When Xi Wang was born, she weighed just 100 grams. 1) was born 出生，出世 e.g. Shewas bornin America. 她出生于美国。 2) weigh在此句中是个及物动词，意为“重量为”，可直接跟基数词加重量单位。 e.g. He weighs 150 pounds. 他的体重是150磅。2. In the beginning, Xi Wang drank her mothers milk. beginning n. 开始，起初 （动词begin的名词） in the beginning等于at first，意思是“开始，起初”，与later（后来）相对。短语at the beginning (of) 指开始的时间或地点。如：e.g. Our summer holiday starts at the beginning of July. 我们的暑假从七月初开始。He was a little shy in the beginning. 起初他还有点害羞。3. Sadly, giant pandas face serious problems in the wild. 句中的face用作动词，意思是“面临”。face还有“面对，面朝”的意思。如：Most of the rooms face south.多数房间朝南。4. Also, giant pandas live mainly on a special kind of bamboo.live on 以食为生e.g. You cant live on bread alone. 你不能仅靠面包维生。 5. As a result, pandas may not have a place to live or food to eat.as a result 因此e.g. He didnt work hard, as a result he failed his exam.他不用功，结果考试不及格。6. Giant pandas are now in danger. in danger 指处于危险的境地 e.g. The old man is ill. Hes in danger. 那个老人生病了。他现在处于危险的境地。7. We should take action right away. 1) take action to do 采取措施/行动 e.g. Its time for us to take action to protect wild animals. 是时候我们应该采取行动去保护野生动物了。 2) right away 立刻，马上 e.g. You must give up smoking and drinkingright away. 你必须立刻戒烟戒酒。 Step 2 Exercises1.
