the settlement of Australia 和 the settlement in Australia 都是對的,the settlement of Australia較常用,強(qiáng)調(diào)發(fā)生地點(diǎn)及所屬關(guān)系.the settlement in Australia 不常用,只指明發(fā)生地點(diǎn),沒有多一層的所屬含義.In t...It is fairly clear that the sleeping period must have some function,and because there is so much of it the function would seem to be important.這里的would是大概的意思吧？可去哪里找過去的時點(diǎn)呢？或者would可表示現(xiàn)在大概的時點(diǎn)？那為什么不用may?[表示推測]大概, 該是I would be about ten when my brother left home.我哥哥離開家時, 我大概十歲左右 。(這句里能找到過去的時點(diǎn))謝謝
