未再听到他的消息,以致人们认为他已死去了。
(2)引导目的状语从句,意为“为了,以便”,通常从句中用may,might,can,could等情态动词。

2. unless的用法
1). unless作连词,意为“除非;如果不”,引导条件状语从句,常可以与if...not...句型互换。
Don’t go outdoors unless you take an umbrella.=Don’t go outdoors if you don’t take an umbrella.除非你带伞,否则不要出门。
练习:If we don’t talk to someone, we will certainly feel worse.
______________________________________________________
Unless we talk to someone, we will certainly feel worse.
2). 在含有unless引导的状语从句的主从复合句中,如果主句为一般将来时,从句通常用一般现在时,即“主将从现”。

如果明天不下雨,我们就去野营。

3. as soon as 的用法
as soon as意为“一······就······”,引导时间状语从句,含有该从句的主从复合句表示从句的动作一发生,主句的动作马上发生,强调动作的紧密性。如果主句为一般将来时,从句要用一般现在时。即遵循“主将从现”的原则。

Practice
Do you know what culture shock is? You may feel it when you experience a new culture, because the new culture is different from your own
you feel . For example, I experienced this I got off the plane in Peru last year. People were standing on my right and left, even though there was plenty of space on the bus! That was really to me. In Germany, people usually like more personal space, and we don’t stand close to someone we know them very well. But once I was used to it, I became more curious and in learning about the culture there. It’s so to discover cultural differences like this!
