difficulty即可作不可数名词，又可作可数名词，意为“困难”，用于下列句式： a. have + difficulty + (in) doing sth. 其中介词in可省略。它表示“在做某事时有困难”、“在……方面费劲”。difficulty前可用some, great, much, little, no等词饰饰。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. 名词前用介词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. 例如： (1)There was much difficulty (in) explaining it to him. 要给他解释清楚真费了不少劲。 (2)I find some difficulty (in) learning Russian. 我觉得学俄语有些困难。 (3)He finished his homework without (any) difficulty. 他毫不费力地完成了家庭作业。 (4)His English was very bad and he spoke with difficulty. 他的英语很差，说起来很吃力。 7. At first, the language stayed the same as th language used in Britain. 起初这种语言同在英国使用的语言仍然相同。 But Americans still talk about “fall” just as people do in some parts of western English. 但是美国人还是说 “fall” , 就像英格兰西部有些地区的人说 “fall”一样。 1)stay 在句中相当于连系动词，意为“保持某种状态”;相当于keep的意思，通常接形容词作表语，无被动语态。它还可以用作不及物动词，表示“停留”等，例如： The shop stayed open till 6 o’clock. 这家商店一直营业到六点。 句式一：stay + 形，维持(……的状态)。如： The windows stayed open all the night. 句式二：stay(+副)，停留(在某处)。如： You should stay in bed. 句式三：stay (+ 副)，留宿，客居，暂住。如： How long did you stay in New York? 2)the same as / the same …as 是“和……一样”的意思。在same之前总要加定冠词the。 as 是关系代词，引导限制性定语从句，as 在定语从句中作主语、宾语或表语。as 从句可用省略形式。如： This is the same material as is used in building the bridge. 这和建那座桥所用的材料一样。(as 作主语) 3)just as 意为“正如，恰似”，as 是连词，引导一个方式状语从句，有时也可引导表语从句。如： She loves singing just as her mother did. 她喜欢唱歌，正像她妈妈过去喜欢唱歌一样。 Jack didn’t feel just as his wife did. 汤姆并不像他妻子感受的那样。(引导表语从句。) 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. . . ?”是婉转提出要求时的礼貌用语，用would比用will更加礼貌，多用于对陌生人或长辈说话的场合。注意该句型后接动词原形，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 作介词，表示比例、比率，例如： One in ten students could solve the problem. 10.I know only a little English. 我只懂一点英语. little 作"少"解，有否定的意味，即"少得几乎没有"(almost no)的意思，a little虽然也作"少"解，但有肯定的意味，"即虽少但还有一点"的意思.而only a little 却是否定的.和little 同义,在非正式文体中一般用only a little来代替little. 试比较下列对话： A：I'm thirsty. Can you give me some water to drink? 我渴了，给我一点水喝好吗? B：Sure. There is a little water in the bottle. Take it.好的，瓶里还有一点水，拿去吧。 A：I'm thirsty. Can you give me some water to drink?我渴了，给我一点水喝好吗?
