六. 语法重点 (Grammar Focus)----- Attributive Clause (定语从句)
1. 请对比下面两个短语
a. a lovely girl 一个可爱的女孩 在这个短语中,lovely是形容词做定语来修饰名词girl.
b. a girl who likes purple 一个喜欢紫色的女孩 who likes purple 是一个句子来修饰名词girl,它的作用与lovely相同,都是做定语修饰名词girl,我们把它称为定语从句。
请注意,形容词做定语修饰名词,一般放在名词之前;而从句作定语修饰名词,则要放在名词之后。下面我们具体了解定语从句。
2. 在复合句中修饰名词或代词的从句叫做定语从句。被定语从句修饰的名词或代词叫做先行词。引导定语从句的词称为关系词,有关系代词和关系副词两类。在本单元中,我们只涉及到关系代词。
例如: I like music that I can dance to. 我喜欢可以随之跳舞的音乐。
music是先行词,that I can dance to 是定语从句修饰 music ,其中,that 是关系代词引导定语从句。
又如I prefer singers who can write their own songs. 我喜爱能自己写歌的歌星。
singers 是先行词,who can write their own songs是定语从句修饰singers, 其中,who是关系代词。
3. 结构比较
(1)人(n.)+ who +从句
比较:一位漂亮的女孩 a beautiful girl beautiful是形容词做定语
a girl who is beautiful 从句做定语 (girl是先行词)
(2)物(n.)+ that + 从句
比较:一本有趣的书 an interesting book 形容词做定语
a book that is interesting 从句做定语 (book是先行词)
4. 关系代词who / that的作用:
a. 做代词, 代替先行词
b. 在从句中担任句子成分:主语或宾语
c. 做连词, 把主句和从句连接起来
5. 成分比较
who hat在从句中可担任: 1.主语 2. 宾语
(1)I love singers who write their own songs.
who在从句中用作主语。
(2)He is the man who I met yesterday.
who在从句中用作宾语。
(3)I like music that I can dance to.
that在从句中用作宾语。
(4)I prefer a sandwich that is really delicious.
that在从句中用作主语。
6. who/that在定语从句中做主语时,谓语动词的单复数应与先行词保持一致.
e.g. I prefer shoes that are cool.
I like a sandwich that is really delicious.
I love singers who are beautiful.
I have a friend who plays sports.
7. 定语从句的关系词与其他从句的引导词的区别
试比较: I like music that I can dance to.
The music is great because you can dance to it
that 与because 的区别:that是定语从句的关联词,代替music在从句中做dance to 的宾语。而because是原因状语从句的引导词,只起到连词的作用,在句中不做成分。在dance to 后面加it 指代music.
七. 疑难解析 (Key points)
1. How to write a review of a book , a CD, or a movie 如何写书评或影评
A review should contain four parts:
(1) The name of the book, the CD or the movie 给出评论的对象。
(2) What you like and the reason 赞同之处及原因
(3) What you dislike and the reason不喜欢的地方和原因
(4) What it reminds you of 它使你产生了哪些回忆。
e.g. Recently I listened to a CD named Dance, Dance, Dance. { part 1 }

I like reading books that are interesting. My favorite book is “Harry Potter”. Harry Potter is a boy who is unusual. He can use magic. I think the story about Harry is exciting. J.K.Rowling is a great author who writes the Harry Potter. I like J.K.Rowling very much. But I think if I were her, I would write my books quickly, because a lot of people wait for the new stories about Harry Potter for a long time. Please be quick, Rowling!

I’m glad to hear from you. I went to Hong Kong when I was eleven. It’s a beautiful place. And people there speak Chinese and English. Also, I’d like to learn Chinese and English. Chinese is my mother tongue and English is important in our daily life.
You like quiet, traditional music. So do I. I love classical music, too. But I also like pop music. They often make me happy.
I like Italian food, because it’s delicious. But my favorite is Chinese food because it’s not only delicious but also good for our health.
I’ve never seen an Indian film. I think it might be interesting. I like action movies, because they’re exciting. How about you? Do you enjoy watching action movies?
Please write to me soon.
Yours,
Lucy

你的引信比别人长
陆勇强
(接上期)
人生就是这样,有的人一开始使锋芒毕露,让别人首先看到,得到重用和关注。而有些人在成长的道路上,往往会遭遇种种挫折,他的各个方面都很平庸,被别人轻视和看低。这很像一个爆竹,总有一个时候它会腾空而起,引信短的,它首先在空中炸响,而引信长的,则需要等待才能听到爆竹声。
引信长的爆竹,它在等待火种到来的时刻,往往让人难以发现它的热烈。但是,只要给它时间,你就会等到它给你带来的意外惊喜。
人生在世,你要相信自己是一个爆竹,如果你离成功尚远,那么请相信,你的引信比别人长。只要时间,只要努力,只要让生命不停地燃烧,你就会在空中炸出最响亮的声音。
