2014年高三英语 阅读复习第五期 计划愿望12【导读】什么礼物最珍贵？关键是满足人的口味和兴趣。What makes a gift special? Is it the price you see on the gift receipt? Or is it the look on the recipient's face when they receive it that determines the true value? What gift is worth the most?This Christmas I was debating what to give my father. My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything. I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked. The message was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming, and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower, a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky, inspired me. My dad had been reciting those words to me since 1 was a kid. That may even be the reason why 1 love writing. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe; my dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it. The poem was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood, I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.【文章大意】本文通过讲述作者如何为父亲选礼物的事情说明了一个道理，即礼物要发自内心的才是最有价值的。【篇章结构】段落关键词大意推测第一部分P1What gift is worth the most?什么礼物珍贵第二部分P2-3dad is a hard person to buy；a photo of a flower；created my gift；another poem came to mind；a gift that my father would truly appreciate.给父亲准备礼物第三部分P4the look on my dad's face，the perfect gift父亲对礼物满意【信息提取】1.The idea for a special gift began to form when the author was_ A. doing shoppingB. having a debateC. reading a messageD. leaving for Wyoming2.The author's inspiration for the gift came from_ .A. a photo of a flowerB. a story about a kidC. a call from the motherD. a text about Christmas3.The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refers to a poem by_ A. the fatherB. the authorC.

I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked.本句是when 引导的时间状语从句，主句I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him的简单句是I pulled out my phone, 而to read a text message为目的状语，saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him为现在分词做伴随状语。2. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood,本句是as 引导的时间状语从句， 在从句中passing through the printer,是现在分词短语做伴随状语，主句中coloring with words为the white paper 的后置定语，that shaped my childhood,是words 的定语从句。3. The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.本句是the minute “一，就“的时间状语从句，在从句中含有as 引导的时间状语从句，swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame,动词的现在分词和过去分词做those 的后置定语， 主句是I knew 的宾语从句。【语法点滴】As引导的从句一、as用作关系代词引导定语从句 1. as 引导非限制性定语从句，一般不指代某个具体的名词或代词，而是代表整个主句或主句的一部分。这种从句可放在主句之前，也可以放在主句之后，有时还可以放在主句的中间。如： As is reported in the newspapers, talks between the two countries are making progress. 正如在报纸上所报道的，两国间的谈判有所进展。 Grammar is not a set of dead rules, as has been said above. 如上所说，语法不是一套死条文。 Spiders are not insects, as many people think, nor even nearly related to them. 蜘蛛不是昆虫，尽管许多人都这样认为，它甚至与昆虫几乎没有联系。 2. as 引导限制性定语从句，主要用于the sameas（与相同），suchas（像一样），asas（与一样）。如： She knew he felt just the same as she did. 她知道他的感受和她一样。 Such a man with a good temper as Mr. Li is is easy to get along with. 像李先生这样好脾气的人是容易相处的。 He smokes as expensive a cigarette as he can afford. 他抽一种他买得起的最贵的烟。 二、as作为从属连词引导时间状语从句 表示“当的时候”或“一边一边”，强调主句的动作和从句的动作同时发生。如： I saw him as he was getting off the bus. 当他下公共汽车的时候我看见了他。 The boy was singing a popular song as he was bicycling. 这男孩边骑车边唱歌。 As she grew older, she became less active. 当她长大一点的时候，就变得不那么活泼了。 三、as作为从属连词引导原因状语从句 as 引导的原因状语从句常放在主句前，表示“因为，由于”。如： As she is a model teacher, she gives a good example to others. 因为她是一名模范教师，她给其他人树立了一个好的典范。 As he wasnt ready in time, we went to the cinema without him. 由于他没有及时准备好，我们就去看电影了，没有等他。 四、as作为从属连词，引导让步状语从句 as引导让步状语从句比较特别，它要求将主语和谓语或谓语的一部分倒装。如： Old as he is, he is still full of energy. 尽管年纪大了，但他依然精力充沛。 Try as she may, she never succeeds. 尽管她很努力，但总是不成功。 Much as I admire Mr. Wang as a poet, I dont like him as a man. 尽管我喜欢王先生的诗歌，但我不喜欢他的为人。 注：当倒装后置于句首的名词为单数可数名词时，习惯上不带冠词。如： Boy as he was, he was made king. 尽管他还是个孩子，却被立为国王了。 五、与其他词搭配使用构成从属连词引导从句 1. as if / as though。表示“好像，仿佛”，引导表语从句或方式状语从句。如： It looks as if / as though it is going to snow. 看起来要下雪啦。 He looks as if / as though he had seen a ghost. 他的脸色看起来好像他看见了鬼。 He talks as if /as though he knew everything about it. 他说话的口气好像他已经全部都知道了。 2. as so long as。“只要”，引导条件状语从句。如： As So long as you can keep away from them, you will be safe. 只要你能远离他们，你就安全了。5
