1，开始学习冠词和some，以及初步的可数不可数概念。a, the, some的使用。

2，开始接触短语概念，文中有些短语很实用，尤其课后练习提到的knock相关的短语动词：knock off, knock out, knock at, knock over.

3，在写"Later a neighbour told the writer that the beggar's name is Percy Buttons and he calls at every house in the street once a month to ask for a meal and a glass of beer."这个句子时，原本想写成"Later a neighbour told the writer that the beggar's name is Percy Buttons, who calls at every house in the street once a month to ask for a meal and a glass of beer." 但觉得头重脚轻，就放弃。然后转而考虑"...is Percy Buttons and (that) he calls at every house..."这里是否需要that. 这个已经上升到修辞方面了，比较难。

总体来说不难。今天原本打算提加薪，结果人事经理主动提了。做了一年，或许真的该做决断了，尽管我挺喜欢车间的大家。
