Jhn's ld enugh t take care f himself.约翰足够大了，能照顾他自己了。
重点: enugh 作副词修饰形容词或副词时，应置于被修饰词的后面。enugh t 结构可与 “s… that…” 结构相互转换。
Tm is funny enugh t make us laugh.= Tm is s funny that he can make us laugh.
汤姆非常有趣，可以将我们逗乐。
二、t… t…
教材原句Als, they are t kind t push past yu when yu are in their way.
此外，他们过于善良，你挡了他们的路时，他们也不会推开你。

Everyne lves receiving gifts, and acrss cultures, presents are a way t shw care and lve. Hwever, traditins are nt the same in every cuntry.
As a Eurpean living in China, I’ve seen sme interesting differences. Fr example, while fruit and milk are cmmn gifts here, in my culture, they might be a better chice when yu are visiting smene in the hspital.
