3. 同位语从句与定语从句的辨析
4. what; whatever; whoever; where引导的名词性从句
5. it 作为形式主语的句型

二. 知识总结与归纳：
（一）名词性从句的结构：名词性从句起名词作用在句中做主语，表 语，宾语和同位语构成：
主语从句；表语从句；宾语从句和同位语从句。引导名词性从句的连词有三类： that；whether;
wh-疑问词。
例句：

words such as table, animal and age.
2. They realize that it is of great value to record and teach them to the younger generation.

clear rivers, and rich fields bearing fruit and grain.

He and other Chinese captains and their role in discovering the world.
7. That most of these are now threatened and may disappear is a serious matter to the people in

8. This gave him the idea that the Chinese perhaps first discovered America.

（二）同位语从句在名词idea; fact; news; thought; suggestionadvice; problem; proof等词后面
带上that+陈述句 这部分从句解释了前面的那些名词所指的内容，与那些名词起着同等作
用的句子成分，叫同位语从句。

London is past.

7. I have no idea what has happened to him.

（三）同位语从句与定语从句的辨析：
th at引导的同位语从句解释前面名词的内容，that是连词没有任何意义，在从句中不做

任何成分。而定语从句修饰前面的先行词，从句有关系词that; which; who; when; where; why
引导，先行词在从句中充当主语，宾语，状语。
1. The news that the plane would take off on time made everyone happy.
2. The news that is spreading around the airport is that a heavy storm is coming.

（四）what; whatever; whoever; where 引导的名词性从句：what+陈述句：……的话事的样

2. The suggestion that the students should learn something practical is worth considering.
3. I though it necessary that I should stay in the room till he came back.

三. 阅读理解
Coketown was a town of red brick, or of brick that would have been red if the smoke and
ashes had allowed it; but in fact it was a town of unnatural red and black like the painted face of
savage（野人）. It was a town of machinery and tall chimney, out of which smoke trailed
themselves for ever and ever. It had a black canal in it, and a river that ran purple with ill smelling
color, and large piles of building full of windows where there was a rattling and a trembling all
day long, and where the steam- engine worked up and down like the head of an elephant in a state
of madness. The town contained several large streets all very like one another, and many small
streets still more like one another, inhabited（居住）by people equally like one another.
A sunny midsummer day. There was such a thing sometimes even in Coketown. Seen from a
distance in such a weather, Coketown lay covered in a smoke of its own. You only knew the town
was there, because you knew there could have been no such a place upon the view without a town.
The streets were hot and dusty on the summer day, and the sun was so bright that it even
shone through the smoke over Coketown, and could not be looked at steadily. Workers appeared
from low underground doorways into factory yards, and sat on steps, wiping their face sand
looking at coals. The whole town seemed to be frying in oil. There was a smell of hot oil
everywhere. The atmosphere of those places was like the breath of hell（地狱）, and their
inhabitants wasting with heat, walked lazily in the desert. But no temperature made the mad
elephants more mad or more sane（理智的）. Their tiresome heads went up and down at the sane
rate, in hot weather and in cold, wet weather and dry. The measured movement of their shadows of
wood; while for the summer noise of insects, it could offer all the year round, from the dawn of
Monday to the night of Saturday.
1. Which of the following words is NOT properly used to describe Coketown ?
A. unpleasant B. dirty C. noisy D. deserted
2. From the passage we know that Coketown was mainly a（n）_____town.
A. industrial B. agricultural C. historical D. cultural
3. Only _____ were not affected by weather.
A. the workmen B. the habitants C. the steam-engine D. the woods
4. Which is the author’s opinion of Coketown?
A. Coketown should be replaced by woods
B. The town had too much oil in it
C. The town was seriously polluted

D. The town’s atmosphere was unchanged

machinery and tall chimney, out of which smoke trailed themselves for ever and ever.；第二段：

段：Workers appeared from low underground doorways into factory yards, and sat on steps, wiping
their face sand looking at coals。

的）. Their tiresome heads went up and down at the sane rate, in hot weather and in cold, wet

steam-engine worked up and down like the head of an elephant in a state of madness.。
4. C 小镇的景色明显受着严重的工业污染。
