【原句回放】He was the first man to land on the moon in July 1969. 他是在1969年7月登上月球的第一人。
【点拨】The first/ next/ last... to do... 第……做……
注意:
1. 原句中to land…是动词不定式作后置定语,修饰man。

【点拨】地点或时间名词+see
注意:
1. see在此句中意为“见证,目睹”,表示在某段时间内发生某情况,主语为时间。
2. 动词see, find, witness等主语有时不是人而是表示时间、地点的名词,这是拟人的修辞手法,可以使句子更加生动形象。

My hometown witnessed great changes. 我的家乡发生了巨大的变化。
The last few months have seen more and more traffic accidents.
最近几个月交通事故越来越多。

【词语精讲句型分析】
stage所接的定语从句
【原句回放】… until today we have reached a stage where we have almost no rights at all. …… 一直到今天,我们还处在几乎什么权利都没有的阶段。
【点拨】stage所接的定语从句
注意:
1. 原句中where引导定语从句修饰前面的名词stage,此时stage意思是“阶段”。
2. 当point, stage, situation, case, scene等词作先行词,表示抽象地点,若在定语从句中作状语,常由where引导定语从句。
Can you think out a situation where this word can be used?
你能想出一个能使用这个单词的场合吗?
Her illness has developed to the point where nobody can cure her.
她的病发展到了一个没人能治好的程度了。
Today, we’ll discuss a number of cases where students fail to use the language properly.
今天我们会讨论许多学生不能恰当地使用这种语言的情况。
Their youngest child is at the stage where she can say individual words but not full sentences.
他们最小的孩子处于一个能说个别词,而不能说完整句子的阶段。
3. 但是如果这些词在定语从句中作主语或宾语时,要用that和which引导定语从句。
I don’t like the stage that the workers built in the gym.
我不喜欢工人们在体育馆里建的那个舞台。
way作先行词引导定语从句
【原句回放】We chose to attack the laws. We first broke the law in a way which was peaceful; when this was not allowed… 我们选择向法律进攻。首先我们用和平的方式来破坏法律,而当这种方式也得不到允许时……
【点拨】way作先行词引导定语从句
1. way在定语从句中表示“用这种方式”时,后面跟定语从句的关系词有三种形式:in which, that或者省略关系词。
She was pleased with the way in which/that/-- he had accepted her criticism.
她对他接受她的批评的方式很高兴。
Do it the way you were taught. 要照教你的那样做。
2. way在后接的定语从句中充当主语或宾语时,只能用关系代词which/ that。如原文句子:
We first broke the law in a way which was peaceful. 首先我们用和平的方式来破坏法律。
The way (that/which) he explained to us was quite simple.
他向我们解释的方法非常简单。(the way在从句中作explained的宾语,可以省略)
only引导的部分倒装句
【原句回放】…only then did we decide to answer violence with violence.……只有在那时我们才决定以暴制暴。
【点拨】only后接状语并位于句首时,常引起句子的部分倒装,主要有如下形式:
Only then did I realize that I was wrong. 只有那时我才意识到我错了。
Only by working hard can you succeed. 只有通过努力工作你才能成功。
Only when one loses freedom does one know its value.
只有当一个人失去自由的时候才意识到它的宝贵。
注意:only+主语置于句首,该句不倒装。
Only five students have finished the homework on time. 只有5名学生按时完成了作业。
【拓展】使用部分倒装的几种情况:
1. 否定意义的副词或短语,如never, seldom, little, hardly, in no way 等位于句首时;
2. Not only…but also…, Hardly/Scarcely… when, No sooner…than, So/Such…that…等句型;表示“也, 也不”的so, neither, nor位于句首时;
3. 由连词as, however/no matter how等引导的让步状语从句,通常把表语提前。
