[1]when they were children是由when引导的宾语从句，作介词from的宾语。 2That is why Letters from Father Christmas could be the perfect book for those who regard Christmas as③ a special time of year．[2]The man who wrote 学生用书第36页 these letters is one of the most famous names in English literature④—J.R.R.Tolkien，author of The Lord of the Rings.The letters were Tolkien's way of keeping Father Christmas alive for his four children，over a period of more than twenty years. [2]本句是“That is why...”结构，意为“那就是……的原因”，why在此引导表语从句，表语从句中又含有who引导的定语从句，修饰先行词 those，句中的could表示一种不确定的语气。 3Every Christmas，an envelope⑤ with a North Pole⑥ stamp arrived.It was addressed⑦to Tolkien's children.Who could it be from？The children must have been very excited as they opened it [3].Inside，they would find a handwritten letter⑧ from Father Christmas.The letters were also beautifully illustrated⑨—each must have taken its true author，Tolkien，a long time to complete.[4] [3]画线部分是as引导的时间状语从句，as 意为“当……时候”。 [4]本句是“sth takes sb some time to do”句式。句中的“must have taken”是“must have done”结构，表示对已发生事情的肯定推测，意为“肯定做了某事”。 4The letters told wonderful stories about Father Christmas's life and adventures at the North Pole.A regular⑩ character in the letters was Polar⑪ Bear，who once climbed the North Pole (an actual pole in this case⑫)and fell through the roof⑬ of Father Christmas's house [5].In another letter，Father Christmas complained⑭ about how he could not stop his helpers playing⑮ games with the toys instead of wrapping them up⑯.Interestingly，the letters did not contain the usual warnings⑰ to children that they might not receive their presents if they were not good[6].The letters did，however，change as Tolkien's children got older[7]： ...but if you find that not many of the things you asked for have come，and not perhaps quite as many as sometimes，remember that this Christmas all over the world there are a terrible number of⑱ poor and starving⑲ people．[8] [5]此处是who引导的非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词Polar Bear，who在定语从句中作主语。在这里，who采用了拟人的修辞手法。 [6]此处是that引导的同位语从句，说明the usual warnings 的具体内容。该同位语从句被介词短语to children分隔开了。 [7]此处助动词did用于强调谓语。 [8]本句的主句是祈使句remember that...starving people，其中“that...starving people”是宾语从句；“if you find...as many as sometimes”是由连接词if引导的条件状语从句，在这个从句中含有两个由连接词that引导的并列宾语从句，第二个宾语从句“not perhaps quite as many as sometimes”是一个省略句，其完整形式为“that not perhaps quite as many as you asked for have come sometimes”。 学生用书第37页 5Letters from Father Christmas tells us that as well as⑳ enjoying the adventures of Father Christmas，Polar Bear and other characters at the North Pole，we can all share the true spirit of giving at Christmas time.By expressing love for his children in such a special way，Tolkien may indeed have been the real Father Christmas[9]. [9]may have done表示立足于现在，对过去发生的事情的推测，意为“可能做了某事”。 ◎ 真正的圣诞老人 1许多人仍然记得孩童时代圣诞老人的魔法。作为父母，他们尽力让那样的魔法在孩子的生活里延续下去。 2那就是对于那些将圣诞节看作一年中特殊时刻的人来说，《圣诞老人书信集》可能是一本完美图书的原因。书写这些信件的人是英国最著名的文学家之一——J.R.R.托尔金，《指环王》的作者。这些信是托尔金在二十多年的时间里为他的四个孩子保留圣诞老人的方式。 3每年的圣诞节，一封贴着北极邮票的信都会寄来。这是寄给托尔金的孩子们的。它是谁寄来的呢？孩子们打开信的时候一定很兴奋。在信封里面，他们会发现一封来自圣诞老人的手写信。这些信都有漂亮的插图——每一个插图一定花了其真正的作者——托尔金很长时间完成。 4这些信讲述了圣诞老人在北极的生活和冒险的精彩故事。信中的常规角色是北极熊，他曾爬到北极柱(这里是一根真实的柱子)，然后从圣诞老人家的屋顶上掉了下去。在另一封信中，圣诞老人抱怨说，他那些助手们非但没有把玩具包装起来，反而拿着玩具玩起了游戏，他怎么也没办法让他们停下来。有趣的是，信里并没有那些常见的对孩子的警告，比如表现不好就可能得不到礼物之类的话。不过，随着托尔金的孩子们逐渐长大，信(的内容)也的确发生了变化： ……但是，如果你发现自己并没有得到很多你想要的东西，有时甚至所获无几，请你记住，在这个圣诞节，世界上还有很多贫穷和饥饿的人。 5《圣诞老人书信集》告诉我们，在欣赏圣诞老人、北极熊和在北极其他角色的冒险故事之余，也可以共同分享圣诞节真正的给予精神。托尔金以这样的特殊方式表达了对他孩子的爱，或许他确实就是真正的圣诞老人。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
