2.Is this the museum they visited last week?

3.Is this farm you used to work?

A.where B.that C.in which D.the one

答案:1.D 2.B 3.A

句1,句2是定语从句。句1中的the one是先行词,后面省略了关系代词that;句2中的关系代词that在定语从句中作visited的宾语,此句还可以用which或者是省略关系代词。句3中的where引导的是一个表语从句。

点拨:as在这里是连词,引导一个方式状语从句。 请看以下由as 引导的方式状语从句的例子:

e.g.1.You’d better do as I did.

你最好按照我做的去做。

e.g.2.As what she said before,it was really difficult to persuade him to go with us.

正如她过去所说的,说服他和我们一块走是一件很困难的事情。

作为连词,as还可以引导时间状语从句。

e.g.1.Twelve days later,millions more Indians lined the railway tracks as a slow train took the jar containing his ashes 584 kilometers to a place by the river.

十二天后,当一列慢车将盛有甘地骨灰的坛子驶向584千米外,靠近恒河的一个地方时,又有数百万人排列在铁路两旁,夹道送行。

e.g.2.Three million people watched as the ashes of this great man were gently poured into the brown waters of the river that would carry them to the ocean.

还有300万人守望着这位伟人的骨灰缓缓撒入褐色的恒河,河水把他的骨灰送向大海。

辨析:as,when 和while

这三个连词都可以连接时间状语从句,但有差别:如果主句和从句的时间相同,以选用as较宜,表示随着……;而when只有一般时间意义,还可以表示at that time的含义;while是个连词,它所表达的时间通常是指整个一段时间或过程,相当于during which time的用法。从句中常常使用进行时,还可以表示主从句的对比。

e.g.1.They came up stair as we went down.他们上楼,我们下楼。

e.g.2.As one grows older,one becomes more experienced.

人长大了,经验就更丰富了。

e.g.3.When one man is in difficulty,the thousands come to his aid.

e.g.5.We were watching TV while they were playing chess.

我们在看电视,而他们在下棋。

作为连词,as还可以引导比较状语从句,表示以下含义。

1.表示“(用于比较)与……一样”的意思。

e.g.1.She works in the same building as my sister.

她和我的妹妹在同一栋大楼上班。

e.g.2.This is the same as it was before.这个与以前一样。

2.表示“诸如”的意思。

e.g.such animals as cats and dogs 诸如猫、狗之类的动物

作为连词,as还可以引导原因状语从句。

e.g.As the weather is fine,let’s go fishing.

既然天气变得好起来了,咱们去钓鱼吧。

辨析:because,since,as 和for

because,since,as引导原因状语从句:

because 引导的从句表示直接的、根本的原因,用来回答why 提出的问题,为全句重心所在。since引导的从句表示显然的或已知的理由、原因,相当于汉语的“既然”。主句是全句意思的重心,从句次之。as 引导原因状语从句,与since没多大区别。它们引导的原因状语从句,其原因已很明显,不必加以强调。由as表示的原因,语气最弱,往往译成汉语的“由于”。

for 是个并列连词,引导并列句,是对前句内容的补充说明。

as还可以用作关系代词,其含义是“正如”请看以下例子。

e.g.As you know,we have the right to vote.正如你知道的,我们有权选举。

辨析:as和which

首先,这两个词意义不同。前者表示正如,后者没有意义,只起连接作用。

其次,前者构成的从句既可以前置又可以后置,而由后者构成的从句则只能后置,不能前置。

再次,当从句中有the same,such,so 时,只能用as。

比较:It is no use arguing with them,as we all see.和他们争论是没有用的,正如我们所看到的。(既可后置)

As we all see,it is no use arguing with them.(又可前置)正如我们都看到的,和他们争论是没有用的。

It is no use arguing with them,which we all see.

我们都看到了,和他们争论是没有用的。(只能后置)

as还可以用作介词,其含义是“作为”。指处于某种状态、性质、情况、工作等之中。请看以下例子。

e.g.1.He works as a driver.他以开汽车为业。

e.g.2.The kitten uses that box as a bed.小猫把那盒子当作床。

辨析:as和like

当作介词的时候,as只用于以下情况:

1.用作“作为”讲的时候。

2.用来举例,比如用来代替for example的时候;

3.用来引导某些动词,如:look upon,regard,consider,treat,think of等的宾语的补语的时候。

e.g.1.As a writer,he has no equal.作为一个作家,他是首屈一指的。

e.g.2.Languages(such)as English,German,Dutch belong to the same family.

像英语、德语、荷兰语等语言都属于同一个语系。

e.g.3.The teacher considered your son as being too small.

老师认为你的儿子太小了。

比较:The prisoner was hanged like a murderer.这个囚徒像杀人犯那样被处以绞刑(=…as if he were a murderer)。

e.g.4.The prisoner was hanged as a murderer.这个犯人作为杀人犯被处以绞刑。(这个犯人就是杀人犯)

Reading

He was buried on his left side with his face to the north.

被埋葬时,他侧身向左,脸朝北。

点拨:with his face to the north是一个with的复合结构,它由with+名词 his face+介词短语to the north 构成。with的复合结构的构成是with+名词+现在分词(或者是过去分词、介词短语、形容词以及副词等)。其中,现在分词(或者是过去分词、介词短语、形容词以及副词等)与名词有密切的关系,表示动作或者是情况,是宾语的补足语。这种复合结构在句子中作定语或者是状语。当它作状语的时候,可以表示伴随情况或者是原因。

with的复合结构作定语:

e.g.1.My aunt lives in the room with the window facing south.

点拨:本句中出现了一个含有it的主语从句。在含有it的主语从句中,it是形式主语,that后面的从句是真正的主语。其结构为:It+is+形容词/过去分词+that从句。that不能够省略。

e.g.1.It’s said that he had been dismissed.据说他已经被解雇了。

e.g.2.It’s believed that they can finish the task ahead of time.

人们相信他们能够提前完成这项任务。

e.g.3.It is clear/obvious that he doesn’t like to be laughed at.

A.That B.As C.It D.Which

答案:1.B 2.C

Some of the objects found in the grave give us an idea of how he was dressed when he was buried.

墓穴里发现的部分物品让我们对于他当时的穿着有了一个了解。

靠近他的头部有两个由黏土制成的罐,还有造箭所需要用的工具和材料,以及用于打猎的弓和箭,还另有一个铜制的较小的刀子。

点拨:本句是倒装句。正常的语序应该是:Two pots made of clay,tools and materials to make arrows,a bow and arrows for hunting and a second,smaller copper knife were close to his head.类似的倒装句还有:
