  第二课时

  I.非限制性定语从句的使用场合

  1)先行词为独一无二的物体时

  The sun, which rises in the east, gives us light and heat.

  太阳从东边升起,给我们光和热

  2)先行词是指物的专有名词时

  The Great Wall, which is called in Chinese “The Ten-Thousand Li Great Wall.”, is actually more than 6,000 kilometers.

  长城,中国人称作“万里长城“实际有6000多公里

  3)先行词指物而且被指示代词或人称代词修饰时

  这是他的房子,去年建的。

  4)定语从句修饰整个主句时

  He is from America, which I know from his accent.

  他是美国人,这一点我是从他的口音的。

  II.非限制性定语从句引导词的选择

  关系代词的选择

  非限制性定语从句的关系代词不能用that。指人时,如果引导词作主语,用who; 作宾语用whom,指物时,用which。引导词作宾语也不能省略

  Mr.Zhang, who came to see me yesterday, is an old friend of my father’s.

  张先生昨天来看我,他是我父亲的一位好朋友

  豪小姐是美国人,你在车站见过她

  The Great Wall of China, which was built by Chinese ancient people, is regarded as one of the few wonders of the world.

  长城是中国古代人民修建的,它被看作是世界上少有的奇迹之一

  【拓展延伸】as 和which 的选择

  s 和which都可以引导非限制性定语从句,指代整个主句的内容。非限制性定语从句位于句末,且as 和which 在从句中作主语、宾语或表语时,两者可以互换

  She failed in the exam, which/as was natural.

  她考试没及格,这很自然

  He is an honest boy, which/as anybody can see.

  任何人都看得出来,他是一个诚实的人

  The man seemed a German, which/as in fact he was.

  那个人看似一个德国人,实际上他就是一个德国人

  【点拨】注意事项:

  ①如果非限制性定语从句位于主句之前,或插在主句之中时,只能用as。

  As we have seen, oceans cover more than 70percent of the earth.

  我们已经看到,海洋占地球面积的70%多

  This kind of computer, as is well known, is out of date.

  众所周知,这种计算机已经过时了

  ②as 在从句中作主语,后面常跟行为动词的被动式,which 在从句中作主语,后常跟行为动词的主动式

  She has been late again, as was expected.

  他又迟到了,这在预料之中

  It rained hard yesterday, which prevented me from going to the park.

  昨天雨下得很大,我无法去公园

  Kate always tells a lie, which her parents find strange.

  凯特总是说谎,这让她父母感到奇怪

  ③当从句和主句语义一致时,用as 反之用which。

  The thief came again, as was expected.

  小偷又一次来了,这是预料之中的

  The elephant is like a snake, which is not right.

  大象像一条蛇,这是不对的

  ④.as 常用在as often happens, as was pointed out, as was said above, as I remember, as I understand 等结构中

  Jack has won the first prize, as often happens.

  像往常一样,杰克获得了一等奖

  (3)关系代词和关系副词的选择

  在非限制性定语从句中,关系代词或关系副词的选择方法和限制性定语从句中一样,引导词在从句中作主语或宾语时,用关系代词;作状语时,用关系副词

  I want to buy the house, which has a garden.

  我想买那所带花园的房子

  The place, which I visited before, has changed greatly.

  这个地方我以前来过,现在变化很大

  The story in the book takes place in Canada, where Doctor Bethune was born.

  书中的故事发生在加拿大,白求恩就是在那里诞生的

  (4)关系副词和人称代词、指示代词的选择

  选关系代词,还是指示代词,关键是要分清句子结构,如果是非限制性定语从句,用关系代词;如果是并列句,用人称代词或指示代词

  a. He has three sons, none of ___ whom __is a doctor.

  他有三个儿子,没有一个是医生。

  A

  I don’t think there is anything wrong with your blood. The key to your problem is that long nap after dinner. If you didn’t sleep for hours during the early part of the evening, you would be more ready to sleep at bedtime. If you didn’t nap after dinner, you would not want to stay up so late, and you would not feel the need to take a sleeping pill. The pill is still working in your system when you get up in the morning. This helps account for the fact that you feel tired all day.

  You should get out of the habit of sleeping during the evening. Right after your evening meal, engage in some sort of physical activity-a sport such as bowling, perhaps. Or get together with friends for an evening of cards and conversation. Then go to bed at your usual time or a little earlier, and you should be able to get a good night’s rest without taking a pill.

  If you can get into the habit of spending your evenings this way, I am sure you will feel less tired during the day. At first it may be hard for you to go to sleep without taking a pill. If so, get up and watch television or do some jobs around your house until you feel sleepy. If you fall asleep and then wake up a few hours later, get up but do not take a sleeping pill. Read a while or listen to the radio, and make yourself a few hours’ sleep that night, you will feel better in the morning than you usually feel after taking a pill. The next night you will be ready to sleep at an earlier hour.

  The most important thing is to avoid taking that nap right after dinner and avoid taking pills.

  The most common form of public transportation is the buses. They provide transportation service on innumerable routes from the city center to the suburbs and even to outlying rural areas that surround the city. Also, special buses can be chartered for trips to the mountains, to lakes, and to nearby places of historical interest. In some cities, the city bus system offers free “mini-bus” service as a convenience to shoppers in the downtown business district.

  Subways are mostly found in larger cities, such as New York, London, Tokyo, Paris and so on. The subway is an underground system of high-speed trains. The world’s first system was built in London, and trains have been operating there since 1890. Subway trains move more quickly and efficiently than buses. They, too, are inexpensive and help solve city traffic problems. The one drawback of subway trains is that they are often crowded and noisy.

  Taxicabs are more expensive than buses or subways, but they will deliver you to the exact location you want in the shortest time possibly. Taxis are convenient if you are in a hurry or if you are taking a number of suitcases or packages.

  If you ever visit a major city in another country, you will probably have no trouble getting around. You will quickly find out about city bus routes and schedules, about crowds on subway trains, and about the scarcity of taxis when you are trying to find one during rush hours. Like many people, of course, you may come to the conclusion that the most inexpensive and reliable form of transportation will be your own two legs!

  61. What is the common form of public transportation?

  Bicycles and horses.

  Taxicabs and horses.

  Subways, taxi and busses.

  High-speed trains underground and suburbs.

  62. Why do people like to take busses?

  Because busses run faster than the others.

  Because busses cost much more than the others.

  Because the others are not safe.

  Because busses are the cheapest of all these.

  63. What does “mini-bus” mean?

  It means that a kind of bus only runs in the mid-night.

  It is another name of the bus.

  It means that this kind of bus is very small.

  It means that this is a special kind of bus for shoppers to carry goods.

  64. The subway is a kind of high-speed train underground ___________

  that runs only on the suburb routes.

  that was first used in London, New York and Tokyo.

  and is mostly being operated in some big cities.

  Both A and B.

  65. Which of the following is true according to the above?

  The public transportation is only for the rich.

  Subway was used earlier than buses.

  Taxicab is free.

  In the big crowded cities, you’ll find your own two legs will be the cheapest and the most reliable form of transportation.

  There were two McDonalds-Mac and Dick -and they were brothers. In 1948 they owned a restaurant in California. They liked working in the restaurant, but they got tired of the customers ordering so many different things to eat.

  “If we gave customers a smaller menu, we could make some of the food before they came, and they wouldn’t have to wait so long for their meals,” said one of the brothers. The other brother agreed and said, “And if we made the customers come to the counter, we wouldn’t need any waiters or waitresses. We could also use plastic plates so there wouldn’t be any washing-up.”

  These were such good ideas that McDonald brothers used them, and the customers were very pleased. They got their meals very quickly – in less than a minute – and they paid only 15 cents for hamburgers and 10 cents for fries. The first McDonald’s restaurant had no seats for customers to sit on. This meant that people had to take their food away, and that no one had to clean up any tables after them.

  Then a man called Ray Kroc came to the brothers and asked to buy their business. They agreed to sell it to him for $27 million. After that, people paid Ray Kroc to open their own restaurants using the McDonald’s name and menu. Before long, there were McDonald’s restaurants all over the United States, and nowadays, they are all over the world-even in China and Russia. The most successful McDonald’s business is in Hong Kong of China. The Hong Kong McDonald’s sells more hamburgers every day than any other McDonald’s anywhere else in the world.

  McDonald’s restaurants are so successful because children love going to them. They like the food, and they like the toys and games they can get at McDonald’s.
