Lesson 26Wanted: a large biscuit tin
Part 1: Text
No one can avoid being influenced by advertisements. Much as we may pride ourselves on our good taste, we are no longer free to choose the things we want, for advertising exerts a subtle influence on us. In their efforts to persuade us to buy this or that product, advertisers have made a close study of human nature and have classified all our little weaknesses. Advertisers discovered years ago that all of us love to get something for nothing. An advertisement which begins with the magic word FREE can rarely go wrong. These days, advertisers not only offer free samples but free cars, free houses, and free trips round the world as well. They devise hundreds of competitions which will enable us to win huge sums of money. Radio and television have made it possible for advertisers to capture the attention of millions of people in this way. During a radio programme, a company of biscuit manufacturers once asked listeners to bake biscuits and send them to their factory. They offered to pay $2 a pound for the biggest biscuit baked by a listener. The response to this competition was tremendous. Before long, biscuits of all shapes and sizes began arriving at the factory. One lady brought in a biscuit on a wheelbarrow. It weighed nearly 500 pounds. A little later, a man came along with a biscuit which occupied the whole boot of his car. All the biscuits that were sent were carefully weighed. The largest was 713 pounds. It seemed certain that this would win the prize. But just before the competition closed, a lorry arrived at the factory with a truly colossal biscuit which weighed 2400 pounds. It had been baked by a college student who had used over 1000 pounds of flour, 800 pounds of sugar, 200 pounds of fat, and 400 pounds of various other ingredients. It was so heavy that a crane had to be used to remove it from the lorry. The manufacturers had to pay more money than they had anticipated, for they bought the biscuit from the student for $4800.

让步状语从句（though, although,as引导）
though, although,as引导让步状语从句，句子要采用倒装形式( adj. / adv. / n. / v.用在as之前) 1.adj. + as + 主语+ 谓语
Rich as he is, he is not happy.
Tired as I was, I try to finish it.
2.adv. (much ) + as + 从句
Much as I like you, I will not marry you.
Much as I hate doing it, I must study English.虽然我不愿意这么做，但我今晚必须学习英语。
3.v. + as + 主语 + 助动词

定语从句
1.指人的关系代词:who, whom, whose, that 的用法:
(1)作主语(who, that )
Those who are going to play in the match are to meet at the gate at 1:30 after lunch. 那些参加比赛的人午饭后1:30在大门口集合。 在本句中，先行词是those;关系代词who引导定语从句，同时代替先行词在从句中担任动词are going to play 的主语。
(2)作宾语包括作介词宾语(whom, that )。此种情况下的关系代词可以省略;
This is just the man(whom/that) I want for the job.这正是我要的做这份工作的人。
在本句中，先行词是the man;关系代词whom/that 引导定语从句，同时代替先行词在从句中担任动词want 的宾语。
(3)当关系代词紧跟介词作介词宾语时，不能用that，也不能省略，
如:The book from which I got a lot of useful information was written by a famous scientist. 我从中得到许多有用信息的那本书是一位科学家写的。 但是当介词放在从句末尾时，作为介词宾语的关系代词可以用that 并且可以省略。
如上头两句可改为:
The book (that /which) I got a lot of information from was written by a famous scientist.
