Speaking Use some useful expressions to practice your spoken English
Reading Language points: 1. “every+基数词+时间/距离单位” 表示“每多少时间/距离”。注意:在汉语中,“每四年=每隔三年”=every four years=every fourth day Eg. every five days=every fifth day=每五天=每隔四天, every three hours=every third hour=每三天=每隔两天 另外,特别的是“每隔一天”的表达方式有:every second day, every two days, every other day.
2. each 和 every的用法和区别 1) each着重于个别,有“各自”的含义,并不强调整体概念;every着重于全面而不是个别的每个,有“整体”的含义,指的是一个整体中的每一个组成部分或单位。
Eg. Each of them has a different view of the problem.(强调“各自”) Every one of them has the same view of the problem.(侧重“整体,无例外”)
2) each 一般只用来指可数的人或物中的一个,而every可以用来泛指一般的人或物。 Eg. I know each member of the club.(强调团体中的每一个) As every body knows, he is a good man. 3) Every不可用于指两者中的一个,each可以。
3. “in which young men competed”在句中作为定语从句修饰games,介词“in”可以放到competed后面。 4. Do one’s best=try one’s best 尽全力 5. Track and field 田径 6. In Sydney the Chinese team got 28 gold medals, ranking third of all the competing countries.动词-ing形式短语作伴随状语
