关于英语语法的问题，我们是这样认为的：语法不是万能的！而且，要想讲流利的英语，也不是一定要精通语法才行，语法千变万化，每一天都会改变，只要人民改变了说话的习惯，语法也就相应的必须改变了，语法是由人们创造的，而不是由语法家创造的！何况，以英语为母语的人，又有几个是精通语法的呢？当你问他们为什么英语要这么讲时，他们只能告诉你，“我们天生就是这么讲的，That comes naturally!”。我们真的很希望大家最后能达到那样的境界，就是把英语变成一种习惯，这才是学英语的最高境界！希望大家早日突破英语语法关！

上一期的语法测试，我们共收到四位朋友的答案，感谢他们的积极参与，也希望其他朋友参加进来！该测试原文请参考本页下方，新的测试将在国庆节以后提供：）

5.and这个词

and这个字，在口语中用得很松散，差不多每一个句子都有and，表示还有话要说下去，就像汉汉语中的"嗯……。"但在写作中，and的用法却一定要很严谨，要不然写出的英文就不好了。 and通常用来连接平衡的句子万分，如前面用名词，后面也用名词；前面是动词，后面也是动词；前面是片语，后面也是片语；前面是从句，后面也是从句。例如：

I have two elder brothers and three younger sister. (Noun)
我有两兄三妹。
They were talking and laughing when I entered the ball room. (Verb)
我走进舞厅时，他们言谈正欢。
I didn't know what our problem was and how we could solve it. (Clause) 我不知我们的问题所在，也不知道怎样解决。

学生易犯的错误是and前后的句子成份不平衡。 如： (×) (1) I have two elder brothers and like me very much. 我有两个哥哥，他们很疼我。 (×) (2)They were talking, laughing and happy. 他们谈着笑着，很高兴。 (×) (3) I didn't know what to do and where I schould complain about it! 我不知道该怎办，也不知往哪里投诉！ 该怎么写呢？ (1) I have two elder brothers and they like me very much. (2) They were talking, laughing and they were happy. (3) I didn't know what to do and where to complain about it! 另外一个易犯的错误，是把and放在不恰当位置。例如： (×) Mrs Chen came into the classroom and put down her books on the teacher's desk, said, "good morning, class." 陈老师走讲课室，放下书，说："各位同学，早上好！" and作为并列接词，若所连接的句子成份有三个或以上，通常 "and" 是放在最后一个成份的前面。一般的结构是"X, Y and Z" 。而"X and Y and Z"是加强语气的结构。至于 "X, Y, Z"是绝无仅有的。"X, Y and Z"则完全不可以。因此上观的句子应写为： Mrs Chen came into the classroom, put down her books on the teacher's desk and said, "Good morning, class."
