Have you ever asked yourself why people often have trouble learning English I hadn’t, until one day my five-year-old son asked me whether there was ham in a hamburger. There isn’t. This made me realize that there’s no egg in eggplant either. Neither is there pine nor apple in pineapple. This got me thinking how English can be a crazy language to learn.
Neither Pine nor Apple in Pineapple
菠萝≠松树+苹果
Para1
1.have trouble(in)doing sth..意为"做某事有困难"
【师生互动】
2. Neither is there pine nor apple in pineapple.
neither…nor… 既不...也不...;可连结任意两个并列的成分。
(1) 连接两个主语时，谓语动词的数和邻近的主语一致--“就近一致”
谓语动词遵循“就近原则”either…or 或者…或者 ;
not only...but （also）不仅..而且;.. .not...but...不是...而是...
Neither Anna nor I am interested in this topic.
(2)neither/nor位于句首，句子部分倒装，即系动词、助动词、情态动词提到主语前
There is neither pine nor apple in pineapple.
Neither is there pine nor apple in pineapple.
He hasn’t done it and he won’t do it. --他没有做过，将来也不会做。
Neither has he done it, nor will he do it.

你有没有问过自己，为什么人们常常在学习英语方面有困难？我从未想过这个问题，直到有一天，我五岁的儿子问我hamburger(汉堡包)里是否有ham(火腿)。答案是没有。这让我意识到eggplant(茄子)里也没有egg(鸡蛋)。pineapple(菠萝)里既没有pine(松树)，也没有apple(苹果)。这让我陷入思考：对于学习者而言，英语到底可以有多疯狂呢？

For example, in our free time we can sculpt a sculpture and paint a painting, but we take a photo. And when we are traveling we say that we are in the car or the taxi, but on the train or bus! While we’re doing all this traveling, we can get seasick at sea, airsick in the air and carsick in a car, but we don’t get homesick when we get back home. And speaking of home, why aren’t homework and housework the same thing

we are in the car or the taxi, but on the train or bus!
The general rule:
For vehicles, anything considered to have a large floor space is ON and a small floor space is IN. Large means you can or must walk there (you walk to your seat, to the toilet, etc.), small means you can’t comfortably walk there (you either just stand or sit).
一般性规则:
对于交通工具来说，凡是被认为地板面积大的就是 ON，地板面积小的就是 IN。大意味着你可以或必须走到那里（你走到座位上，走到厕所等），小意味着你不能舒适地走到那里。
【师生互动】
例如，我们可以在闲暇时雕刻一座雕像(sculpt a sculpture)、画一幅画(paint a painting)，但我们只能拍一张照片(take a photo)。旅行时，我们坐汽车或出租车时是说坐在里面(in)，但是坐火车或公共汽车时却要说坐在上面(on)！同样，我们会在海上晕船(seasick at sea)、在飞机晕机(airsick in the air)、在车里晕车(carsick in a car)，但回到家里我们却不会“晕家”(homesick，实际意为“想家的，思乡的”)。说到家，为什么homework(家庭作业)和housework(家务)(这两个英语单词看起来很像意思却)不是一回事呢？

【师生互动】
If “hard” is the opposite of “soft”, why are “hardly” and “softly” not an opposing pair If harmless actions are the opposite of harmful actions, why are shameless and shameful behaviors the same
Para3
1.opposite adj.对立的；对面的；相反的 prep.在……对面 n.对立的人或事物；
(1)opposed adj.强烈反对；截然不同------be opposed to 反对……（to是介词）
(2)oppose v.反对，抵制------oppose （doing） sth.反对（做）某事
(3)opposing adj.（观点、意见等）相反的，相对立的
2.behavior n.举止，行为
good/bad/behavior良好/恶劣/的行为；show...behavior to/toward sb.对某人表现出…行为
behave v.检点，表现，举止得体；well-/badly-behaved adj.行为规矩的/表现差的
【师生互动】
如果说hard(硬)是soft(软)的反义词，为什么hardly(几乎不)和softly(柔和地，轻柔地)却不是一对反义词呢？如果说harmless actions(无害的行为)与harmful actions(有害的行为)意思相反，为什么无耻的行为(shameless behaviors)和可耻的行为(shameful behaviors)反而是一回事？
Para3翻译
【师生互动】
When we look out of the window and see rain or snow, we can say “it’s raining” or “it’s snowing”. But when we see sunshine, we can’t say “it’s sunshining”.
当我们望向窗外，看到雨(rain)或雪(snow)时，我们可以说正在下雨(it’s raining)或正在下雪(it’s snowing)。但当我们看到阳光(sunshine)时，我们不能说“正在下阳光”(it’s sunshining)。
Para4
【师生互动】
即使是最短小的单词都让人费解。当你在医学报告中看到大写的WHO时，你会把它读为Who’s that 中的who吗？那么“IT”和“US”又该怎么读呢？
Even the smallest of words can be confusing. When you see the capitalized “WHO” in a medical report, do you read it as the “who” in “Who’s that ” What about “IT” and “US”？
Para5
confusing adj.令人困惑的，难以理解的，不清楚的。常用来修饰物。
Para6
You also have to wonder at the unique madness of a language in which a house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out, and in which an alarm is only heard once it goes off!
你也会对英语这门语言独有的疯狂感到惊奇。在英语里，房子烧成灰烬时，可以说burn up(字面意思是“烧上去”)，也可以说burn down(字面意思是“烧下去”)；填表时，你可以说fill in a form(字面意思是“填入表里”)，也可以说fill out a form(字面意思是“填到表外”)；而且只有闹钟走了(go off字面意思是“离开”)以后你才能听到铃声！

英语是人创造的，不是计算机发明的，它反映了人类的创造力。这就是为什么stars are out(星星出现了)时，我们能看到星星，而当lights are out(灯光熄灭)时，我们却看不到灯光。这也是当我wind up my watch(给手表上紧发条)以后表针开始走，而我wind up this passage(将本文收尾)后这篇文章结束的原因。
【师生互动】
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race. That is why when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And that is why when I wind up my watch, it starts, but when I wind up this passage, it ends.
