注意1）如果没有冠词或其他限定词，whole不能与单数名词连用。►Thewholecitywasburning.整个城市都在燃烧。2）whole一般不与不可数名词及物质名词连用。（误）thewholemoney/bread（正）allthethemoney/bread
3.infrontofcrowds.现在她再也不羞涩了，并且喜欢当众唱歌。(1)not...anymore=nomore，意为“不再”。►Hedoesn’tcomelateanymore.=Henomorecomeslate.他不再迟到了。(2)crowd此处用作名词，意为“人群；观众；一帮人”。►Hepushedhiswaythroughthecroivd.他在人群中往前挤。►Therewerecrowdsofpeopleatthetheater.剧院里挤满了人。

5.Ididn’tusetobepopularinschool,butnowIgettonsofattentioneverywhereIgo.过去我在学校里默默无闻，但是现在无论我走到哪里，都得到太多的关注。（1）tonsof意为“很多的；大量的”，是英语中一种夸张的表达方式。ton的本义为“吨”。►Hehasbeenlateforschooltonsoftimes.他上学屡次迟到。（2）get…attention意为“得到/引起……注意”。►Hetriedtogettheattentionofapassingpoliceman.他试图引起一位路过的警察的注意。
