4.She refused to treat these new discoveries as though they belonged to her,and instead shared all her knowledge with the whole scientific world.她不同意把这些新发现看作是属于她自己的东西,而是献出自己的全部知识,与整个科学界共享。
(1)此句中as though=as if意思是“好像,仿佛”,作连词,后接方式状语从句。从句的谓语动词一般要用虚拟语气,即动词用过去时或过去完成时。e.g.①She always talks to me as though/if she were/was my sister.她总是以我妹妹的口气跟我说话。
②He walked slowly as if he had hurt his leg.他慢慢地走,好像腿受伤的样子。
但as though/if从句在look,seem后,从句的谓语动词可不用虚拟语气。e·g.①She looks as if she"s going to cry.她看起来要哭似的。
②It seems as though he has been at the scene of the crime.看样子他好像曾在犯罪现场。
(2)句中belong to意为“属于”,及物性短语动词。注意此词组无被动浯态,无进行时态。
That dictionary belongs to me.那本辞典是我的。
注意此词组还可意味“是……的一员,与……有关联”。e.g.
I belong to the tennis club.我是这个网球俱乐部的会员。
(3)句中share…with意思是“与……共用,分享,分担”。e.g.①The boy shared his toy with other children.那男孩把他的玩具拿出来,和其他小孩子一起玩。
②Would you share your newspaper with me?我们-起看报好吗?
share…with与share…between/among的区别:share…with意思是“与……分享,共用,分担”,而share…between/among是指“在……之间分配,均分”。如果所分配范围“在……之间”,是几个单数名词,则用between;如果是复数名词,between和among都可以。e.g.①He shared his property between his wife,his daughter and his son.他把他的财产分给了他的妻子、女儿和儿子。
②Mother is sharing the cakes among/between the boys to make sure that everyboy gets some.妈妈在给孩子们分糕点以确保每个孩子得到一份。
5.Which mineral would you use to protect yourself against radium?
你会用哪种矿物来保护自己不受镭的伤害呢?
句中protect sb./sth.against意思是“防御,保护……使不受(伤害)”,这里介词against也可换成from,即protect sb./sth.from…e.g.
①A line of forts was built along the border to protect the country against attack.边界沿线构筑了碉堡,以防敌人进攻该国。
②He is wearing sunglasses to protect his eyes from the strong sunlight.他戴着太阳镜以挡强烈的阳光。
说明:protect against…和protect…from用法基本相同。防御较为严重的伤害,通常用介词against,一般情况常用from,但区分不是很严格。e.g.
Cares should be taken at all times to protect the equipment against/from dustand damp.应当经常注意保护设备,不使其积尘和受潮。

语法教学:
复习定语从句
定语从句分为限定性定语从句和非限定性定语从句。
1.限定性定语从句:限定性定语从句对所修饰的先行词起限定作用。限定性定语从句中关系词的使用列表如下:
在句中的作用关系词说明
主语关系代词:who/that(指人)which/that(指物关系代词不能省略宾语who/whom/that(指人)
which/that(指物)关系代词在非正式文体中可以省略
定语whose名词前表所有关系
介词+关系代词whom(指人)which(指物)关系代词不能用who或that whose(定语)名词前表所有关系状语关系副词:when(时间)where(地点)why(原因)先行词为表时间、地点等的名词例:
①Anna was an American writer who/that interviewed Mao Ze dong in Ya"an.(指人作主语)
安娜是一位当年曾在延安采访毛泽东的美国作家。
②The friends whom/who/that we met in the park were from Egypt.(指人作宾语)
我们在公园里遇见的朋友来自埃及。
③A taxi is a car(that/which)you can hire.(指物作宾语)出租车是你可以租用的小汽车。
④Many forests where the animals lived were destroyed.(作状语)
动物栖息生活的许多森林遭到破坏。
⑤We ought to help those families whose men are in the army.(作定语)
我们应该帮助那些男人在部队的家庭。
⑥He looked at the box from which the voice came.(介词+关系代词)
他看着那只传出声音的方箱子。
2.非限定性定语从句:非限定性.定语从句对所修饰的先行词(句子)起补充说明的作用,不起限定作用。从句中使用关系代词who,whom,which,whose和关系副词when,where等,不使用关系代词that,作宾语的whom不能用who代替。
例:They visited the city of Hangzhou,which is famous for its beautiful scene.他们参观了杭州城,它以风景秀丽而闻名。
非限定性从句中关系词指代整个句子时,用关系代词which。试比较:①Big floods hit some parts of China in the summer of 1998,which caused a great damage to the country.1998年夏中国部分地区遭受特大洪灾,给国家带来了巨大损失。(指代整个句子)
②They got married on July 1,1997,when Hong Kong returned to our motherland.他们于1997年7月1日喜结良缘,香港在这一天回归祖国。(指代时间作状语)
学习中应注意的问题
1.先行词为表示时间或地点的名词在从句中作主语或宾语时关系词的使用。当先行词为表示时间或地点的名词时,在从句中作主语或宾语时,应使用代词which或that,不能用副词when或where.
①a:I"ll never forget the days which/that I spent in the country.(which作spent的宾语)
b:I"ll never forget the days when I worked in the country.(when代替in the days作状语)
②a:They came to the small village,which was hundreds of miles from the city.(which在从句中作主语)
