。
直接引語和間接引語的區(qū)別
1.下列情況中,直接引語變間接引語時(shí),時(shí)態(tài)不變:
1)直接引語中的過去完(進(jìn)行)時(shí)在間接引語中時(shí)態(tài)不變
例如:Tom said, “My brother had been a worker for two years before he came here.”
Tom said that his brother had been a worker for two years before he came here.
2) 間接引語中動(dòng)詞所表示的動(dòng)作或狀態(tài)說話時(shí)仍繼續(xù)進(jìn)行或存在進(jìn),其時(shí)態(tài)不變。
例如:”I am eight.” the boy said. The boy said that he is eight.
3) 直接引語中,如果表示過去的時(shí)間狀語用來表示事態(tài)發(fā)生或存在的具體時(shí)間,變間接引語時(shí),其謂語動(dòng)詞仍用一般過去時(shí)。
4)轉(zhuǎn)述習(xí)慣性動(dòng)作、客觀事實(shí)或科學(xué)真理時(shí),其時(shí)態(tài)不變。
5)引述動(dòng)詞為現(xiàn)在時(shí),間接引語中的動(dòng)詞可保持原來時(shí)態(tài)。
例如:He says, “I have accepted her invitation.” He says that he has accepted her invitation.
6).如果直接引語用虛擬語氣,變間接引語時(shí),仍用原來的動(dòng)詞形式。
例如:’I insist that you give up smoking,’ said the doctor.
The doctor insisted that he give up smoking.
7).時(shí)間狀語從句中的一般過去時(shí)或過去進(jìn)行時(shí),在間接引語中保持不變。
8).如果直接引語是以would like 作謂語的特殊疑問句,間接引語中would like 不變;如果直接引語是一般疑問句,like 之后接動(dòng)名詞或名詞作賓語,間接引語中would like也不變。
2.直接引語是祈使句變間接引語,通常將say 改為ask 或tell, order等詞,構(gòu)成ask (tell, order) sb. to do sth.結(jié)構(gòu)。原祈使句如果是否定的,要在不定式結(jié)構(gòu)前加not,原祈使句中如果帶有please一詞,間接引語也不再使用。
例如:‘Please open the second window,’ he said. He asked me to open the second window.
2.直接引語是感嘆句,變間接引語時(shí),謂語動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用一個(gè)能表達(dá)原意的詞語。
例如:She said, “What a lovely day.” She remarked with joy that it was such a lovely day.
