要点领悟
马克思生在德国,他非常擅长学习语言。他不仅能自如地运用英语,而且只用了六个月时间就掌握了足够的俄文,能阅读俄文版的报刊和杂志。不过,他在介绍英语学习的经验时,也曾诉苦说:“I am not too sure about two things, the grammar and some of the idioms.”。英语学习中,句型结构和固定搭配的确是初学者的“拦路虎”。

精讲点拨
(1)将As改为It。“It is known to all that+从句”是一个固定结构。意思是“众所周知……”。
(2)句型there is/are表示“某地有某物”，该句型强调“存在”，而have/has常用来表达“某人有某物”，强调“所有”，其主语通常是人。因此，将have改为are。
(3)将harm改为harmed。“have sth. done”是一个固定结构,意思是“使 / 让某物遭受……”。本句的意思是“吸烟产生的毒气很可能使他们(妇女、儿童)的健康遭受到侵害”,因为health被smoke损害,因此,要用过去分词harmed,以表示被动的含义。
(4)英语中表达“某人做某事很不容易”常用句型“It is not easy for sb. to do sth.”。 应将giving up smoking改为give up smoking。
(5)let’s后要跟动词原形构成“Let’s do sth.”结构。应将enjoying改为enjoy。
