日期:2010-10-14
1.I think teenagers, on the average, need eight to ten hours of sleep everyday. It's useless trying to force them to concentrate while they can't concentrate.

on the average平均起来,一般说来

例句:He spends on the average two hours a day on reading.
      他平均每天用两小时读书。

2.Enilton Neymakes in Brazil goes to sleep late and wakes up in the afternoon.

late, later, latter, latest, lately的区别及用法。

1)late adj. & adv. 迟,迟的,晚的,晚期,在晚期。如:

He is never late for school. 他上学从不迟到。

The train was 10 minutes late. 火车晚点十分钟。

南下打工仔经常是早上工,晚下班。

请记住以下几种搭配:

in the late afternoon 傍晚,在下午较晚的时候

in the late 1990's/1990s 在二十世纪九十年代末

work late/far/deep into the night 工作至深夜

late in autumn 深秋

另外, late 用作形容词还可用来表示“已故的,去世不久的;前任的,不久前卸任的”。如:

the late government 前任(上一届)政府

2)later adj. & adv. 为late比较级,意指较迟,较晚一些。如:

要记住以下几个固定搭配:

no later than不迟于

later on以后,后来。如:

The problem will be solved sooner or later. 这个问题迟早会得到解决。

另外,later 还可用作状语,表示“后来”之意。如:

Later he became a general. 后来他当上了将军。

3)latter adj. 意思是指(两者中)后者的,后者,反义词是former,(两者中)前者。注意,不要把latter与late的比较级later混淆。如:

两者中后者远比前者好。

4)latest adj. & adv. 为late的最高级。意思是最新、最近或最迟。如:

4.It reminds me of that old song: "It's nice to get up in the morning, but it's nicer to stay in bed."
