1.Kids these days already have enough stress from school.
stress 为不可数名词,意为“精神压力;心理负担”。 enough作形容词,修饰名词时,可放在名词前,也可放在名词后,习惯放在名词前。enough作副词时,要放在形容词/副词后,即后置。
We have enough money to buy a car.
我们有足够的钱来买一辆汽车。
He does his homework carefully enough.
他做作业十分认真。
【拓展】“enough+名词+to do sth.”表示“(有)足够的……可以做某事”;
“not+形容词+enough (for sb.) +to do sth.”表示“不够……去做某事”。
