状语从句。若主句为一般将来时,从句常用一
A.since
B.if
C.unless

主要内容,是文章/段落的核心。归纳主旨常

用的方法:

about ourselves and the world.
1.分清主次,抓住主干,找出主题句
Special moments are like treasures...
主题句通常位于开头或结尾。主题句在
Businesses also use special moments...
开头时,后面往往用for example、first、that
In the end,special moments are everywhere.
is、for one thing等来论证或阐述。主题句在
They don't need money or planningjust a little
结尾时,常用so、as a result、that is why等来
care.A kind word,a smile,or a small surprise
总结或归纳。

2.理清层次关系,选出最佳标题
moments-they make life worth living
标题是文章/段落中心思想的体现,一般
49.What is the passage mainly about?
短小精悍、概括性强。因此,选择标题时要在
