n. 春天
on the one hand…… on the other hand……一方面……另一方面……
Point
1. On the one hand, more than three quarters of the population are Chinese, … On the other hand, … (教材P70 2b)
on the one hand…… on the other hand……意为“一方面……另一方面……”。其中on the one hand中的the也可以省略。

Point
2. For thousands of tourists from China, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful and safe place to take a holiday. (教材P70 2b)
thousand“千”，其用法与数词hundred“百”，million数词，意为“百万”，billion“十亿”相同，具体如下：
① 与具体数字连用时，用单数。
eg：He was prepared to pay two thousand yuan. 他准备支付2000万元。
He's sold more than 120 thousand records. 他已经售出了120万张唱片。
② 当表示泛指数目时，要用复数，且后面要接介词of，再接名词。hundreds of“数以百 计的；成百上千的”；thousands of“数以千计的，成千上万的”；millions of“数以百万计的；上百万的”。
eg：They plant thousands of trees every year. 他们每年种植成千上万棵树。
Thousands of people came to see the show. 数千人来看了那个展览。
口诀：模糊数字两有（有-s,有of）；具体数字两无（无-s,无of）。
3. …, so you can simply speak Putonghua a lot of the time. (教材P70 2b)

The machine is very simple to use.
分数的表达法
Point
4. On the one hand, more than three quarters of the population are Chinese, … On the other hand, … (教材P70 2b)
英语中的分数表达法为：分子用基数词，分母用序数词；当分子大于1时，分母要用复数形式。
eg：a quarter 四分之一 a half 二分之一
two thirds 三分之二 one fifth 五分之一
分数作主语时，谓语动词的单复数形式取决于分数后所接的名词和代词，如果是复数名词或代词，谓语一动词用复数形式；如果是不可数名词或单数名词，则谓语动词要用单数形式。
eg：Three fifths of the water is dirty. 五分之三的水是脏的。
Three fifths of the students in our class are girls. 我们班五分之三的学生是女生。
fear v. & n. 害怕；惧怕
Point
5. Maybe you fear that you won't be able to find anything good to eat when you travel. (教材P70 2b)
① fear 在此处作及物动词，意为“害怕；惧怕”，相当于be afraid of。
eg：Children usually fear to go out alone at night.
孩子们通常害怕晚上独自外出。
He fears that he may lose his job, so he works hard every day.
他害怕失去工作，所以他每天都努力工作。
② fear 还可作名词，意为“害怕；惧怕” 。be in fear of “害怕……；担心……”。
eg：Don't let a little fear stop you from getting what you want.
不要让一点点恐惧阻止你得到你想要的。

6. Whether you like Indian food, Western food or Japanese food, you'll find it all in Singapore!(教材P70 2b)
① 在此处 whether 作连词，常与 or 连用，意为“不管……（还是）；或者……（或者）”，引导让步状语从句。
eg：Whether the news is true or not, you should be prepared.
不管消息是真是假，你都应该做好准备。
I'm calling the doctor, whether you like it or not.
我要打电话叫医生来，不管你愿不愿意。
② whether 作连词，还可意为“是否”，引导宾语从句（名词从句）。
eg：My deskmate asked me whether I needed any help.
我的同桌问我是否需要帮助。
whenever conj. 在任何……的时候；无论何时
Point
7. So you can choose to go whenever you like — spring, summer, autumn or winter. (教材P70 2b)
whenever连词，意为“无论何时；在任何……时候”，与no matter when同义。类似的词还有：whatever = no matter what无论什么； however = no matter how 不管怎样；wherever = no matter where 无论哪里；whichever = no matter which 无论哪一 个；whoever = no matter who 无论谁
eg：Come and visit me whenever you want. 你随便什么时候想来就来看我吧。
