But I think talking to someone helps a lot.
但我认为与某人沟通有很大的帮助。（建议积累） 小知识：关于简单的非谓语动词的概念（了解）
最开始学习英语时我们接触和使用的句子往往是名词或代词做句子主语。老师也一直提醒我们不要把动词写作句子的主语。因为以当时的知识水平去写一定是错误的。再到七年级下学期时慢慢接触了“it作形式主语”的用法。我们了解到确实动词做句子的主语在生活中也十分常见。当时唯一的可以将动词写为主语的套路就是“it作形式主语了”。
那么如今，我们要学习一种新的可以将动词用作主语的方式，即：动词ing形式作句子主语。它常常用于描述经常性的，习惯性动作，以动词的ing形式作句子主语。 说明1：是不是只有动词ing形式可以做句子主语？
答：不是，还有别的形式的动词可以做句子主语。目前不需要掌握。
说明2：以前所学的it作形式主语的目的正是为了避免以“动词ing形式作句子主语”为代表的动词作主语所带来的头重脚轻现
象才诞生的一种用法。
说明3：何时用it作形式主语，何时用动词ing形式作主语呢？ 答：在某些固定的用法中必须只能用it作形式主语，至于其他一些句子用it作形式主语或动词ing形式作句子主语都可以，不过对于头重脚轻现象明显的句子还是应该用it作形式主语的方式去表达的。同时是否用it作形式主语来表达也取决于句子含义的复杂程度。过于复杂的句子往往没办法通过it作形式主语表达清楚，此时就依然选择动词ing形式作句子主语。 e.g. Talking to people is difficult for me. = It is difficult for me to talk to people. e.g. Talking to people helps a lot. = It is helpful to talk to people. = It is a great help to talking to people.
e.g. Doing math homework can help me to learn math. Unless we talk to someone, we’ll certainly feel worse. 除非我们与某人交谈，不然我们当然会感到糟糕。 小知识：unless引导的真实条件句。
unless 连词，意为“除非···，如果不···”。可用于引导条件状语从句，其意为“除非···，不然···”，“如果不···，就···”。目前只要求掌握其引导的真实条件句，主从句时态规则与书写方式与if引导的真实条件句一致。
e.g. Unless you help me, I will never help you. 除非你帮我，不然我将再也不帮你。
e.g. Leave my home unless you help me. 如果不帮我的话就离开我家。
e.g. You can’t play the guitar well unless you practice it every day. 除非你每天练习吉他，不然你没法弹吉他弹得好。 Laura once lost her wallet, and worried for days. 劳拉曾经丢了她的钱包并且担心了好几天。 回忆：once n. 一次。
