不加动词和没加动词有什么不一样？不可以加动词，可以加是，还可以加形容词（adjective）,但是，没只有加动词和形容词两个，不可以加是，不能说没是。
我们今天只看不加动词和没加动词。不加动词是说现在和将来now and future，没加动词是说以前、过去，是past.
我们看两个句子：
1. 今年我没去旅游。
2.今年我不去旅游。
现在是十二月，今年已经过去了，我可能说“今年我没去旅游。”
现在是一月，今年才刚刚开始，我可能说“我没有钱，今年我不去旅游。”
再看两个句子：
3.我太太今天没来学校。
4.我太太今天不来学校。
你的同事看见你，问你，你太太在办公室吗？我要给她一个东西。这时候你说“我太太今天没来学校。”她没来，所以她不在学校，也不在办公室。
你的同事看见你，问你，你太太几点来学校？你说“我太太今天不来学校。”你太太今天没有课，她不来，她现在不来，十二点不来，下午也不来。
好，现在你是不是明白不加动词和没加动词有什么不一样了，我们来做一些练习试试吧。

Episode 8: A First Visit to a Fish and Chip Shop

The European Union (EU) has encouraged citizens across the continent to stockpile food, water and other essentials to last at least 72 hours as war, cyberattacks, climate change and disease increase the chances of a crisis.

The call to action for the EU's 450 million citizens comes as the 27-nation bloc rethinks its security, especially after Donald Trump's US administration warned that Europe must take more responsibility for it.

In recent years, the EU has been forced to deal with the coronavirus pandemic, and the threat from Russia, including its attempts to exploit Europe's dependence on its natural gas to weaken support for Ukraine.

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has warned that Russia could be capable of launching another attack in Europe by 2030.

"Today's threats facing Europe are more complex than ever, and they are all interconnected," said Preparedness and Crisis Management Commissioner Hadja Lahbib as she shared a new strategy for dealing with future disasters.

While the commission is keen not to be seen as alarmist, Lahbib said it's important "to make sure people have essential supplies for at least 72 hours in a crisis." She listed food, water, flashlights, ID papers, medicine and radios as things to stock.

Lahbib said the EU should build up a "strategic reserve" and stockpile other critical resources including firefighting planes; medical, energy and transport equipment; and specialized assets against chemical, biological and nuclear threats.

The EU's plans are similar to those in France, Finland and Sweden.

Last year, Sweden updated its civil emergency advice "to better reflect today's security policy reality" such as what to do in case of nuclear attack.

Not all EU countries have the same level of crisis preparedness, and the commission also wants to encourage them to coordinate better in case of emergency.

President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said: "New realities require a new level of preparedness in Europe."
