Usage Tip

两篇文章中两个动词的用法:
1) These informers may be employees of stores or restaurants frequented by celebrities.
这里的frequent不做形容词(频繁的)意思解,而是做动词,意为“经常光顾”。上句中frequented by celebrities 是动词过去分词短语做定语，修饰前面的restaurants，即“名人们经常光顾的餐厅”。

2) When a photographer gets a great photo, all the difficulties no longer matter.
matter做动词的意思是“要紧，有关系”。上句的意思是：当一个摄影师得到一张很棒的照片，所有的困难都无关紧要。
