Section Ⅲ Using language & Writing定语从句(3)当关系代词在定语从句中作介词的宾语时,我们通常用“介词+关系代词”引导定语从句。如果指“人” ,用“介词+whom” ;如果指“物” ,用“介词+which” 。(1) 在介词后作宾语的关系代词一般只能用 which 和 whom,不用 that 和 who。(2) 但是当介词放在后面时,在限制性定语从句中,可用 that 代替 which/whom,并且that 可省略。(3) 在定语从句中,有一些含介词的动词短语不可拆开使用(短语拆开后含义发生变化),如 look after, look for 等。◆The babies whom the nurses are looking after are very healthy.(正)◆The babies after whom the nurses are looking are very healthy.(误)关系代词前介词选择的原则1.根据定语从句中的谓语动词或形容词和介词的搭配关系选择◆Yesterday we visited the West Lake for which Hangzhou is famous.昨天我们参观了西湖,杭州因其而出名。2.根据定语从句中介词与先行词的搭配关系选择◆The old woman with whom you talked just now is a famous artist.刚才和你们说话的老太太是一个著名的艺术家。3.根据句子的意思来选择◆My computer,without which I can’t surf the Internet,broke down yesterday.昨天我的电脑坏了,没有它我不能网上冲浪。“介词+关系代词”的几种常见结构1. “介词+which”在定语从句中分别可作时间、地点和原因状语,代替相应的关系副词 when, where 和 why。◆I’ll never forget the day on which(=when) she said goodbye to me. 我永远不会忘记她与我们告别的那一天。◆The house in which(=where)we live is not large.我们住的房子不是很大。◆This is the reason for which(=why) he was put in prison. 这就是他坐牢的原因。2. “代词/数词+of+which/whom”引导非限制性定语从句这个结构中,代词常常为 all, each, one, many, much, most, some, none, both 等,“代词+of+which/whom”通常在定语从句中作主语,说明整体中的一部分。有时候也可把“of+which/whom”置于代词或数词前。◆I have ten books, half of which were written by Mo Yan.我有 10 本书,其中一半是莫言写的。◆The old man has two sons,both of whom are lawyers.这位老人有两个儿子,两个儿子都是律师。3. “the+名词+of which/whom”引导非限制性定语从句这个结构中,of which/whom 充当定语,修饰前面的名词,整个结构相当于“whose+名词”引导的定语从句。◆I saw some trees, the leaves of which(=whose leaves ) were yellow with disease. 我看见一些树,它们的叶子因害病而发黄。◆On the blackboard the teacher wrote a sentence, the meaning of which(=whose meaning ) I don’t understand. 老师在黑板上写了一个句子,句子的意思我不明白。4. “the+形容词比较级(最高级)+of+which/whom”引导非限制性定语从句◆There are two buildings, the larger of which stands nearly a hundred feet height.这儿有两座建筑物,较大的那座几乎有 100 英尺高。单句语法填空Ⅰ1.Maria has written two novels, both of which have been made into television series.2.The girl to whom you talked just now is our English teacher.3.Recently I bought an ancient Chinese vase, the price of which was very reasonable.4.The woman with whom you shook hands just now is head of our company.5.(2019·江苏泰州一中期中)The death of his son was an experience from which he never fully recovered.6.She is a teacher of much knowledge, from whom much can be learned.7.(天津卷)English is a language shared by several diverse(不同的) cultures, each of which uses it differently.8.This is the student for whom I bought the book.9.She brought with her three friends, none of whom I had ever met before.10.The Second World War during which millions of people were killed ended in 1945.语法与写作Ⅱ1.毕业以后,他回到那个他长大的小镇上。After graduation he returned to the small town where/in which he grew up.2.我不喜欢你跟你父母讲话的方式。I don’t like the way (that/in which) you speak to your parents.3.我们在学生中进行了一次调查,78%的学生投票支持 Lee 来当班长。We made a survey among the students, 78% of whom voted Lee their monitor.4.我永远不会忘记她与我第一次见面的那一天。I’ll never forget the day on which/ when she met me for the first time.5.据报道,在我的家乡正在建的两所学校将在明年投入使用。It is reported that two schools, both of which are being built in my hometown, will open next year.介绍一个地方文体感知介绍一个地方属于说明文的范畴,写此类文章需注意以下几个方面:1.内容:一般包括该地区的地理位置、地貌特征、历史文化、风土人情等,也可以描述该地区的发展变化。2.结构:写作时可分为三部分。开头部分对该地区进行简单概括;主体部分详细介绍其特点;结尾部分对该地区进行总体评价。3.时态:如果对该地区进行一些客观描写及主观发挥,一般以现在时为主;如果对比过去则用过去时;展望未来则可以用将来时。增分佳句1.段首常用语:(1)Located in.it covers an area of.with a population of.(2)The beauty of.is in the east of.(3)I’d like to introduce my hometown to you.2.介绍一个地区的常用语:(1)I would like to introduce.(2)It’s a beautiful city/place of.It faces the sea.(3)The place is located in.covering an area of./covering.square metres.(4)There are a variety of attractions such as.(5).is famous/wellknown for.(6)In addition, there are.with a history/population of. 3.段尾常用语:(1)If you want to have fun and more than fun, do come to.(2)It attracts millions of visitors all over the world.(3)You are sure to have a good time here.(4)That’s all, thank you.

I could get the latest information about my friends through it. However, after using it for some time, I found something very disappointing.It started about half a year ago. One day, while I was reading something that my friend Lisa posted, I found she was lying. She said she had won the first prize in a contest (竞赛). But the truth was that she only got the third prize. After she posted that on Facebook, many people said how great she was. I said nothing. I just felt disappointed.But that was not the end of the story. Some days later, I found she told lies again. And her lies went on and on. She kept posting something she hadn’t done, such as buying an expensive gift for her mother, helping a stranger, keeping a homeless dog, and so on. And even worse, others followed her example. I knew why they did that. They felt envy (忌妒) of Lisa.You may find it funny. But in fact Facebook envy is nothing to laugh about. Researchers found that those who envy others on Facebook are more likely to suffer from depression (抑郁症).In my opinion, Facebook should just be used to talk with friends and families. We shouldn’t lie to others just in order to make others think we’re great. If we lie, others will lie, too. And in the end, everyone will lie on Facebook. So tell the truth on Facebook. It can help others really know about you.【解题导语】 作者发现她的朋友 Lisa 经常在 Facebook 上撒谎,她对此感到很失望。更糟的是,很多人因为妒忌 Lisa 也开始撒谎。所以作者建议人们在 Facebook 上实话实说。1.After the author started using Facebook, she ________.A.often lied on itB.found it helpful at firstC.made a lot of friends on itD.found it disappointing at onceB 解析:细节理解题。根据文章第一段的内容可知,当作者一开始使用 Facebook 时,她能通过 Facebook 获得好友的信息,这让作者觉得 Facebook 很有用。2.What made the author disappointed?A.Feeling envy of Lisa.B.Not getting the first prize.C.Lisa’s lying about herself.D.Having nothing great to post.C 解析:细节理解题。根据文章第二段的内容可知,不久作者发现她的好友 Lisa 在Facebook 上撒谎,这让作者很失望。3.By saying“others followed her example”, the author means others ________.A.did something great tooB.started to use FacebookC.started to envy LisaD.started telling lies on FacebookD 解析:推理判断题。根据文章第三段的内容可知,Lisa 的谎言越来越多,多数都是在炫耀自己,而她的炫耀导致了更糟的事情:因为妒忌她所说的那些虚假的东西,其他人也开始撒谎,由此可知“others followed her example”指的是其他人也开始在 Facebook 上撒谎。4.What does the author think people should do on Facebook?A.Keep honest.B.Make true friends.C.Make themselves great.D.Help others correct their mistakes.A 解析:细节理解题。根据末段的内容可知,作者认为人们在 Facebook 上应该实话实说,这样才能让别人真正了解自己。语法填空ⅢAs a child, I made the most important decision of my life.

Unfortunately, on the way an unpleasant subject came up and they started to quarrel. By the time they reached the lake, Jane was so angry that she said to Tom, “I’m going to find a better spot for us to camp”and walked away.With no path to follow, Jane just walked on for quite a long time. After she had climbed to a high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake. To her surprise, she saw nothing but forest and, far beyond, a snowcapped mountain top. She suddenly realized that she was lost.“Tom!”she cried.“Help!”No reply. If only she had not left her mobile phone in that bag with Tom. Jane kept moving, but the farther she walked, the more confused she became. As night was beginning to fall, Jane was so tired that she had to stop for the night. Lying awake in the dark, Jane wanted very much to be with Tom and her family. She wanted to hold him and tell him how much she loved him.Jane rose at the break of day, hungry and thirsty. She could hear water trickling(滴落) somewhere at__a__distance. Quickly she followed the sound to a stream. To__her__great__joy,__ she also saw some berry bushes. She drank and ate a few berries. Never in her life had she tasted anything better. Feeling stronger now, Jane began to walk along the stream and hope it would lead her to the lake.As she picked her way carefully along the stream, Jane heard a helicopter. Is that for me? Unfortunately, the trees made it impossible for people to see her from above. A few minutes later, another helicopter flew overhead. Jane took off her yellow__blouse,__ thinking that she should go to an open area and flag them if they came back again.注意:1.所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右;2.至少使用 5 个短文中标有下划线的关键词语;3.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;4.续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。Paragraph 1:But the helicopter didn’t come back again, and the day became darker. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Paragraph 2:Jane woke up at the daybreak. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________One possible version:Paragraph 1:But the helicopter didn’t come back again, and the day became darker. Jane was so tired, hungry, and extremely frightened. She thought to herself, “If only I had not quarreled with Tom. Where is Tom? He must have made the emergency call. What indeed is enough courage. If I continue my spirits tomorrow, I will be likely to guide the helicopter. ”Lying beside the stream,__she fell asleep very soon. Suddenly, she heard the shouts of tigers, which made her scared to death. After she held her breath for a few minutes, everything was quiet again. In the terrible darkness, she slept again.

In Italy, when you order a coffee in a café or bar(酒吧), you are served with a tiny, bitter espresso. This is “normal(正常的) coffee” for Italians and they are not so interested in the huge coffees that we drink in the UK. If you want more than one sip(小口) of coffee in Italy, lungo is a good choice. It is espresso with a little more water added, but still served in a small cup. In addition, while takeaway coffee is quite popular among Brits, it is not very common at all in Italy, especially in non-touristy areas. Generally, Italians prefer to drink their tiny coffees while standing at the bar and, for many, this short break is an important part of their day.Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy includes a coffee and a pastry(酥皮糕点).I have been spoiled for choice with lovely cafés in the Italian town I’m living in. These cafés sell different kinds of mouth-watering pastries—either plain(无馅料的) or filled with cream, chocolate, etc.—as well as delicious coffee. Cappuccinos are very popular at breakfast time and, for me, a creamy cappuccino and a pastry with chocolate is the perfect way to start the day.Finally, I have found that coffee in Italy is so much cheaper than coffee in the UK. Normally, an espresso or a macchiato (an espresso with a drop of milk) costs around a euro and a cappuccino about 1.50!They are small, of course, but this means that in Italy it is possible to go out for coffee every day without breaking the bank.【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了意大利的咖啡文化。1.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?A.By time. B.By space.C.By example. D.By comparison.D 解析:推理判断题。第二段通过与英国的咖啡文化对比,介绍了意大利的咖啡文化。2.Which coffee will you get in Italy if you order one without special instructions?A.Espresso. B.Lungo.C.Cappuccino. D.Macchiato.A 解析:细节理解题。由第二段中的 In Italy, when you order a coffee.“normal(正常的) coffee” for Italians 可知,在意大利咖啡馆或酒吧点一杯咖啡时,服务员上的是 espresso, 这种咖啡对意大利人来说是正常咖啡。3.What can we learn about the coffee culture in Italy?A.Takeaway coffee is very popular among Italians.B.Italians are very often seen drinking huge coffees.C.Italians like to take short breaks from work for coffee.D.Coffees are often served along with pastries during breakfasts.D 解析:细节理解题。由第三段中的 Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy includes a coffee and a pastry(酥皮糕点)可知,在意大利,人们的早餐通常包含一杯咖啡和一份酥皮糕点。4.What does the author think of Italian coffee?A.She loves its bitter taste.B.It is too expensive for her.C.It is a good choice for breakfast.D.The cup it is served in is too small.C 解析:细节理解题。由第三段中的 for me, a creamy cappuccino.perfect way to start the day 可知,作者认为咖啡是早餐的上好选择。BWhen you go to St. Petersburg,the number of attractions can seem overwhelming. If you’re short of time,or just want to make sure to hit the highlights,these are the top mustsee sights in St. Petersburg.The Hermitage MuseumThe Hermitage Museum is one of the most important sights to see for any visitor to St. Petersburg. There you can see lots of different paintings of old masters inside the Hermitage. Prepare to come facetoface with classic Western artists.The Russian MuseumThe Russian Museum holds one of the largest collections of Russian art in the world. View Russian art creations through the ages from Byzantine(拜占庭)style icons to the Socialist Realism of Stalin’s times.Kizhi IslandKizhi Island is an openair museum of wooden buildings from the Karelia Region of Russia. These impressive structures are made without any nails(钉子)—the wood fits together with joints and grooves(沟槽).PeterhofPeterhof is as beautiful as it is fun. You’ll be charged for admission(门票),but go to Peterhof when the fountains(喷泉) are working—during the day in summer. They are shut off in winter as well as in the evenings.The Church of Our Savior on Spilled BloodLove it or hate it,the Church of Our Savior on Spilled Blood is an attractive mustsee sight.The beautiful look may make your eyes brighten,and the paintings inside the church will make you say “Wow!”The Bronze Horseman StatueThe Bronze Horseman is a part of Russian Culture and a symbol of St.Petersburg.Made famous by Alexander Pushkin(普希金 ), this statue of Peter the Great sitting on his horse can truly show Peter the Great’s influence on the Russian idea of greatness.【解题导语】

fountains in Peterhof can be seen all year round.B.The largest collections of Russian art are in the Hermitage Museum.C.The buildings on Kizhi Island are made of wood.D.You can visit Peterhof free of

RussiaB.introduce the famous buildings in RussiaC.persuade artists to study St.PetersburgD.attract tourists to visit St.PetersburgD 解析:写作目的题。根据第一段的“If you’re short of time,or just want to make sure to hit the highlights,these are the top mustsee sights in St.Petersburg.”可知,本文的写作目的是吸引游客来参观 St.Petersburg。CSome educators told us that more years of school could help students get higher scores on intelligence tests.That was a finding of a study of teenage males in some countries.Now,another research shows that physical activity may help students do better in their classes.The research comes as educators in some countries are reducing time for activities like physical education.They are using the time instead for academic(学术的) subjects like math and reading.The studies appeared between 2008 and 2014.They included more than 55,000 children,aged 6 to 18.Amika Singh said “According to the results of our study,we can conclude that being physically active is beneficial for academic performance.There are,first,physiological explanations, like more blood flow, and so more oxygen to the brain.Being physically active means there are more hormones(荷尔蒙) produced like endorphins(内啡肽).And endorphins make your stress level lower and your mood improved, which means you also perform better.”Also,students taking part in organized sports learn rules and how to follow them.This could improve their classroom behaviour and help them keep their mind on their work.The study leaves some questions unanswered,however.Ms Stash says it is not possible to say whether the amount or kind of activity affected the level of academic improvement.This is because of differences among the studies.The researchers said they found only two highquality studies.They needed more highquality studies to confirm(证实) their findings.They also pointed out that “results__for__other__parts__of__the__world__may__be__quite__different”.Still, the general finding was that physically active kids are more likely to do better in school.Ms Singh says schools should consider that finding before they cut physical education programs.Her paper on“Physical Activity and Performance at School”is published in the Archives of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine.【解题导语】 本文介绍了一项新的研究发现:体育活动对学生的学习有益。作者呼吁我们要重视体育教育。9.The passage mainly tells us that ________.A.a research on physical education has been done by the researchersB.there is a possibility that physical activity leads to higher gradesC.the amount or kind of activity directly affects academic levelD.the research shows that the children aged 6 to 18 don’t do sportsB 解析:主旨大意题。根据第一段最后一句可知,另外一项研究显示体育活动可以帮助学生在课堂上表现得更好,能够取得更好的成绩。文章对这一研究发现展开了详细说明。故 B 项正确。10.Which of the following is TRUE?A.Being mentally active is good for academic subjects.B.The more hormones you have, the more stressed you will get.C.The researchers have found many highquality studies to prove the research.D.The educators in some countries think studies,not exercise, mean much to students.D 解析:推理判断题。根据第二段前两句可知,正是因为一些教育者正在减少体育教育的时间,而把更多的时间用在了专业性更强的数学或阅读学科方面,人们才进行了这项研究。故 D 项正确。11.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 6 probably means ________.A.good marks result from highquality studyB.findings are probably different in different areasC.physical activity will spread all over the worldD.academic performance depends on the surroundingsB 解析:句意理解题。根据画线句前面两句可知,研究人员认为他们只进行了两次高质量的研究,还需要更多的研究来证实这个理论。也许在其他地方的研究会得出不同的结果。故 B 项正确。12.What’s the purpose of writing the passage?A.To call our attention to the sports at school.B.To introduce all types of physical activities.C.To represent the academic performance.D.To improve students’ health.A 解析:写作意图题。根据最后一段前两句可知,参加体育活动对学生有很大的好处,学校在减少体育课程之前要三思而后行。呼吁我们要重视体育教育。故 A 项正确。DDo other countries’ students also have so much homework?What do they usually do in their free time?You may feel curious about them.On April 8, a report came out on the lives of high school students in China,
