1、Do the English speak English?
English：n. 英语，英国人，英格兰人
adj. 英国的，英格兰的
the English 统称英国人，所以助动词用复数
问题的答案： the answer to the question
大楼的入口：the entrance to the building
都表示一种由此及彼的方向。
4、I not only spoke English very carefully, but very
clearly as well. not only...but...as well = not only…but also…
yet [jet] adv. 然而、还,放在句末或句中, 与否定句, 疑
问句相连, 并且与现在完成时用得比较多 eg. Have you finished yet? yet=but 连词，放在两个句子间, 起转折作用
eg. They broke up several times, but married in the
end finally 一种次序上的最后
firstly, secondly, finally
3、I did not know the way to my hotel, so I asked a porter. the way to: to 是介词，介词短语充当the way的定语，表…的意思，类似的如： 房门的钥匙： the key to the door
不但……而且……
eg. I can speak not only Chinese but English as well. Not only you but also I will go there. 主语并列(一般不这么用) not only喜欢放在动词的前面，一般遇到实义动词和非实 义动词的时候, 习惯放在两者之间 eg. I can not only speak Chinese but English as well. (更习惯的说法)
