- Hi Liz, B is the best way to say this. "I need to take a rest." Need always must have the word "to" after it, if what the person needs is *to do* something. If what the person needs is a thing like *food* You can say "I need food". By the way need is technically not a modal verb. Anyways I'll give you an example. If someone is hungry they can say; "I need to eat." OR "I need food." In the same way, you can say "I need to rest" or " I need rest" Feel free to message me any with any other questions0 votedMay 11, 20200
- This phrase is an allusion 典故 it is like the idea of tackling someone at the knees... like many other english allusion we use an image to tell a story. imagine someone getting tackled at the knees. they would likely fall and get hurt. this is the essence of the phrase. to do irreparable damage, that starts from a weak joint. feel free to direct message me if you have other questions0 votedSeptember 10, 20190
- There is no difference. As you keep learning you will see how the writers choose the different phrases to express there own style. Btw "for the love of god" is a common phrase people use when they are very frustrated. Example: Tony's mom sees he still hasnt cleaned his room. Upset, she yells, "for the love of God Tony, I told you to clean your room two hours ago" Be careful when you use this though. This is technically a curse word that has the name of religious figure in it, some people might get really mad id you use it.0 votedSeptember 7, 20190
