　　「超級單詞」whenever無論何時, 隨時n.只要，

　　11. even though some people object to/are against it openly

　　14. you can't praise him enough

　　「超級句型」用在"主語+cannot……+enough"句型中該句型形式上是否定句型，實際上表達的是肯定意義，意思是"再……也不過分;越……越……".

　　15. nothing is more attractive to me than reading

　　「超級短語」"Nothing is more……than"和"Nothing is so……as"都具有最高級比較的意思，指"沒有……比……更……".
