part iv: language points
1. how much progress in english do you think you’ve made this year, lingling?
本句是雙重疑問句，how much progress 提問的是從句中的內容，主句為do you think, 再如下面的問句：
what do you think has happened to him? he hasn’t turned up yet.
who do you think will be elected as president?
when do you think the meeting will start?  
2. above all, it’s the subject that i’m best at, although my handwriting could be better.
注意本句中表達書法不好的委婉說法：my handwriting could be better。另外，注意表述最重要的因素時使用的above。再如：
i prefer to live in the suburb. the air is clean, traffic is light, and above all, the cost of living is low.
3. learning a foreign language requires a certain effort, however easy it is.
however在本句中意思是“不管多么”，用來連接讓步狀語從句，一般情況下however后要接形容詞或副詞，如：
however simple it is, you should be careful.
however hard you try, you won’t persuade him.
連接讓步狀語從句時，however, wherever……之類的結構在口語中可用no matter how / where……結構替代，如：
no matter who you are, you should obey the law.
＝ whoever you are, you should obey the law.
no matter when he comes, he always brings some presents.
＝ whenever he comes, he always brings some presents.
wherever you are, you can hear people speaking english.
＝ no matter where you are, you can hear people speaking english.
4. you mean, those clubs where you go to practise your english?
這里you mean表示“你意思是說……?”， 常用于口語中，用于核實你確實聽懂了某人所說的話。例如：
