　　The cinema was in darkness when we went in and it was no easy job making our way to our seats. An old man was walking in front of us. He was luckier as he had a stick to help him find his way, just like a blind man.

　　“It's funny not to have any lights on before the film starts,” I said.

　　“And no music, either,” added my wife, “Well, perhaps they want to save electricity.”

　　We were in one of the rows near the entrance when we heard other people pass by. But we could not tell how many people were at the cinema. It was not crowded at that time of the day.

　　“It must be two o'clock already,” my wife said, getting restless. “Can you see your watch?”

　　My eyes had now got used to the darkness, and by bringing my watch close to my eyes, I could just make out that it was a little after two.

　　Just then the film started, but we were disappointed to find that there had been a change. It was not the film we wanted to see. They were showing an old film. My wife and I had seen it three times in the past two months!

When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.

    Language do not just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It’s important to master（掌握） the rules（规则） for word order in the study of English, too. If the sentences put words in a wrong order, the listeners can’t understand the speakers’ sentences easily. Sometimes when the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.

  “She only likes apples.” “Only she likes apples.”

  “I’ve seen the film already.” “I have already seen the film.”

  When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit（精神实际） of the language and use it as the English speakers do.
