今日語言點(diǎn)

?

1）Battling

Battle?作名詞的時候表示“戰(zhàn)斗”，作動詞的時候表示“與……戰(zhàn)斗”，它和?fight?不太一樣，當(dāng)我們說?sb. fights?的時候通常有強(qiáng)調(diào)這個人的主觀努力，而說?sb. battles?的時候就沒有，比如文中顯然是對?Facebook?持批判態(tài)度的。

?

2）Of more than 70 popular apps

如果后面需要描述的東西是整體中的一部分，并且要講到比例，那這個結(jié)構(gòu)可以直接用來做狀語，表示“在……之中”。

?

3）Revelation?n.披露

這個詞是?reveal?的名詞形態(tài)，使用的時候通常后面接?that?從句描述揭露的是什么。
