Fast 速度
Customers won't want to use the website if downloading the site is slower than with other sites.
# 译文 translation
如果网站的下载速度比其他网站慢,用户就不会使用这个网站。
Familiar 常客
A site which is more original than its competitors may look good, but in the end it will be more popular if it's similar to other websites and users know how it works and what it does.
# 译文 translation
一个比竞争对手更具原创性的网站可能看起来不错,但如果它与其他网站相似,并且用户知道它的工作原理和功能,最终它会更受欢迎。
语法(Grammar)
# In some of these sentences much is incorrect or unnatural. Change much to many or a lot(of) if necessary. Put "RIGHT" if the sentence is correct.
译文:在这些句子中,有些是不正确或不自然的。如有必要,可将much改为many或a lot of。如果句子正确,就用“RIGHT”。
a. We did't spend much money. RIGHT
b. Sue drinks much tea. a lot of
c. Jim always puts much salt on his food. a lot of
d. We'll have to hurry. We haven't got much time. RIGHT

1. 这里发现 lots of 和 a lot of 属于相同意思, a lot 不同表示“非常”,并长放于句尾 e.g. Thinks a lot
2. 不可数 (noncauntable) 一般用much lots of
3. 可数 (countable) 一般用 many a lot of
