Language points 1.For thousands of tourists from China,this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful and safe place to take a holiday. thousands of 意为“数以千计的；许许多多的”，是个 表示模糊概念的词，前不可用数词。而thousand意为 “一千”，表示具体数字，其前要加数词或a。 如：There are thousands of people on the street. 街上有成千上万的人。 There are two thousand students in the hall. 大厅中有一千个学生。 2. On the one hand,more than three quarters of the population are chinese,so you can simply speak Putonghua a lot of the time. （1）on the one hand 与 on the other hand 是英语 中常见的固定搭配，表示 “一方面..，另一方 面….”，通常用于列举某事物的两个方面。 如：On the one hand，parents should take good care of their children。On the other hand，children should respect their parents。 一方面，父母用该照顾好孩子， 另一方面，孩子也要尊敬父母。 （2） more than 意为“超过；多余”，相当 于over ，其后常加基数词或表达数量的词。 如：He is more than forty years old。 他已经四十多岁了。 3. Maybe you fear that you won’t be able to find anything good to eat when you travel. （1）本句是个含有that 引导的引语从句，be able to 意为“能够”，相当于can；不定式to eat 作不定代词anything 的后置定语。形容词修 饰不定代词时要放在不定代词后面。 如：I have something new to tell you。 我有新消息要告诉你。 （2）fear 是在此是及物动词，意为“害怕；惧怕”， 其后一般接名词、不定式、动名词或者that从句，如 fear to offend her或者fear offending her或者I fear that I may offend her。 如：I fear that he is going to die. 我担心他快死了。 He fears snakes.他害怕蛇。 4.
