又如：Seeing is believing .
2.Most adults who are learning a second language would disagree with this statement.
试找出句子的主干：
此句中who are learning a second language 是定语从句，用来修饰most adults.
Would 的用法?
3.Hundred, thousand, million, billion 表确数时不用复数形式，表概数时加S

Thousands of …
Millions of…
Billions of…

5.Conversely, some people who are successful language learners find it difficult to succeed in other fields.
Who 引导了一定从，it 为形式宾语，真正宾语是后面不定式。
6.Language teachers often offer advice to language learners,…
注意offer 的用法：offer sb sth 或者 offer sth to sb
advice 是不可数名词，不能说an advice , 同样也没有词形变化，不能加S。
听从某人建议，我们说take/follow one''s advice

13.be willing to do sth 愿意做某事
不愿做某事的表达方法：
be unwilling to do sth
be reluctant to do sth

That 引导的定从修饰the information
Information 为不可数名词
15. It''s more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.
16. Learn from… 向….学习
