1．People living in different countries，这里living…短语是修饰people的，表示住在不同国家

的人们。

2．fifteen hundred languages，数字修饰名词的用法，几百几千+名词复数时，百千不变，名词变。

3．thousands of words 百千没有具体数修饰，而是用thousands of或者hundreds of这时，百千要加

s。

4．try to make try to do sth，尽量做某事。

5．as…as 与什么一样怎么样。Do sth as…as you can.做尽你能做的什么事。Read as many books

as you can．去读你能读的那么多书。

6．books written in easy English 用简单英语写的书，written in easy English修饰books。第1和

第6的语法现象将在你们初三和高中的时候重点学习。
