Studythenotestothedifficultsentences:

1.InEurope，whereitbegan，carnivalwasfollowedbyfortydayswithoutmeat,aspeoplepreparedfortheChristianfestivalofEaster.在狂欢节起源的欧洲，狂欢节过后四十天都不吃肉，因为人们在准备基督徒的复活节活动。

where引导的是非限制性地点定语从句，as引导的原因状语从句。

关系副词when,where,why的含义相当于"介词+which"结构，因此常常和"介词+which"结构交替使用。

例如：

Thereareoccasionswhen（onwhich）onemustyield.任何人都有不得不屈服的时候。

Beijingistheplacewhere（inwhich）Iwasborn.北京是我的出生地。

Isthisthereasonwhy（forwhich）herefusedouroffer?

2.Astimepassed,however,thecarnivalperiodwasextended,sothatitbeganjustafterChristmas.随着时间推移，狂欢节的时间延续了，这样在圣诞节过后它就开始了。

sothat既可引导结果从句也可引导目的从句，但结果从句表示事实，通常不含情态动词；目的从句表示希望或想要实现的事实，通常含有情态动词，如：

Hegotupearlysothathecaughtthetrain.（结果）Hegotupearlysothathecould（might）catchthetrain.（目的）

3.Manycrimeswentunpunished.许多罪行没有受到惩罚。

在主语是物的句子里，有些动词和主动形式可以表示被动意义。

如：

sell,read,feel,write,,wash,open,cook,keep,cut,feel,blow,measure,lick,run,begin,,start,shut等。

4.Theirusewaslimitedbylaws,thefirstofwhichdatesbacktothefourteenthcentury.面具的使用受到法律的限制，最初的法律可以追溯到十四世纪。

"介词+关系代词"引导的定语从句常见的有以下几种结构:

一,"介词+关系代词".例如:

TheoldOlympicGamesfromwhichthemoderngamescamebeganaroundtheyear776BCinGreece.古代奥运会于公元前776年始于希腊,现代奥运会就起源于那里.二,"名词+介词+关系代词".这种结构常可替换为"whose+名词"结构.例如:

Wearegoingtobuildarailwaythebaseofwhichmustbecompletedwithinthisyear.（=wearegoingtobuildarailwaywhosebasemustbecompletedthisyear.）我们要修建一条铁路,这条铁路的路基必须在今年内完成.三,"数字+介词+关系代词".例如:

LastSundayIboughtsomebooksfromthebookstore,threeofwhichwereEnglishnovels.上个星期天,我从书店买回几本书,其中三本是英文小说.四,"代词+介词
