It’s important to master(掌握) the rules(规则) for word order in the study of English, too. If the sentences put words in a wrong order, the listeners can’t understand the speakers’ sentences easily. Sometimes when the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.“She only likes apples.” “Only she likes apples.”“I’ve seen the film already.” “I have already seen the film.”When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit(精神实际) of the language and use it as the English speakers do.( )1.
