24 Language Points 1.I think natural wonders are more interesting than man-made ones. 1) I think 为主句,后面是省略了连接词 that 的宾语从句。如: I think maths is more difficult than English. 2) ones 作代词,指代 wonders. ones 指代 复数名词,同类不同物。如 : These pictures are more colourful than those ones.

25 2. Hm, I’ve never seen it, so I’m not sure I agree with you. 1) 并列连词 so 连接两个分句, 表因果关系 。如: The work has been finished, so you needn’t come. 2) be (not) sure ( 不 ) 确定。 其后接不定式 ,也可接从句。如: I’m sure to come. I’m not sure you are right.

26 3. They’re about 1,700 metres wide and 100 metres high. 物体长、宽、高等的表达为:数词 + 计量 词 + long/wide/high. 它相当于 “ 数词 + 计量 词 +in length/width/height”. 如: The river is about 2,000 metres long. = The river is about 2,000 metres in length.
