Step V. Language points
1. no longer 不再
He no longer read books. 他不再看书了。
辨析：no longer 与 no more
(1) no longer中的longer是副词long的比较级，long有在某一时刻以后之意，着重表示时间的不再延续，意为“如今不再”，通常放在行为动词之前，be动词的后面。no longer可用not any longer代替；no longer 修饰延续性动词，如teach, live, work等，表示动作不再延续。
eg: Her father died, and after that she no longer went to school (=she didn’t go to school any longer) 她的父亲去世后，她就不再上学了。
(2) no more中的more是many / much的比较级more有again之意，着重表示数量或程度的减少，意为“再也没有更多（大）的数量（程度）”。
no more 等于not…any more ; no more /not… any more 与no longer/not...any longer同义，但用法有所区别；当涉及数量和程度时要用no more； no more修饰非延续性动词，如come, go, make (the same mistake)等，表示动作不再发生。
eg: There is no more bread.没有面包了。
2. at least 至少；起码
She was at least that much shorter than me. 她至少比我矮这么多。
We need at least 2 hours. 我们至少需要两小时。
3. be angry with sb. 表示 “生某人的气”。
如：I shall be angry with you if you break the cup. 你要是把杯子打坏的话，我会生气的。
4. The reason is that he thinks something will go wrong if I play games on it.
原因是他认为如果我在电脑上玩游戏，电脑就会出毛病。
(1) reason原因；理由，其后可接for, that。
I have no reason for it. 我没有理由这样做。
Give me your reason for doing it. 告诉我你做这事的理由。
(2) go wrong 表示 “出毛病，出故障；出错”。如：
