单词解析：
1、用法：
n. (名词)
1）matter的基本含义是指与精神相对的“物质,物体”,泛指构成客观物体或宇宙的所有物质,在物理学上指由很少的几种基本粒子构成的物质,在哲学上则指与意识相对的物质,是不可数名词,表静态概念。
2）matter也可指思想或表达的“题材”,书籍、演说等的“内容”,与“形式”相对,是不可数名词。
3）matter也可作“事情”解,有时可转化为“问题”解。
the matter指“麻烦事,困难,毛病”,在句中可用作表语或后置定语,常用在what, something, anything或nothing后。
复数形式matters意为“情形,事态”,而不是“多件事”。
4）matter还可作“重要性”解,为不可数名词,有时也可作“原因”“理由”解。
5）(in) a matter of还可与表示时间、距离、金钱的词连用,意为“…左右,…上下”,有“很少”的意味。
2、辨析：
n. (名词)
in a matter of, in the matter of
两者不容混淆:in a matter of的意思是“只消,不过”; 而in the matter of的意思是“关于,对于”。例如:
1）You can finish the course in a matter of weeks.你只消几周就能学完这门课程。
2）Jimmy has a name in the matter of enthusiasm in work.吉米的工作干劲是有名的。
