PopulationThepopulationofChinaisabout1.37billion第2课时

►problem与questionproblem和question都有“问题”的意思，但用法却不尽相同：problem指说话者认为难以解决的问题，它与动词solve或settle(解决)搭配。而question指说话者需要寻找答案的问题，它常与动词ask或answer连用。►onefifth五分之一英语中分数表示法为：分子采用基数词，分母采用序数词且有单复数形式。分子大于1，分母要用复数形式。eg：oneseventh七分之一twosevenths七分之二►billion数词，意为“十亿”，当表示具体的“几十亿”时，用“基数词＋billion”表示，注意此时billion不用加“s”。eg：tenbillionyuan一百亿元【拓展】billionsof...表示“数十亿”，这时billion后有s，且后面有介词of，并且不能与数词连用。►Hangon！等一等！hangon意为“(耐心)等待”。常用于口语交际，意为“打住；不要再说下去了”。—Wecan'tdothis.Mymumsays...我们不能这么做。我妈妈说……—Hangon！You'reabigboy.Don'talwayssay“Mymumsays”．打住！你是个大男孩了。别总把“我妈妈说”挂在嘴边。【注意】hang(悬挂)—过去式及过去分词为hung；hang(吊死；绞死)—过去式及过去分词为hanged。【拓展】“Hangon.”也是一句电话用语，表示“别挂断”。
