Lesson 77 A
successful operation
第77课 一例成功的手术
课堂笔记(一)
1) A.D.
应该写在年数之前, B.C. 应该写在年数之后, 如: from 300 B.C. to A.D.
400 由公元前三百年到公元四百年
B.C.为Before Chris(t 公元前)的缩写,A.D.表示anno Domini (=in the year
of the Lord 或 since Christ was born),即“公元”。A.D.用来与B.C.形成对比,
出现在正式的史书中,平时一般不用。

(3)which
引导的分句为非限定性关系从句,因为它前后都有逗号。非限定性关系从句提供补充信息,往往可以略去。逗号的取舍有时对句子的意思有很大影响:
The government which promises to cut taxes will be popular.
承诺减税的政府将赢得人心。(限定性)
The government, which promises to cut taxes, will be popular.

(4)在非限定性关系从句中,指人的关系代词只能用who/whom,
不能用that(限定性从句则可以);指物的关系代词只能用which,不能用that;带介词的非限定性关系从句中也不能用that:

那些宇航员们可望不久登上月球,据说他们很激动。
This garage, which my father built in his lifetime has lasted for a long time.

在非限定性关系从句中,which 有时可用来代替前面提到的整 个分句:

(5)1)
定语从句有限制性和非限制性两种。限制性定语从句是先行词不可缺少的部分,去掉它主句意思往往不明确;非限制性定语从句是先行词的附加说明,去掉了也不会影响主句的意思,它与主句之间通常用逗号分开,例如:
This is the house which we bought last month. 这是我们上个月买的那幢房子。(限制性)
The house, which we bought last month, is very nice.这幢房子很漂亮,是我们上个月买的。(非限制性)
2) 当先行词是专有名词或物主代词和指示代词所修饰时,其后的定语从句通常是非限制性的,例如:
Charles Smith, who was my former teacher, retired last year. 查理·史密斯去年退休了,他曾经是我的老师。
My house, which I bought last year, has got a lovely garden. 我去年买的的那幢房子带着个漂亮的花园。
This novel, which I have read three times, is very touching. 这本小说很动人,我已经读了三遍。
This is the house which we bought last month. 这是我们上个月买的那幢房子。(限制性)
The house, which we bought last month, is very nice.这幢房子很漂亮,是我们上个月买的。(非限制性)
2) 当先行词是专有名词或物主代词和指示代词所修饰时,其后的定语从句通常是非限制性的,例如:
Charles Smith, who was my former teacher, retired last year. 查理·史密斯去年退休了,他曾经是我的老师。
My house, which I bought last year, has got a lovely garden. 我去年买的的那幢房子带着个漂亮的花园。
This novel, which I have read three times, is very touching. 这本小说很动人,我已经读了三遍。
3)
非限制性定语从句还能将整个主句作为先行词, 对其进行修饰,
这时从句谓语动词要用第三人称单数,例如:
He seems not to have grasped what I meant, which greatly upsets me. 他似乎没抓住我的意思,这使我心烦。
Liquid water changes to vapor, which is called evaporation. 液态水变为蒸汽,这就叫做蒸发。
He seems not to have grasped what I meant, which greatly upsets me. 他似乎没抓住我的意思,这使我心烦。
Liquid water changes to vapor, which is called evaporation. 液态水变为蒸汽,这就叫做蒸发。
