1.There comes a time when the old must give way to the new,and it is not possible to preserve everything from our past as we move towards the future.
[句式分析] 本句是一个复合句,连词and连接表示顺承关系的两个并列句,第一个分句中when引导的是限制性定语从句,修饰先行词a time;第二个分句中as引导的是时间状语从句。
新旧更替的时代已经到来,在走向未来的过程中,我们不可能将过去的一切都保存下来。
Activity 2. 分析长句难句
2.After listening to the scientists who had studied the problem,and citizens who lived near the dam,the government turned to the United Nations for help in 1959.

3.Not only had the countries found a path to the future that did not run over the relics of the past,but they had also learnt that it was possible for countries to work together to build a better tomorrow.
[句式分析] 本句是一个复合句,是由not only...but also...所连接的两个句子,第一个句子以not only开头,助动词had被提到了主语the countries之前,形成了倒装句,其中that did not run over the relics of the past为限制性定语从句,修饰先行词a path;第二个句子中that引导的是宾语从句,其中it为形式主语,真正的主语为后面的不定式结构to work together to build a better tomorrow。

4.Perhaps the best example is shown by UNESCO,which runs a programme that prevents world cultural heritage sites around the world from disappearing.

能体现这种精神的最好的例子或许就是联合国教科文组织所展示的:该组织有一项计划,旨在防止全球各地世界文化遗产的消失。
