宋祖英作为歌唱演员而著名。
(2)be famous for表示“以……而著名”,接著名的原因。

My sister’s hair is the same as mine.
我妹妹的头发和我的一样长。
7.They find a camel man on their way to Mingsha Mountain.
on one’s way to意为“在某人去某地的路上”。常用短语:on one’s way home在某人回家的路上;on one’s way to school在某人去上学的路上。
John and Mike are on the way to the park.
约翰和迈克在去公园的路上。
【注意】 one’s要根据主语做具体变化,地点如果为副词home, here, there,要省略to。
He is on his way home.他正在回家的路上。
8.You will not fall off.
fall off用作动词短语,意为“从……跌落/掉落”。
Don’t fall off the bike.
= Don’t fall down from the bike.
