Chapter 02 晕车晕船

情景对话

▶bring sb sth表示“给某人带来某物”，其中sb是间接宾语，sth是直接宾语。

▶ask sb for a favor意为“找某人帮个忙”。如果要表示“帮某人的忙”，可以用do sb a favor。

▶bit作名词，意为“一点儿，少量”，在句中作定语的时候，经常用短语a bit of；另外，a bit充当程度副词时，其后面不用加of，但如果修饰的是名词则of不能去掉。

▶feel much better意为“感觉好多了”，可以指心情，也可指身体感受；much在短语中作副词，表示程度，多用来修饰形容词或副词的比较级或最高级，也可用来修饰动词。

▶can hardly..．意为“几乎不能……”, hardly含有否定意义，当hardly位于句首时，句子要用倒装句式。
