定语从句有限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句两种。具体用法如下:
一、在句中作用不同
限制性定语从句对先行词有限定制约的作用,使该词的含义更具体,更明确。限制性定语从句不能被省略,否则主句的句意就不完整。
非限制性定语从句与先行词关系不十分密切,只是对其作一些附加说明,不起限定制约的作用。如果将非限制性定语从句省去,主句的意义仍然完整。
This is the house which we bought last month.
这是我们上个月买的那幢房子。(限制性定语从句)
课时语法精讲
97
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。(非限制性定语从句)
二、外在表现形式不同
限制性定语从句与先行词关系密切,所以不可以用逗号将其与主句隔开;而非限制性定语从句与先行词关系不十分密切,所以可用逗号将其与主句隔开。
This is the place where he used to live.
这是他过去住的地方。(限制性定语从句)
Mr Zhang, who came to see me yesterday, is an old friend of mine.
张先生是我的一个老朋友,他昨天来看望我。 (非限制性定语从句)
课时语法精讲
98
三、先行词内容有所不同
大多数限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句的先行词往往为某一个名词、代词或短语。但在特殊情况下,非限制性定语从句的先行词也可为整个主句,此时非限制性定语从句常由 which 引导,指代整个句子。
Soldiers opened fire on a car which failed to stop at an army checkpoint.
士兵们向一辆没在军事检查站停下来的汽车开了火。(which指代car)
A fiveyearold boy can speak two foreign languages, which surprises all the people present.
一个五岁的男孩会说两种外语,这让在场的所有人都感到惊讶。(which指代整个主句)

99
四、关系词的使用情况有所不同
1.that不能引导非限制性定语从句

Sea horses live in warm ocean waters all over the world. They keep safe from other fish by hiding in plants and grasses that grow under the sea. They can also change colors
How did the sea horse get its name? It's not hard to guess. The top half of this fish looks like a small horse. But looking at the sea horse's tail, you might think “sea monkey” is a better name. Then there's the sea horse's pouch (袋). “Sea kangaroo” might also be a good name for this fish.
课后课时作业(一)
128
to match their surroundings (环境). A sea horse remains in one place for hours at a time by winding (缠绕) its tail around a plant. It feeds on live food, such as small shrimp. For a fish that doesn't move around much, the sea horse eats a lot—in just one day, a sea horse can eat 3,000 shrimp!
A sea horse keeps the same mate for its whole life, and it's the male (雄的) sea horse that gives birth to baby sea horses. How does this happen? Baby sea horses start out as eggs, which come from the female's body. The male carries the eggs in its pouch for about three weeks until they hatch (孵化). Soon after the babies are born, the female gives her mate a new set of eggs. The male sea horse spends most of its life carrying eggs.
课后课时作业(一)
129
Sadly, the number of sea horses is becoming smaller. Why is this happening? Some places where sea horses once lived have been filled in to make new land. Also, many sea horses are caught and sold as aquarium fish. This really is not a good idea because most sea horses don't live long in aquariums. The best place for a sea horse is the ocean.

A novel design approach to gardening has been gaining in popularity worldwide. Referred to as matrix planting, this approach aims for nature to do a lot more of the heavy lifting in the garden, and even some of the designing. Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and power tools, it's based on an elegantly simple principle: to garden more like nature does.
The concept was born when German city planners sought to plant large areas of parkland after World War Ⅱ in a reproducible way that would need minimal maintenance. Planners created planting mixes that could be used modularly (模块化). In a matrix garden, plants with similar cultural needs are grouped so that they will grow together above and below ground, forming a cooperative ecosystem that conserves water and discourages weeds.
课后课时作业(一)
134
Dutch plantsman and designer Piet Oudolf's gardens popularized this style, adding artistic flavors to the planting mixes while playing with color and form, including fourseason interest and serving the needs of wildlife. Beautiful yearround, they invite you to enjoy the smallest detail, from the sound of grasses in the gentle wind to the sculpture of oddlooking seed heads.
It takes a lot of thought to look this natural. While matrix gardens appear wild, they are carefully planned, with cultural needs the first consideration. Led by the concept of “right plant, right place,” they match plants that enjoy the same soil, sun and weather conditions, and arrange them according to their patterns of growth.
课后课时作业(一)
135
The benefits are substantial for both gardener and planet. With human inputs dramatically reduced, the garden's ecology can develop well. Established matrix gardens should not need the life support we give most gardens: fertilizer, dividing, regular watering. Compared to traditional garden plots, they increase carbon absorption, reduce stormwater runoff and boost habitat and biodiversity significantly.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了矩阵种植 (matrix planting)这一新型园艺设计方法。
课后课时作业(一)
136
解析:词义猜测题。根据第一段中的“Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and power tools ... to garden more like nature does.”可知,矩阵种植更像自然一样进行园艺,说明它避免使用化肥和电动工具。由此可推知,画线单词Eschewing意为“避免”。故选B。
4.What does the underlined word “Eschewing” in the first paragraph mean?
A.Running out of.
B.Keeping away from.
C.Putting up with.
D.Taking advantage of.
课后课时作业(一)

A.To control weeds in large gardens.
B.To bring in foreign species of plants.
C.To conserve soil and water resources.
D.To develop lowmaintenance parkland.

138
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中的“adding artistic flavors” “playing with color and form” “Beautiful yearround” “enjoy the smallest detail” “the sound of grasses” “the sculpture of oddlooking seed heads”可知,Piet Oudolf的花园具有艺术感,四季皆美,注重细节。由此可推知,它非常雅观。故选 C。

Let's take a minute to think about the water we use. The human body is 60% water and we need to drink lots of water to be healthy. When we are thirsty we just go to the kitchen and fill a glass with clean water.
__1__ For example, farmers, who produce the food we eat, use water to make the plants grow. When we turn on a light or switch on a TV or a computer we use energy and we need water to produce this energy.
The truth is that we are lucky enough to have clean water whenever we want, but this is not the case for many people around the world. __2__ That's around one in 10 people in the world. If we drink dirty water, we can catch diseases from the bacteria and become ill. Every year over 500,000 children die from diarrhea (腹泻) from dirty water.
课后课时作业(一)
141
That's around 1,400 children every day! Also, in some countries children walk many kilometres every day to get water. __3__ Therefore, they don't have time to learn how to read or write and don't get an education.
__4__ On this day every year, countries around the world hold events to educate people about the problems of dirty water and that clean water is something that everyone should have around the world. At one school in the UK, children between the ages of 10 and 15 walk 6 km with six litres of water. __5__ People give them money to do this and all the money helps get clean water to as many people as possible around the world.
A.We use water indirectly too.

A
But is renting fashion actually more environmentallyfriendly than buying it? If so, how much more? Journalist and author Elizabeth Cline investigated (调查) this question and concluded that it's not as sustainable as it seems.
Clothing rental is a hot new industry and retailers (零售商) are demanding to get on board in hopes of attracting green shopper.
课后课时作业(二)

Take shipping, for example, which has to go two ways if an item is rented—receiving and returning. Cline writes that consumer transportation has the second largest carbon footprint of our collective fashion habit after manufacturing.
She writes, “An item ordered online and then returned can send out 20 kilograms of carbon each way, and increases up to 50 kilograms for rush shipping. By comparison, the carbon impact of a pair of jeans purchased from a physical store and washed and worn at home is 33.4 kilograms, according to a 2015 study by Levi's.”
Then there's the burden of washing, which has to happen for every item when it's returned, regardless of whether or not it was worn. For most rental services, this usually

means dry cleaning, a high impact and polluting process. All the rental services that Cline looked into have replaced perchloroethylene (氯乙烯), a carcinogenic (致癌的) air pollutant, still used by 70 percent of US dry cleaners, with alternatives, although these aren't great either.
Lastly, Cline fears that rental services will increase our appetite for fast fashion, simply because it's so easily accessible. There's something called “share washing” that makes people waste more precisely because a product or service is shared and thus is regarded as more ecofriendly. Uber is one example of this, advertised as “a way to share rides and limit car ownership” and yet “it has been proven to discourage walking, bicycling, and public transportation use.”

Renting clothes is still preferable to buying them cheap and throwing them in the dustbin after a few wears, but we shouldn't let the availability of these services make us too satisfied. There's an even better step—that's wearing what is already in the closet.

It was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they
were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers had lived in the same way
for centuries.
Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frog's legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.
This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was catch them.
课后课时作业(二)
156
Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn't last long.
The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and there seemed to be more insects around lately.
The villagers decided that they couldn't just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides (杀虫剂) and medicines. Soon there was no money left.
课后课时作业(二)
157
Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadn't been useless. They had been doing an important job—eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging the crops and spreading diseases.
Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.

A Sweet Song
“Nothing will ever be the same again,” Ally whispered. She sank slowly into her father's favorite chair and stared at the small American flag on his desk. It was the flag which Chief Russell had given to her after the funeral last summer, when he hugged her and told her how proud the Police Department was of her dad's work for them. His tears had warmed Ally's cheeks; her own tears were still frozen inside her heart.

Ally looked at her father's picture on the bookcase. Dad was sitting in the middle of a stream, wet through but grinning proudly. “I miss you, Dad,” she said softly. By this time last year she had already taken dozens of pictures. Ever since she could remember, she and Dad had been a team, searching the woods behind the house each weekend for a glimpse of the special wood warbler (林中莺).
Ally reached for the first photo album she and Dad had put together. On the cover a tiny orange bird with blue gray wings and sharp black eyes peered out of the photo, her father had clipped from a local newspaper. Ally smiled, remembering the excited look on his face when he first showed her the pretty bird. “Ally, I bet if we search real hard, we'll see this little guy together some day. ”

They'd never spotted the warbler, but her father had an amazing way of making each outing seem special. Staying with Dad, Ally felt comfortable. “If only I could get that good feeling back,” she thought, sighing.
Staring at the bird, suddenly, she knew exactly what she had to do. Grabbing the little flag, she placed her camera around her neck and hurried outside. Ally stuck the flag among the flowers in the garden. “Please let me see the warbler,” she murmured to herself. She gave her worried Mom a kiss and then set off into the woods.

Familiar smells of the earth rose up to greet her. Some things never change, Ally thought. Quickening her pace, she hurried to the rock by the stream where she and her father used to sit and eat lunch. She sat on it, with her face toward the sun. Overhead the sky was filled with birds busily diving to gather dried grass to place in their nests. Their sweet songs echoed throughout the woods. Ally felt content for the first time in a long while. She could almost hear her father's laughter in the gentle breeze as she listened to the sweet song of the special bird. All too soon, the sun disappeared behind thick gray clouds.

Determined to start out again the next morning, she was about to head home when a ringing birdsong floated down to her. It was prettier than any she had heard before. An excited feeling bubbled up inside Ally as she searched the sky. A flash of orange dashed down and rested on a nearby branch. For a moment Ally couldn't believe her eyes, but it was true. The tiny wood warbler just sat there, looking around, as if it were waiting for something. Ally blinked back tears. “Thanks, Dad,” she whispered slowly lifting her camera and taking careful aim. “Things will be different without you. I'll always miss our times together, but I feel better now.”
