The Power of a SmilePPT, Part 3: Textbook Interpretation

1.Students often gather together in small, closed groups.

Gather means "to gather (people, things), to gather, to gather", and is often used together with together and up.

2.If you are not part of a group, it can be difficult for you to be accepted.

◆It in this sentence is the formal subject, difficult is the predicate; for you to be accepted is the infinitive compound structure as the real subject, in which to be accepted is the passive form of the infinitive, which means "to be accepted".

◆can be means "maybe" and is a "modal verb can+be" structure, expressing an inference about the possibility of a person or thing. Its negative form is can’t be, which means “it cannot be” and expresses negative speculation.

【Expansion】must be means "must be", indicating a definite speculation.

3.Before he arrived, he knew there would be many difficulties.

Before he arrived in this sentence is a time adverbial clause. In the following main clause, he is the subject, and there would be many difficulties is an object clause. The main clause is in the simple past tense, and the object clause is in the past future tense. The past tense expresses an action or a state that will occur in the future from a certain moment in the past. It is mostly used in object clauses where the predicate verb of the main clause is past tense.

4.But they were even worse than he imagined.

Even here is an adverb, meaning "even; more". It can be used before the comparative form of adjectives or adverbs to strengthen the tone.

[Extension] Words (groups) commonly used to modify the comparative form of adjectives or adverbs include: much, rather, far, still, a little, a bit, a lot, etc.

5.But he had no way to let them know that he was a good person.

no way to do sth. means "there is no way to do something".

6.He simply couldn’t find the right words to reach them.

◆Simply is an adverb, meaning "just, just", which is equivalent to just.

◆Reach in this sentence means "to impress; to win; to influence".

7.Somehow, he had to adapt to this new environment.

◆somehow in this sentence means "no matter what".

◆Adapt means "adapt to..." and is often paired with the preposition to. Refers to slightly changing some characteristics to fit something else.

8.He did a little research on the Internet and discovered that smiling is a universal language—it is understood everywhere.

◆discover is a transitive verb here, meaning "to discover", which refers to discovering things that originally existed but were not known; sometimes it also refers to recognizing a certain situation.
