標題[請益] 請問這兩句
時間Sat Sep 11 12:28:33 2010
1.Welcome to a new year and a new year's worth of news from
CNN Student News.
2.Parts of New Zealand are trying to recover from a massive
earthquake that hit over the weekend. A couple people had
serious injuries.
3.Over in the Central American nation of Guatemala, people
are struggling through the strongest rain in 60 years.
More than 40,000 Guatemalans are at risk. What happens
is the powerful rain storms cause landslides.
1.請問worth不是不可數嗎?
2.請問是不是應該是A couple "of" people
3.請問是不是應該What has been happening is the powerful rain
storms cause landslides.
What happens能表示這種大雨目前還是一直下並持續造成土石流的情況嗎
非常謝謝~~~~
