Activity 4 Learning about the new language items

1. Whichever and whatever you like, there is an incredible theme park that will appeal to you!

无论你喜欢哪一个，无论你喜欢什么，总会有一个奇妙无比的主题公园让你流连忘返！

1) 此句为主从复合句。句中“Whichever and whatever you like”为让步状语从句。whichever 无论哪个，无论哪些，引导让步状语从句，相当于no matter which; whatever 无论什么，引导让步状语从句，相当于no matter what。whichever和whatever两者的区别：whichever是在某范围内做出选择；whatever

没有范围限制。“疑问词-ever”如whatever，whichever，who(m)ever既可引导让步状语从句，又可引导名词性从句；no matter what，no matter which，no matter who(m)只能引导让步状语从句。

e.g. What’s more, free printer is always ready whenever you need to print essays.

此外，无论何时你需要打印论文，免费打印机都随时可用。

As far as I’m concerned, whatever method suits us best is a good choice.
