matter的详细讲解：
matter的基本含义是指与精神相对的“物质,物体”,泛指构成客观物体或宇宙的所有物质,在物理学上指由很少的几种基本粒子构成的物质,在哲学上则指与意识相对的物质,是不可数名词,表静态概念。
matter也可指思想或表达的“题材”,书籍、演说等的“内容”,与“形式”相对,是不可数名词。
matter也可作“事情”解,有时可转化为“问题”解。the matter指“麻烦事,困难,毛病”,在句中可用作表语或后置定语,常用在what, something, anything或nothing后。复数形式matters意为“情形,事态”,而不是“多件事”。
matter还可作“重要性”解,为不可数名词,有时也可作“原因”“理由”解。
(in) a matter of还可与表示时间、距离、金钱的词连用,意为“…左右,…上下”,有“很少”的意味。
what's the matter有两种译法：如果要询问有关的人或物时, the matter相当于wrong(毛病,故障),意为“出了什么事”,是习惯用语。另外, matter还可作“物质”解,是不可数名词。例如:What's the matter with that boy?那男孩出了什么事?What's the matter with your leg?你的腿怎么了?What's the matter in the bottle?瓶里装的是什么物质?
matter用作可数名词多指“事态,问题”,但指一般事情常用something, anything, 指具体的问题时常用question, problem,一般不用matter。
matter是不及物动词,基本意思是“对人们有重大关系,要紧”“重要,有严重性”。
matter常用于以it作形式主语的结构中,其真实主语一般为现在分词短语、that从句、wh-从句或if/whether从句。
在回答别人的道歉时,应该说It doesn't matter,不说no matter。
matter用于医学上,指“化脓”。
matter是表示静态的动词,一般不用于进行体。
matter后跟more and more或less and less短语时,可用于进行时态,因为matter已由状态性动词转化为运动性动词了。例如:Class origin seems to be mattering less and less, but diploma appears to be mattering more and more these days.如今家庭出身似乎越来越次要了,而文凭却越来越显得重要。
in a matter of, in the matter of
两者不容混淆:in a matter of的意思是“只消,不过”; 而in the matter of的意思是“关于,对于”。例如:
You can finish the course in a matter of weeks.你只消几周就能学完这门课程。
Jimmy has a name in the matter of enthusiasm in work.吉米的工作干劲是有名的。
matter, affair, business, concern, thing
这组词在含糊地指那些所做的事时意义相近,常可互换。例如：
It is a regretful affair〔business, concern, matter, thing〕.这是一件遗憾的事。
I don't talk to her about private affairs〔business, concerns, matters, things〕.我从不和她谈私事。
它们之间的区别在于：
1.从模糊程度上看, affair＜matter＜thing, thing的词义最不确切,常可用在有意使概念含混不清的场合。例如：
How did you find things in America?你觉得美国怎样?
2.从含义上看, affair强调运行或操作过程,如一道程序,一笔交易,一个行动,一项事业等。business强调职责关系,例如：
It is her business to take good care of the baby.看护好这个婴儿是她的职责。
concern强调利害相关,例如：
It is no concern of mine.此事与我无关。
matter强调必须考虑和处理,例如：
We have a lot of matters to do.我们有许多事情要做。
thing则是一般用语,口语中常表示说话内容预先未考虑好或说话者力图掩饰自己的观点,例如：
I've another thing to talk with you.我还有一件事跟你说。
3.从用法上看, business不能用复数,而affair在指重大的或头绪较多的事务时则需要用复数。
4.从搭配范围上看,与foreign、international、state等词连用时只能用affair,在短语have an affair with sb (与某人有不正当男女关系)中也只能用affair。在指商业上的生意和活动或指“公事”“正事”时只能用business,例如：
It's a pleasure to do business with you.很高兴和你做生意。
Business before pleasure.公事比娱乐要紧。
口语中作“出了毛病”“失常”解时,只能用matter而不能用affair和business,例如：
What's the matter with you?你怎么啦?
在泛指“东西”“物品”时,用affair和thing均可。例如：
And these Tubes were convenient things〔affairs〕.而这地下铁道是非常方便的东西。
matter, material, stuff, substance
这组词都可表示“物质”。其区别在于:
1.matter泛指构成客观物体或宇宙的所有物质。在物理学上指由很少的几种基本粒子构成的物质; 在哲学上则指与mind(意识)相对的物质。例如:
Matter occupies space.物质占据空间。
2.stuff, material和substance都可指构成或制作某物的材料或零件, material特指人造制品的制作原料, substance则指某种可使某物具有某种特性的特殊物质。例如:
Hope is the stuff that dreams are made of.希望正是构成理想的材料。
The tips of matches are covered with chemical substance.火柴头上包着一层化学物质。
3.material还可指文学创作的素材,而其他的词却无此义。例如:
He is now collecting material for a biography of Du Fu.他正在为写作杜甫传记而收集资料。
4.stuff是日常用语,不用于科技文体中,而其他的词则可用作科技术语。例如:
He was told to move his stuff out of the room.人家叫他把他的东西搬出房间去。
下面两个句子意思不同:
It doesn't matter about me.
不必为我担心。
It doesn't matter to me.
我不在乎。
这些名词均含“事情”之意。
:affair含义较广，侧重指已发生或必须去做的任何事情或事务。复数形式多指重大或较复杂的事务。
:business通常指较重要或较难而又必须承担的事情，也可指商事。
:matter普通用词，着重指一件考虑中的或需要处理的事。
:concern往往强调与个人或团体利害有直接或重大关系的事。
:thing用作“事情”解时，词义较笼统、含糊，多用于指不很具体的事。
这些名词均含“物质，东西”之意。
:material通常指组成客观存在物的部分或其原料。
:matter通常指构成实物的物质，与精神相对立。在科学上，指占有空间，并能以某种方式被感官觉察的一切东西。
:substance多指某一种形式的物质，既可指元素也可指化合物。
:stuff多用于日常生活中，非正式用词，常指构成整体的所有部分、物体或项目，有时指劣等材料，含轻蔑意味。
这些名词均含“问题”之意。
:problem指客观上存在的、难以处理或难以理解的问题。
:question通常指用口头或书面提出来要求回答或有待讨论解决的问题。
:issue多指意见能达到一致的问题，但要通过争论或讨论解决。
:matter含义不很具体，暗示人们考虑和关心的事和话题。

正 The physical world is composed of matter.
析 matter作“物质”解时是不可数名词。
误 What's the matter to you?
正 What's the matter with you?

误 There wasn't any matter with the radio.
正 There was nothing the matter with the radio.

正 As a matter of fact he was pretending to be asleep.
析 as a matter of fact是固定说法,表示“事实上”。

误 I have several matters to do.
正 I have several things to do.
析 matter虽可用作可数名词,并可说a matter,但不可说two matters, several matters,可改用two things, several things。
无论你给那个孩子什么东西,他都会吃的。
误 The child will eat no matter what you give him.
正 The child will eat whatever you give him.
析 no matter what引起的从句不能作主语或宾语,而whatever可以引导主语从句或宾语从句。
问题是车内没有位置容纳你,所以我们无法带你一起去。
误 The matter is that we won't have enough room in the car to take you with us.
正 The problem is that we won't have enough room in the car to take you with us.
析 the matter作“问题”或“麻烦”解时不用作主语。
你来不来对他都无关紧要。
误 It doesn't matter with him whether you will come or not.
正 It doesn't matter to him whether you will come or not.
析 表示“…对某人无关紧要”,应该说It doesn't matter to sb,其中介词 to 不能改用with。
☆ 1300年左右进入英语，直接源自殖英诺曼底语的matere；最初源自古典拉丁语的materia，意为一颗树的硬实的树心，组成事物的材料。

ladder to the dusty, cold third floor. I looked around and noticed
a very old basket in the comer, in which I found letters piled
high, faded and dirty-untouched there. As I opened each letter, I
discovered a new and previously unrevealed page of my parents'
My father served in the Army. He wrote
about his daily experiences with civilians, German POWs, baths and
more. I was drawn to these letters. Each of my mother's letters was
sealed with her 1944 lipstick kiss. Daddy wrote that he sealed his
return letters by rekissing her lipstick kiss. Oh, how they missed

letters and discovered there were at least eleven months missing.

Daddy became very ill and was hospitalized. He was scheduled for
kidney dialysis (肾透析)when I decided to fly to visit him. We
discussed the letters. He told me how much receiving those
lipstick-kissed letters had meant to him when he had been so far
from home. As I left, the thought raced through my mind that
tomorrow was Valentine's Day. But I quickly dismissed this
thought. My father wasn’t in any kind of shape to shop for a
valentine. My parents had been married for fifty-six years. My
mother would understand that her valentine would just have to be
skipped this

Mother and I revisited the attic in search of the lost letters.

father had sent Mother in

and I visited Daddy in the hospital. I joked with him, saying
softly, “Today is Valentine's Day, and I know you have been a

him the card. He carefully opened the card, and when he recognized
it, his eyes filled with

what stood out from the rest was the Pavlova, a treat made with

Peter Macaulay, an adviser to the Embassy
of New Zealand who attended with his two children, Brianna and

controversial.
Named after a Russian ballet dancer who visited the country in
1927, the Pavlova was created by the New Zealanders in honor of
their special guest. The hullabaloo started when the dancer
was honored with the same exact dish when she visited. Ever since,

The Harry Potter author was identified in
a newspaper article last week. On a website Rowling said 8,500
English language copies had been sold in all forms, including
e-books, before her
unmasking.
& The author added that
she had received two offers from television production companies.
“The situation was becoming increasingly complicated, largely
because Robert was doing rather belter than we had expected him
to,” she said. “But we all still hoped to keep the secret a little
longer. Robert’s success during his first three months as a
published writer (discounting sales made after I was found out)
actually compares favourably with JK Rowling's success over the
similar period of her

Bookseller reported the hardback had sold fewer than 500 copies in

coincided with the paperback release of The Casual Vacancy — her
first official post-Potter work — which sold 19,548 copies in the

& Is there a connection between a
nation’s contributions to international aid programs and the
happiness of its citizens? According to a study of nine European
donor (捐赠人)countries, there is a direct relationship between
the level of foreign aid and level of happiness in the UK and
France but for other European countries there seems to be no link.
Full details of the analysis and its conclusions are published this
month in the journal Global Business and Economics
Review.&&&&&&
& Mark Arvin and Byron
Lew of Department of Economics,in., have investigated the old
proverb that it’s better to give than receive. Previous research
has suggested that for individuals giving money to worthy causes
brings more happiness than spending it oneself. Elizabeth Dunn and
colleagues at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, found
that people said they were much happier if they were spending money
“pro-socially” — that is on gifts for others or on charitable
donations — rather than spending it on
themselves.
& Whether this proposal
translates to the national level is open to question, but Arvin and
Lew hoped to confirm that it is indeed the case by looking at the
foreign aid disbursements (支付款) of nine
donor countries in Europe and using general measures of happiness
among a nation's citizens. Their statistical analysis hoped to
reveal whether happiness levels could predict levels of aid
& “Our results reveal
that for two important European donors, France and the, the
aid-happiness link is a positive causal relationship from happiness
to aid,” the team says. “In addition, for, there is also a positive
causal connection from aid to happiness. This leads us to suspect
that aid and happiness are likely both naturally born — at least
countries.”
& The researchers point
out that it is not surprising that there is a different effect in
countries other than theandbecause there are different attitudes
towards foreign aid. Some nations have smaller public parts others
donate at the institutional level and through private channels.
Nevertheless, public giving seems to bring greater happiness to a
nation as a whole as well as assisting those less
fortunate.
