句型梳理
1【教材原句】 The_only_time_that life sentences should be given is when a person is so dangerous that the community is at risk if he or she is let out of prison.(P40)
判无期徒刑(或终身监禁)的惟一条件是：罪犯十分危险，一旦被释放出狱，周围的人们就要遭殃。
【句法分析】 本句中划线词that为关系副词，引导定语从句，修饰先行词the only time，相当于when。在引导定语从句时，关系副词表示时间、地点、原因和方式，有时可以用that来替换，that也可以省去。
①The way that(in which) he explained the sentence to us was not difficult to understand.他向我们解释句子的那种方法不难理解。(在从句中作方式状语)
②Can you tell me the place that(where) they work?
你能告诉我他们干活的地方吗？(在从句中作地点状语)
③Do you still remember the days that(when)we spent the summer holidays in Qingdao?
你还记得我们在青岛过暑假的日子吗？(在从句中作时间状语)
13．(2010年淮安模拟)It’s not ________ books you read but the way ________you read them that decides how successfully you gain knowledge.
A．the number of；/
B．a number of；in which
C．a good many；which
D．quite a few；in which
解析：选A。句意：是你所读书籍的方式而不是数量决定你所成功地获取知识的多少。the number of sth.……的数量。这是一个强调句型，而the way后面又跟了一个定语从句you read them，此定语从句前省略了关系词that或in which。
2【教材原句】 Not increased happiness，but stress and less free time to be ourselves and enjoy being with our friends and families.(P34)
(结果)不是更快乐了，而是压力(增加了)，独处和享受与朋友、家人共处的自由支配时间更少了。
【句法分析】 not...but...“不是……而是……”，表示取舍关系，常连接主语、表语和宾语。
not only...but also...“不但……而且……”，表示递进关系，常连接两个并列的主语、谓语、状语和并列句。
①(朗文P1024)Shakespeare was not only a writer but (also) an actor.
莎士比亚不但是作家，而且还是演员。
②(朗文P186)They own not one but three houses!
他们不是拥有一幢，而是三幢房屋！
【温馨提示】 若not...but...，not only...but also...连接两个主语，谓语动词应与就近的名词、代词保持人称、数的一致。如：
③Not you but your father is to blame.
不是你，而是你父亲该受责备。
④Not only you but also he is wrong.
不仅你错了，他也错了。
14．Not his sister but his two cousins________to Hainan, never to be seen again.
A．has gone B．have gone
C．has been
D．have been
解析：选B。考查连词词组not...but...用法。not...but...连接主语时，谓语动词的单复数应与就近的主语保持一致，故本题谓语动词应与his two cousins保持一致，又因have gone to 表示“去了某地”，而have been to 表示“去过某地”。句意：不是他的姐姐而是他的两个堂兄弟去了海南，再也没有见到过他们。根据句意可知应用have gone to，故选B项。
15．Not only I but also Jane and Mary________tired of having one examination after another.
A．is
B．are
C．am
D．has been
解析：选B。本题考查not only...but also...的用法。句意：不但我而且简和玛丽都厌烦了一次又一次的考试。根据not only...but also 连接两个主语时的就近原则，谓语动词应与Jane and Mary 保持一致，故用复数，所以选B项。
作文指导
开放式作文
【体裁导航】
开放式作文一般不提供具体的情景，也没有固定的模式限制，但其体裁和字数仍然要受制于所提供的内容。
做此类题型的作文时，审题非常关键。还要根据所判定的体裁，打开思路，发挥想象，不要过多地顾忌是否犯了语法错误，或者表述是否清楚，而要尽快找出能合理表述文章内容的词句，一气呵成，完成作文。
一般说来，开放类作文，要求的字数比较少，所以我们在文章的结构上必须注意“集中火力”，突出重点，直奔主题，而不要随便发挥。
这样，完成了表述以后，就进入了修改阶段。看语法结构，看语言表达，看单词拼写，看标点符号，甚至看字母的大小写。总之，好文章都是经过反复修改而成的。
【写作示例】
在竞争激烈的当今社会，人们十分强调个人能力，但是我们也不能忽视相互合作(cooperation)的重要性。请举例说明相互合作的重要性。
要求：词数120左右。
【写作要领】
本题为开放式作文，要求举例说明相互合作的重要性。首先应该阐明自己赞成合作的观点，然后，举例说明。举例后的重点应该在于说明合作的重要性上。最后一段要进行总结，以达到前后的呼应。
【金点模板】
①People’s view on________.②In my opinion，________.
③Just take________.④The success________.⑤So cooperation________.
⑥I doubt whether________.⑦No matter________.⑧At the same time，________.⑨So cooperation________.⑩All in all，________.
【范文点评】
My View on Cooperation
①People’s view on cooperation varies from individual to individual.In my opinion，cooperation to society is what air is to man.
②Just take the 2008 Nobel Chemistry Prize as an example.The success relies on the efforts of all the three scientists.③So cooperation plays a very important role in the fields of scientific research.
④I doubt whether personal efforts are enough to deal with the ever increasing challenges. ⑤No matter how great a person is, he or she cannot accomplish everything within his or her own strength. At the same time, everyone has their shortcomings. So cooperation is needed as far as the fact is concerned.
⑥All in all, as the saying goes “All roads lead to Rome” I think all rightful attempts to succeed lead to the improvement of men’s living and working standard.
①开门见山，点明主题，提出个人观点。
②举例说明合作的重要性，富有说服力。
③据上例得出结论。
④进一步说明合作的重要性，阐明个人的能力再强大也需要合作。
⑤no matter引导的让步状语从句增强了感染力。
⑥最后给与总结，呼应开头，前后得到了很好的照应。
【类题尝试】
(2011年陕西宝鸡教学质检)诚信是处世之本。但是在中学生当中，考试作弊、抄袭作业、欺骗家长和老师等现象屡见不鲜。请你对以上种种现象作简要描述，并以“How to guarantee honesty”为题，从三个方面谈谈如何保证学生做到诚信。
注意：1.词数不少于100；
2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。
How to guarantee honesty
As we all know，honesty is always an essential principle of living.Much to our regret，however，________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
Honesty is the best policy，which is what we should keep in mind all the time.
One possible version：
How to guarantee honesty
As_we_all_know，honesty_is_always_an_essential_principle_of_living.Much_to_our_regret，however，it is nothing new that some middle school students cheat in exams，copy others’ homework and fool their teachers and parents.Therefore，how to guarantee honesty should come to our attention.
Personally，I think honesty education is necessary.For instance，courses on honesty can be offered to students；activities like storytelling and lectures are also worth trying.With the concept of “being honest” rooted in their minds，honesty can be reflected in their daily life and study.
Besides，related rules and regulations should be laid down.Detailed criteria should be applied to evaluate students in aspects such as homework，tests，relationship with teachers and parents.
Then，strict measures should be carried out to punish those who cheat，and consequently，they must assume responsibility for their bad behavior，thus considerably reducing chances of cheating next time.
