3．状语；结果；条件
□复合句(Compound Sentences)的分类
由一个主句和一个或一个以上的从句构成的句子叫复合句。在复合句中，主句是全句的主体部分，从句是全句的一个句子成分，不能独立。主句与从句之间用关联词连接起来。关联词在主语与从句之间起连接作用。复合句主要分为以下三类：
1．名词性从句：包括主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句、同位语从句
2．定语从句
3．状语从句
一、名词性从句
1．引导名词性从句各类连词的用法。在考查名词性从句时，常考查名词性从句的连接词。这是一个测试热点。引导名词性从句的连词有三大类：
(1)单纯连接词：that, whether, if。它们只起引导从句的作用，并不在从句中充当任何成分。that在句中没有一定的含义。whether和if引导名词性从句时，可表示“是否”。
注意：if只能用来引导宾语从句，不可引导主语从句、表语从句和同位语从句。
She asked me whether/if I could lend her my dictionary.
她问我是否可以借词典给她。
(2)连接代词：what, who, which, whose, whom。它们除了引导名词性从句外，还要在从句充当一定的成分。which和whose通常在名词性从句中作定语。
What can be done has been done.
能做的都已经做了。(what在句中引导主语从句，并在从句中作主语。)
Can you tell me which box is yours
你能告诉我哪一个盒子是你的吗？(which在句中引导宾语从句，并在从句中作定语，修饰box。)
(3)连接副词：how, why, where, when。它们除引导从句外，还要在从句中作状语。
I don’t know how I can finish my work so soon.
我不知道如何才能迅速地完成工作。
Your coat is still where you put it.
你的大衣还在你放的那个地方。
2．名词性从句的正确语序。名词性从句的语序要用陈述语序，不能用疑问语序。
Can you tell me where he lives
你能告诉我他住在什么地方吗？
I don’t know what he is doing these days.
我不知道他这几天在做什么。
3．连接词that的用法及省略。that连接名词性从句时，只起引导的作用，不在从句中充当任何成分。that在引导宾语从句时常常省略，但由并列连词连接的两个以上的宾语从句时，第一个连词that 可以省略， 第二个(包括第二个)以后的that则不可省略。另外，that在引导主语从句、表语从句或同位语从句时，不可以省略。
I know (that) she was born in the country and that she came here to look for a job.
我知道她出生在这个国家，而且，她来这里寻找工作。(句子中的两个that都不在句中充当任何成分。第一个that可以省略，而第二个that则不能省略)
4．连接词what和that的用法区别。what引导名词性从句时，还要在从句中充当一定的成分，如主语、宾语或表语等。what不能在从句中省略。而that在句中只起引导名词性从句的作用，在句中不作任何成分。试比较：
I don’t know what they are talking about.
我不知道他们在谈些什么。(what在句中引导宾语从句，并在从句中作“talking about”的宾语。)
I know (that) he is leaving for Shanghai.
我知道他要去上海了。(在本句中，that引导宾语从句，但在从句中，它不充当任何成分。)
5．连接词whether和if的用法。whether和if都可用来引导宾语从句。但在引导主语从句、表语从句和同位语从句时，只能用whether，不能用if。
Whether he will come to the meeting is still unknown.
他是否会来参加会议还不知道。
The problem is whether he is fit for the job.
问题是他是否适合这项工作。
The problem whether the new hospital will be set up here is to be discussed at the meeting.
会议将讨论是否在这里建一所新的医院这个问题。
6．掌握whatever与whoever的用法。
7．引导名词性从句的连词同引导状语从句的连词、定语从句的关系代词或关系副词大多相同。不要将这三类从句混为一谈。
He went back to the small town where he grew up as a child.
他回到了他小时候成长的小镇。(本句中的where是一个关系副词，引导定语从句，从句的先行词是town)
Plants grow well where there is enough water and sunlight.
植物在水和阳光都充足的地方会长得很好。(本句中的where是一个关系副词，引导状语从句，从句在整个句子中作状语)
Where we shall have the meeting is not known yet.
我们要在哪里开会还不知道。(本句中的where引导一个主语从句)
二、状语从句
对于状语从句，我们需要掌握其种类及常用的引导词：
1．时间状语从句：while, when, before, whenever, as, after, till, until, since, once, ever since, as soon as, no sooner…than, hardly…when, scarcely/barely…when, the moment/minute/instant, on (the point of) doing…
2．地点状语从句：where, wherever
3．原因状语从句：because, since, as, seeing that, considering that, now that, in that, for fear that, lest, owing to the fact that, because of the fact that, due to the fact that…
4．方式状语从句：as, as if, as though, how…
5．比较状语从句：as, than, as…as…， not so…as, hardly…than…
6．结果状语从句：so that, so…that…， such…that…， so as to…
7．条件状语从句：if, unless, in case, so long as, so far as, provided/providing(that), supposing (that), on condition that…
8．让步状语从句：though, although, even if, even though, whether, as, however, no matter (what, how, when), for all that, in spite of the fact that, granted that, regardless of the fact that…
9．目的状语从句：that, so that, in order that, lest, for the fear that, in case…
三、定语从句
1．引导词为关系代词及关系副词。关系代词有：who, that, which, whose。 关系副词有：when, where, why。关系代词的作用：在从句中作主语、表语或宾语。whose则在从句中作定语，修饰后面的名词。
2．只能用that的情况：
(1)先行词是all，everything，nothing，anything，much，many, a lot，few，little，none等时。
(2)先行词是序数词或者是last时；或者先行词被序数词及last修饰时。
(3)先行词被最高级修饰或先行词本身是最高级时。
(4)先行词被all，every，some，next，any，no，many，much，the only，the very等修饰时。
(5)一些以who，which开头的句子，为了避免重复，也要用that作关系代词。
(6)先行词既指人也指物时。
(7)way用作先行词时，关联词用that或in which，也可省略不用，但不可用which。
3．只能用which的情况：
(1)引导非限制性定语从句，替代前面整个句子。
(2)在介词的后面只能用关系代词which来代指前面表示物的名词，不可用that。
4．注意关系代词as的用法：
(1)从含义上来说，as引导非限制性定语从句时，常常表示“正如……的那样；正像”。
(2)从位置方面来说，as引导的非限制性定语从句可放在先行词(通常是一个句子)的前面、后面，甚至可放在这个句子的中间。因为，as引导的非限制性定语从句是一个插入语，用来对一个句子进行附加说明，故它在句中的位置比较灵活。
5．注意关系副词的用法。关系副词where, when, why等在定语从句中只能用作状语。
6．注意介词后面的关系代词。在介词后面只能用关系代词whom指人(不可用that或who)，用which指物(不可用that)。

Advice on Choosing Your Career
You probably are very much concerned about which direction you take in your career, but before working through the process of generating and refining specific career choices, helicopter up to 10,000 feet from where you can view your overall career map, answer the big questions and set your overall direction. __1__ What is your aim How long have you got Remember that there are no right answers, only the best choice for you, based on what you know now.
Having laid out your overall map, set boundaries and defined your personal targets, you can then turn to practical issues. __2__ Write down examples of how you demonstrate key employ ability skills such as team work, leadership, and communication.
__3__ Go out and meet people, attend talks, go to relevant lectures, watch videos about industries and organisations, seek out websites that can give you objective and general career advice, for example, the open access Oxford university careers website.
Over time you can start to narrow down your choices and then choose one. __4__
In 1804, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark set off with a compass and direction, and a general destination of mapping the new Louisiana territories in America. But they had no exact map. __5__ Your career will be much longer but, like Lewis and Clark, it is about direction, not destination.
A．Where, roughly, are you going
B．Their successful expedition took two years.
C．In any event, you have a few years to explore.
D．Identify what you are good at, based on your skills and experiences.
E．That way, you’ll be more focused and thus more likely to achieve your goal.
F．You are looking for a match to what might suit you now, but that changes over time.
G．Your career project might take some time, as now you are probably short of information.

5．B　根据上文“In 1804, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark set off…But they had no exact map.”和下文“Your career will be much longer but, like Lewis and Clark, it is about direction, not destination.”可知，上文讲述了Lewis和Clark想要绘制美国路易斯安那州新领土的地图，但他们没有准确的地图；下文讲述了你的职业生涯会比这更长。由此可知，空格处应承上启下，与Lewis和Clark花费的时间有关，B项“他们用了两年时间才成功完成考察。”符合语境。故选B项。(共97张PPT)

Rock and pop hitmaker Jim Steinman, who wrote and composed music for Meat Loaf, Bonnie Tyler, Celine Dion, and more, died Monday in Danbury, Connecticut.He was 73. Steinman’s brother Bill confirmed that the cause of death was kidney(肾) failure.
A statement posted on the Internet read, “It’s with a heavy heart that I can confirm Jim’s passing.There will be much more to say in the coming hours and days as we prepare to honour this giant of a human being and his glorious legacy.”
Steinman’s wholly unique career found him working as a composer, lyricist, and producer for many artists in a variety of styles.According to a biography on his website, the records he’s worked on have sold more than 190 million copies worldwide.He was nominated(提名) for four Grammys, and won Album of the Year for his work on Dion’s 1996 smash, Falling Into You.
Steinman began his career in a musical theater while in college, writing and starring in a rock musical called The Dream Engine, which gained the attention of New York theatrical producer Joe Papp. After graduating, Steinman worked at the Public Theatre (which was established by Papp). In 1973, Yvonne Elliman recorded Steinman’s song “Happy Ending”, which became Steinman’s first commercially released tune.That same year, the Public Theatre staged his musical More Than You Deserve.
One of the actors who auditioned for More Than You Deserve was Meat Loaf, and he and Steinman soon struck up a close personal and professional relationship.The two began working on Meat Loaf’s solo album, Bat Out of Hell, in the early 70s, but it wouldn’t be released until 1977．It wasn’t until about one year later — after Meat Loaf performed on Saturday Night Live — that the album became a hit.
“There is no other songwriter ever like him,” Meat Loaf said.“I can never repay him.He has been such an influence, in fact, the biggest influence on my life, and I learnt so much from him that there would be no way I could ever repay Mr Jim Steinman.”
(　　)1．What caused Jim Steinman’s death
A．A hit on the head. B．A kidney problem.

e．Jim’s musical More Than You Deserve was put on show.
f．Jim won Album of the Year for his work on Falling Into You.
A．dbecaf　 B．dbcfae
C．fdcaeb　 D．fbceda
(　　)3．Why was Jim Steinman important to Meat Loaf
A．Because Jim was an extraordinary songwriter.
B．Because Jim allowed him not to repay his debt.
C．Because Jim was influential in the music industry.
D．Because Jim gave him friendship and career support.
(　　)4．What do we learn about Jim Steinman
A．He mainly focused his career on acting in musicals.
B．He is a well–known and widely respected musician.
C．His closest friends were Bill, Papp and Meat Loaf.
D．He won four Grammys in the course of his career.

How to Have an Awesome Work Career

Meaning.__1__ There is a purpose to your work, and you have to find that higher purpose.Even ordinary jobs can be viewed as having meaning.If you can’t find the meaning in your current job, it may be time to look for a new career.
Accomplishment.Choose a career where you can accomplish things, take pride in those accomplishments, and celebrate them.__2__ The pride comes from readers and students who comment favourably on my accomplishments.
Positive Relationships.Nothing can make a career more awesome than working with terrific people, and building strong and rewarding relationships with them.__3__
I get to meet with wonderful clients in my consulting work, and I have some of the best research cooperators.I try to avoid the bad relationships — those that can make you question yourself and your career choice.
Balance.An awesome career is one that allows time for family, friends, and the ability to pursue non–work–related interests.I often talk to people who are unhappy because their jobs consume all of their time and energy.__4__ I rarely hear any regrets from them.
__5__ To some extent it is true.But it is more likely that people have to plan, make tough strategic career decisions, and work hard to make their career awesome.
A．An awesome job is one that has meaning.
B．Can all the people have awesome careers
C．I think I understand the different meanings it has.
D．I take pride when I publish a paper or give a great lecture.
E．Some of them change to careers that allow greater balance.
F．I’m fortunate to have amazing, talented, and awesome students.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章详细描述了唐燕如何放弃有前途的事业，投身于拯救濒临失传的“北京绢人”艺术，并详细介绍了她在创业过程中所遇到的挑战和困难，以及她如何通过创新和改良来降低成本，并最终成功创建了自己的“唐娃娃”品牌。
1．an　考查冠词。句意：然后他们花了整整一年的时间制作了几个小雕像，却发现他们的产品没有市场。year是可数名词单数，此处表示泛指，且entire发音为元音音素开头，应用不定冠词an修饰。故填an。
2．potentially　考查副词。句意：由于材料昂贵，工艺技术要求高，一个小雕像的成本可能相当于当时许多人的年薪。分析句子结构可知，此处应用副词作状语修饰动词cost。故填potentially。
3．drove　考查动词时态。句意：许多潜在客户对我们产品的美丽感到惊讶，但它们的价格却把他们劝退了。本句是but连接的并列句，drive作后句的谓语动词。根据前文的“were amazed”可知，此处是在叙述过去发生的事，动词应用一般过去时。故填drove。
4．what　考查宾语从句。句意：第一次失败教会了唐他们所需要的：找到降低生产成本的方法。分析句子结构可知，空格处引导宾语从句，从句中的needed缺少宾语，且意义为“……的事物”，应用what引导。故填what。
5．adaptations　考查名词的数。句意：她对传统的小雕像做了许多有创意和大胆的改编，比如用机器给衣服上色，把价格降到了原价的十分之一以下。分析句子结构可知，此处应用名词作宾语；又根据空格前的many可知，adaptation应用复数形式。故填adaptations。
6．cutting　考查动词的–ing形式。句意：同上题。分析句子结构可知，cut在句子中作为非谓语动词，它和“She made many creative and bold…to the traditional figurines, like using machines to paint the clothes”之间为主动关系，应用动词的-ing形式作状语。故填cutting。
7．to lend　考查动词不定式。句意：然而，为了给娃娃增添精致感和工艺感，她保留了一些手工制作的发型和妆容。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词preserved，所以lend用非谓语形式。根据语境，此处表目的，应用不定式作目的状语。故填to lend。
8．to　考查介词。句意：经过几十年的全身心投入，唐现在经营着自己的北京绢人产品品牌“唐娃娃”。此处考查固定短语devotion to意为“献身于”。故填to。
9．were called　考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：当我还小的时候，娃娃被称为“yangwawa”，意思是西方娃娃。分析句子结构可知，call作本句谓语动词，它和主语dolls之间是被动关系，应用被动语态。根据前文的was可知，用一般过去时。故填were called。
10．historical　考查形容词。句意：我想制作与中国人有文化联系的娃娃，以及具有丰富历史内涵的绢人。分析句子结构可知，空格处作定语修饰名词implication。故填historical。
Ⅳ.应用文写作

【句式剖析】
本句中的“to start thinking”是动词不定式在句中作后置定语。
◇句式解读
【归纳拓展】
不定式在句中通常用作后置定语，即放在被修饰名词或代词后。它通常有以下几种用法：
①不定式常可用来修饰物，表示要做某事。
I have nothing to say on this question.
在这个问题上，我没有什么话要说。
②不定式还可用来修饰人。
He was the first guest to arrive.
他是第一个到达的客人。
③很多特定的名词后也可用不定式作定语，这样的名词常用的有：way，time，reason，chance，opportunity，need，wish，effort，right，ambition等。
It’s time for you to get up and go to school.
你该起床去上学了。
④某些动词或形容词后接不定式时，它相应的同根名词也常用不定式作定语。
He made an attempt to learn English well.他试图学好英语。
⑤此外，当不定式中的动词与所修饰的名词或代词构成动宾关系且动词为不及物动词时，需用“不定式＋介词”的结构，这种情况下的介词不能省略。
I need a pen to write with.
我需要一支笔写字。
⑥不定式作定语除了原形to do外，还会有下面的形式，即：不定式的被动形式“to be done”，不定式的完成时“to have done”。
There is no need to have bought a new pair of shoes for me.
没有必要给我买一双新鞋。(to have bought意为“已买”).

2．(P50)I wish I had thought more about what I really wanted to do.
【翻译】我真希望当年能再多想想自己真正想要做什么。
【句式剖析】
wish后接宾语从句时和“if only”后面加句子一样，翻译成“但愿；要是……就好了”。它常常用虚拟语气来表示。
【归纳拓展】
wish引导的宾语从句中谓语动词用虚拟语气时，谓语动词有三种可能的形式：
(1)表示与现在事实相反的愿望，用动词过去式，be动词常用were。
(2)表示与过去事实相反的愿望，用“had＋过去分词”。
(3)表示与将来事实相反的愿望，用“could/would＋动词原形”。
I wish I knew everything in the world.
要是我知道世间的一切该有多好啊。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
I think it was October, 1982．A friend had business dealings in the city of Reno, Nevada, and I was asked to accompany her on an overnight trip.While she conducted her business, I was aimlessly wandering down Virginia Street, heading into a most gloriously beautiful sunset.I had an urge to speak to someone on the street to share that beauty, but I couldn’t make eye contact with anyone.
Quickly I ducked into a department store and asked the lady behind the counter if she could come outside for just a minute.She looked at me as though I were from some other planet and said, “Well…” Surprisingly, she followed me out.
When she got outside I said to her, “Just look at that sunset! Nobody out here was looking at it and I just had to share it with someone.”
For a few seconds we just looked.Then I said, “God’s in his heaven and all’s right with the world.” I thanked her for coming out to see it and sharing the beauty.
Four years later my situation had changed considerably.I had come to the end of a twenty-year marriage.I was alone and on my own for the first time in my life.One day, while my clothes were going around，I picked up a Unity Magazine and read an article about a woman who had been in similar circumstances.She had come to the end of a marriage, moved to a strange community, and the only job she could find was one she disliked: cosmetic sales in a department store.We had a lot in common.
Then something happened to her that changed everything.She said a woman came into her department store and asked her to step outside to look at a sunset.The stranger had said “God’s in his heaven and all’s right with the world,” and she had realised the truth in that statement and that she simply had not been seeing it.From that moment on, she turned her life around.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Life had seemed perfect for my mother between working in her small garden and writing children’s stories for a website, to which she had been a regular contributor until the birth of my little baby Elon.Her stories had always been well-received winning her hundreds of thousands of fans.Updates of her special column had been their weekly anticipation(期盼) during the years.
My husband, Mathew, and I ran a trade business with 46 countries.We were struggling for a balance between family and work when Mum offered to help out.She decided to retire from writing to take care of Elon.I supposed it must have been a hard decision for her to give up her long-loved career and say goodbye to her devoted fans.The sacrifice would be a huge one though it was the best for Elon.
I owe too much to Mum, a single mother who not only brought me up and provided me with the best education but also accompanied me through thick and thin, enlightening(启发) me about life and bringing me up as a happy and responsible person.So I told Mum to think twice and we could discuss other alternatives.
On one of her visits to us, Mum brought with her an old photo album, which was filled with old pictures of Mum and me in my childhood.Looking at the pictures one by one, I was flooded by blurry(模糊的) but sweet memories.In the pictures, Mum, looked young, beautiful and content.Mum told me how much happiness I had brought to her and how much inspiration she had got from me for writing children’s stories.
I came to truly understand what it was that made Mum a popular writer and why she was referred to as “having the best skills to express what love really means” by critics.Having the belief that Mum would surely be happy with Elon.I finally accepted Mum’s offer though still feeling sorry for her readers and the website she wrote for.
注意：
1．续写的词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应的位置作答。
One day, Mum told me she got an email from the website owner, Mr Smith, saying he would come to visit us as a friend. _______________________________________________
At the end of the dinner，Mr Smith told us the real purpose of his visit.___________________________________________
【答案】One possible version：
One day, Mum told me she got an email from the website owner. Mr Smith, saying he would come to visit us as a friend. I guessed he would try to persuade Mum to go on writing for him, but the fact was that she wouldn’t have the time. Anyway, we couldn’t refuse a friend’s visit. Mr Smith arrived at a weekend, and we prepared a dinner party for him, at which he expressed his understanding about Mum’s choice and we talked about the stories Mum had written, her enthusiastic fans and, of course, Mum’s life with our baby, Elon.
At the end of the dinner，Mr Smith told us the real purpose of his visit. He took the advice of the readers and came to discuss about a new column on his website, which he named Elon and Grandma. In the new weekly column, he would like us to share photos and videos of Mum’s life with the baby as well as Mum’s feelings about them. Thinking that it won’t be too much trouble, we happily accepted the idea. We knew the column would be successful, but what we didn’t expect was Elon became an Internet celebrity overnight.(共82张PPT)

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
“I am not crazy,” says Dr William Farber, shortly after performing acupuncture(针灸) on a rabbit. “I am ahead of my time.” If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods. But Farber is certain he’ll have the last laugh.
He’s one of a small but growing number of American veterinarians(兽医) now practising “holistic” medicine — combining traditional Western treatments with acupuncture, chiropractic(按摩疗法) and herbal medicine.
Farber, a graduate of Colorado State University, started out as a more conventional veterinarian. He became interested in alternative treatments 20 years ago when he suffered from terrible back pain. He tried muscle–relaxing drugs but found little relief. Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets.
Leigh Tindale’s dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farber’s treatments eased her dog’s suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months. And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy, “moves more easily and rides more comfortably” after a chiropractic adjustment.
Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time, and if the past is any indication, he may be right: Since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700. “Sometimes it surprises me that it works so well,” he says. “I will do anything to help an animal. That’s my job.”
(　　)1．What do some of Farber’s coworkers think of him
A．He’s odd.　 B．He’s strict.
C．He’s brave.　 D．He’s rude.
(　　)2．Why did Farber decide to try acupuncture on pets
A．He was trained in it at university.
B．He was inspired by another veterinarian.
C．He benefited from it as a patient.
D．He wanted to save money for pet owners.
(　　)3．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A．Steps of a chiropractic treatment.
B．The complexity of veterinarians’ work.
C．Examples of rare animal diseases.
D．The effectiveness of holistic medicine.
(　　)4．Why does the author mention the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association
A．To prove Farber’s point.
B．To emphasise its importance.
C．To praise veterinarians.
D．To advocate animal protection.

Regrets can spoil a career.For Bas Timmer they were a turning point.A young Dutch fashion designer just out of school in 2014, Timmer was working on a promising direction as a cold weather–gear specialist when he tripped over a homeless man one cold night.He thought about giving the man one of his signature fashion hoodies(连帽衫), but — to his lasting shame — paused for fear of harming his brand.A few months later a friend’s father, also homeless, died of hypothermia(体温过低).“I felt guilty，” says Timmer.“I had the opportunity to help, and I did nothing.”
To make up for it, he devoted his brand to helping others.Rejecting his first idea of hoodies for the homeless as not good enough, he designed around the requirements for life on the streets: waterproof, warm, portable and good for sleeping.He presented his newly-designed product to a local homeless man, who was immediately attracted by it.That’s when the whole Sheltersuit idea started.
Six years later, Timmer, 30, is still handing out Sheltersuits.So far, he has distributed 12,500 to homeless people around the world.The suits are made out of donated and upcycled materials, and the manufacturing costs are covered by donations.
Timmer is aware that his invention is no solution for homelessness, which he knows is not going to go away anytime soon.Still, he says, it’s better than doing nothing.
Timmer hasn’t entirely given up on his dreams of designing for a commercial brand.Donations alone can’t help the world’s 100 million homelessness, but a globally recognised brand might.“By selling beautiful products that keep people warm and dry and protected.I can help others stay warm and dry and protected.”

A．He knew the homeless man.
B．He nearly fell down due to the man.

D．His new design received recognition from a local homeless man.
(　　)7．Which of the following can best describe Timmer

D．Considerate and generous.
