25、 can be used in many different ways and in many different expressions. One such example is the word matter.In fact，matter can mean just about anything.It could be one of the most useful words in the English language. Lets get to the heart of the “matter”a matter of principle. If someone says that yo

29、he or she does not care.And it sounds rude. But saying，“Oh，you pick where we eat dinner.It doesnt matter to me.” does not sound rude.In this situation，“It doesnt matter.” shows you are easygoing. No matter how you look at it and what you say，“matter” is a very useful word.And its only a matter of ti
