英语名词性从句、定语从句和状语从句的用法大全
课文主要语言点
Children who play truant from school are unimaginative. 1)who引导的是定语从句，修饰先行词children。 2)注意children虽然被定语从句修饰，但因为是泛指，所以没有加任何修饰语。 3)play truant from school，逃学。也可以简单表达为play truant。注意truant表示“逃学的孩子”。 4)unimaginative，没有想象力的。源自动词imagine(想象)。
A quiet day's fishing, or eight hours in a cinema watching the same film over and over again, is usually as far as they get. 1)注意从泛读角度来看，or引导的成分可以跳过，因为or表示并列选择关系，而且前后还被逗号隔开，说明该成分主要起着补充说明作用，可要可不要。 2)watching引导的短语作为伴随状语，补充说明待在电*里所做的事情。 3)over and over again，一遍又一遍。 4)as far as they get，他们顶多到这种程度而已。这里的as far as...是引申义，意为“到...程度”。
They have all been put to shame by a boy who, while playing truant, travelled 1.600 miles. 1)put...to shame，使...感到羞愧、使...相形见绌。 2)while playing truant前后被逗号隔开，作为插入语，起着补充说明作用，交代travel发生的时间背景。 3)注意“travel+距离”就表示走过多远距离。注意travelled在美语里的拼写里只有一个l。
He hitchhiked to Dover and, towards evening, went into a boat to find somewhere to sleep. 1)hitchhike，搭便车旅行。hitchhike to，搭便车到某地。 2)towards evening，临近天黑。 3)find somewhere to sleep，找个地方睡觉。
When he woke up next morning, he discovered that the boat had, in the meantime, travelled to Calais. 1)discover，发现。该词由否定前缀dis-和cover(覆盖)组成。注意发音时，c要浊化为[g]。 2)in the meantime，与此同时。
No one noticed the boy as he crept off. From there, he hitchhiked to Paris in a lorry. 1)creep off，爬出来。 2)注意from there中的there是指Calais。 3)lorry，卡车。美式英语的表达为truck。
The next car the boy stopped did not take him to the centre of Paris as he hoped it would, but to Perpignan on the French-Spanish border. 1)注意the boy stopped是定语从句，修饰先行词the next car，中间省略了关系代词that或which。 2)take sb. to，把某人带到某地。 3)as引导的是方式状语从句，而该从句中又含了一个宾语从句it would，it前省略了连接代词that。 4)注意整句话是由“not..., but...”引导的并列句。 5)on....border，在...的边界上。
There he was picked up by a policeman and sent back to England by the local authorities. 1)注意句首的there是指the French-Spanish border。 2)pick up，发现。 3)send sb. back to，把某人送回某地。 4)the local authorities，*、当地政府部门。
He has surely set up a record for the thousands of children who dream of evading school. 1)surely，肯定地。 2)thousands of，成千上万。注意前面不能加具体数字。 3)dream of，梦想。 4)evade，逃避。evade school，逃学。

But as they soon discovered, disguises can sometimes be too perfect. 1)注意本句话主从句分别采用了不同的时态。as引导的方式状语从句采用了一般过去时，是因为discover是发生在过去的动作，而主句中的can采用了一般现在时的用法，是因为这句话表达的是一般情况。 2)disguise，伪装。注意disguises can be too perfect意思是“伪装有时会过去完美”，也就说，有时伪装得太好，反倒会出问题。

Oh, is it?' said the sheriff with a sneer. 'Well, I'm Brinksley Meers, and my other name is Gloria Gleam. Now you get out of here fast!' 1)with a sneer，冷笑着。这是因为该警官根本不相信这群人是明星，所以说话时都带着讽刺轻蔑的口吻。 2)Now you get out of here fast! 警官最后用了一个fast来表达自己的叱令，让那些人赶快滚。
