When you are learning English, you find it not clever   41   an English sentence, word to word, into your own language. Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an example. If you   42   each word in the dictionary, one   43   a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.

Languages do not just have different sounds, they are   44   in many ways. It’s important to master the rules for word order（顺序）in the study of English, too. If the speakers put words   45   a wrong order, the listeners can’t understand the speaker’s sentences   46   . Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the   47   of the sentence   48   . But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s see the   49   between the two pairs of the sentence.

“She only likes apples.” “Only she likes apples.”

“I have seen the film already.” “I have already seen the film.”

When you are learning English, you must try your best   50   the spirit（精神实质）of the language and use it as the English speakers.
