M3U2 ProjectLanguage pointsDifficult sentences1. Not all characters were developed from drawings to objects. (L17, Page38)并不是所有的汉字都由物体画像发展而来。句中not all意为“并不是所有的”，表示部分否定。英语中的all, both, every, everybody, everything, complete/completely, always, entirely等具有总括意义的代词、形容词和副词与否定词not连用，构成部分否定，表示“不都，并非都”的意思。eg. Not all of them know the answer.=All of them dont know the answer. 并不是他们中所有的人都知道答案。【注意】not all=all not 并非所有都not both =both not 并非两个都Eg. _. 有钱人并非总是幸福的。_. 这两本书我并不都喜欢。_.并不是每个学生都看过这部电影。【知识拓展】若要表示全部否定，则应用相应的表示全部否定的否定词。all none (一个人也没有；没有任何东西)both neither (两者都不)every noeveryone no one(nobody)everything nothingeg. _ knew the truth. 他们俩都不知道真相。2. While the students found the soldiers idea interesting, the system was too difficult to be of practical use.
