There are only 26 letters in English. So English is an easy language to learn, right Well, not exactly.
Yes, English only has 26 letters, but those 26 letters can make a lot of words. In fact, there are about 800 000 words in the English language.
One letter like “a”, can be an English word. And just one word, like “Go” can be a sentence.
Presentation
There is an English word with about 1 900 letters in it. Wow! That’s a long word.
This sentence uses all 26 letters: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
Look at this word: level. You can read it forwards or backwards—it’s the same word!
The word “therein” has ten words in it. You don’t even need to move any letters around. How many words can you find
Dig in and enjoy!

Language points
【辨析】there be与have
there be 强调的是某地存在某人或者某物，并非表示所属关系，不能与作实义动词的have在一个句子中同时使用。
there be句型的主语是be动词后的名词，所以be动词要跟其后的名词在人称和数上保持一致。如果其后跟的是单数可数名词或不可数名词，be用is；如果其后跟的是复数名词，则用are；如果其后跟的主语是并列的多个名词，就需要根据最靠近be动词的那个名词的单复数来确定。
Language points
【辨析】there be与have
there be句型的一般疑问句句式：Is/Are/Was/Were there...
肯定回答：Yes, there is/are/was/were.
否定回答：No, there isn’t/ aren’t/ wasn’t/weren’t.
※ There is a football under the desk.书桌下有一个足球。(表示存在)
※ There are some bananas and an orange in the basket.
篮子里有一些香蕉和一个橙子。(最靠近be的是some bananas)
Language points
【辨析】there be与have
have 意为“有”，强调的是所属关系，其主语往往是人。作为实义动词时，不能用在there be句型中。其第三人称单数形式为has。
※ I have a pet. It’s a rabbit.
我有一只宠物。它是一只兔子。(表示拥有)
2. exactly adv. 正确地，完全地，精确地
该词是由形容词exact加上副词后缀 ly构成的，在句中常作状语。
※ I know exactly how she felt. 我完全清楚她的感受。
【注意】not exactly意为“并没有，并非如此”。
※—Is she your favourite singer 她是你最喜欢的歌手吗？
—Not exactly, but I think she is a wonderful singer.
不完全是这样。但是我认为她是一位了不起的歌手。
Language points
3. in fact 事实上，实际上
相当于“as a matter of fact”，多用于句首，后用逗号与其他部分隔开。
※ In fact, life is the most important thing.
事实上，生命是最重要的东西。
Language points
4. dig v. 挖，掘
其过去式和过去分词均为dug；现在分词为digging。
※ They dug deeper and deeper but still found nothing.
他们越挖越深，却一无所获。
