A simple statement tells about one thing. Each statement contains one idea. Each simple statement can be composed of 6 or less parts. The sequence of the 6 parts is very important, especially in translation. Good translation results from good understanding of original English or Chinese sentences. A good mastery of sequence of statement parts can help you greatly in understanding and writing English sentences. The sequence is as follows: 1 subject, 2 predicate (or linking verb or copula). 3 object (or predicative), 4 adverbial of manner, 5 adverbial of place, 6 adverbial of time. Adverbial of time can be put before subject. 简单陈述句的语序： 陈述句用来叙述一件事情。每个句子包含一个概论。陈述句的语序很重要。每个陈述句可以有6个成分组成，但并不是每个句子都有这么多的成分。语序如下： 1 主语，2 谓语（或系动词），3 宾语（或表语），4 方式状语，5 地点状语，6 时间状语；时间状语6可以放在主语之前。 Arrange the words in each sentences in correct sequence and translate them into Chinese: 1.
