complain v. 抱怨 complaint n. 投诉;不满的事

eg He complained that he had too much work.
【注意】
complain后不能直接跟sb作宾语,要加介词to。有类似用法的词还有explain(解释).
complain (to sb) about sth (向某人)抱怨某事
stop … (from) doing sth 阻止……做某事
eg You can’t stop people from saying what they think.
阻止……做某事还有:
prevent … (from) doing sth
keep … from doing sth
protect… from…保护……不受……(危害)
【注意】
keep… from doing sth中的from不能省略,因为省略后keep… doing sth 表示“让……一直做某事”。
6. Interestingly, the letters did not contain the usual warnings to children that they might not receive their presents if they were not good.
interestingly是常用表达,用副词(常置于句首)修饰整个句子。其他常用副词还有 luckily, thankfully, generally speaking等。
eg Thankfully, you are back safe.
