注意双引号的使用http://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201211/201211190928344013757.mp3Thank you for asking about the uses of "almost", which is an adverb that means "nearly", not "completely" or "not quite".
As it is an adverb, we use it to modify a verb, and we usually place it before the verb. For example, I almost finished the exam, but in the end I ran out of time. However, if the verb is "to be", you put "almost" after it. For example, It is almost 9 o'clock.
Secondly, we use "almost" with adjectives, such as I'm almost ready to leave. He is almost certain to be late.
We also use almost with words like every, all, nothing, and no one. This is an area that often confuses students of English so pay attention to these examples.
Almost everyone uses the Internet these days.
I buy a newspaper almost every day.
Almost all of the students passed the exam.
I was disappointed because almost no one came to my art exhibition.
There's almost nothing in the fridge so I'd better go shopping.谢谢你提出有关“almost”的用法，这是一个副词，意思是“几乎”“差不多”“不十分”。
作为一个副词，我们通常用来修饰一个动词，而且会放在动词的前面。例如，我差不多完成我的考试，但最后我还是超时了。然而，如果动词是“to be"，你要把“almost"放在to be的后边，例如，现在差不多9点了。
第二，我们把“almost”和形容词放在一起使用，例如我差不多准备离开了。他差点迟到了。
我们也用almost和every, all, nothing, no one连用。这个用法通常都会使学生困惑，所以仔细听听以下的例子。
现在，几乎每个人都使用因特网。
我几乎每天都买报纸。
几乎所有的学生都通过了考试。
我非常失望，因为几乎没人来我的美术展览。
冰箱几乎没有东西了，所以我最好去逛街买东西。
