Suggested answers:

1.( b,c )

2.( a and d don’t , b and c do .because the meaning stands without the extra clauses)

3.The ones with the extra information

Step 2 Explanations:

限制性与非限制性定语从句

(1) 限制性定语从句对所修饰词的意思加以限制，表示“……的人（或东西）”，限制性定语从句描述的是主句不可缺少的一部分；非限制性定语从句对所修饰的词没有限制词义的作用，而只是补充一些说明，通常都有一个逗号把它和句子的其他部分分开，在译成中文时，这个从句常译成一个并列句。如：

He is the man (who / that / whom) you’ve been expecting to meet.

他就是你一直想见的那个人。

This is Mr Smith, whom / who you’ve been expecting to meet.

这位是史密斯先生，你一直想见的那个人。

(2) 在限制性定语从句中，that可代替who / whom / which，作宾语时可省略；在非限制性定语从句中，不能用that引导，关系代词作宾语时也不能省略。如：

The person (that / whom) I just referred to is Tom.

There are 30 chairs in the hall, most of which are new.

(4) 当先行词是专有名词或由物主代词和指示代词修饰时，其后的定语从句通常是非限制性的。如：

Charles Smith, who was my former teacher, retired last year.

My house, which I bought last year, has got a lovely garden.

This novel, which I have read three times, is very touching.

(5) 非限制性定语从句还能将整个主句作为先行词, 对其进行修饰, 这时从句谓语动词要用第三人称单数。如：

My son failed again in the exam, which made me very angry.

注意：

(1) 关系代词that和关系副词why不能引导非限制性定语从句。

(2) as或which引导的非限制性定语从句，可以修饰整个主句或主句的一部分。as引导的定语从句还可以放在主句之前，而which 引导的非限制性定语从句要放在句末。如：

As has been announced, we should have our final exams next month.

We shall have our final exams next month, as / which has been announced.

(3) as可引导定语从句时，意为“正如”，which引导时，常意为“这就是……。如：

As we know, smoking is harmful to one’s health.

He has a son who likes to play football.

试比较以下两个句子在意义上的不同：

The college students who knew the truth left the small town.

The college students, who knew the truth, left the small town.

前一句中有一个限制性定语从句，它对名词的范围作了一定的限制。这个句子的意思是“只有那些知道事实真相的大学生离开了小镇”，并暗示那些不知道事实真相的大学生仍然还留在小镇上。后一句中有一个非限制性定语从句，它对前面的名词没有起到任何限制作用，这句话暗含的意思是：“大学生们都知道了事实真相并离开了小镇。”

再比较下面两个句子：

He has a son who works in a hospital. (限定性)

他有一个在医院工作的儿子。（可能还有别的儿子，不在医院工作）

He has a son, who works in a hospital. (非限定性)

他有一个儿子，在医院工作。

Module 6 Old and New I. 阅读理解 A Most people who move to a foreign country or culture may go through some form of culture shock，and its degree is determined by the differences between cultures，the anxiety to adapt to a new culture and the familiarity with a new culture，etc.If you go，for example，to a culture that is far different from your own，you’re likely to experience culture shock more sharply than those who move to a new culture knowing the language and the custom of it. It is important to understand and learn how to deal with culture shock if you are to adapt successfully to your new home’s cultures.There are four general stages of cultural adjustment，and being aware of them helps you understand that culture shock won’t last long.It’s just a process you a re going through rather than a constant situation. The first stage is usually referred to as “the honeymoon stage”．Upon arriving in a new environment，you’ll be interested in the new culture.Everything will seem thrilling and everyone will seem friendly and helpful.During this stage you are merely taking in these impressions passively. But it isn’t long before the honeymoon stage gives way to the second stage—“the withdrawal stage”．The excitement you felt before is gone and problems arise.The language is hard to learn，people are unusual and unpredictable，friends，are hard to make，and simple things like shopping and going to the bank are challenges.It is at this stage that you are likely to feel anxious and homesick，and you will probably find yourself complaining about the new cu lture or country.This is the stage called “culture shock”． At some point，if you can manage it well，you’ll begin the transition into the next stage，“the recovery stage”，in which you’ll feel more confident functioning in the new culture.Customs and traditions are clearer and easier to understand.At this stage，you’ll deal with new challenges with humor rather than anxiety. 1.According to the passage，culture shock can be________. A．dealt with more easily for some people B．reduced by learning the language alone C．avoided by knowing adjustment stages D．got rid of by learning just the custom 2．“The honeymoon stage” here refers to________. A．the first month after the wedding B．the period of excitement C．the stage of adaptation D．the holiday for a newly-married couple 3．Which of the following doesn’t belong to the second stage? A．Becoming upset. B．Missing family. C．Feeling confident. D．Making complaints. 4．What would be probably discussed in the following paragraph?

【导读】《大卫·科波菲尔》是英国小说家查尔斯·狄更斯创作的长篇小说，被称为他“心中最宠爱的孩子”，于１8４9至１8５0年间，分二十个部分逐月发表。全书采用第一人称叙事，融进了作者本人的许多生活经历，反映了狄更斯希望人间充满善良正义的理想。 David Copperfieid（excerpt） That was how I was born.My early childhood was extremely happy，as my beautiful mother and kind Peggotty took care of me.But when I was about eight，a shadow passed over my happiness.My mother often went out walking，in her best clothes，with a gentleman called Mr Murdstone.He had black hair，a big black moustache and an unpleasant smile，and seemed to be very fond of my mother.But I knew that Peggotty did not like him. A few months later Peggotty told me that my mother was going to have a short holiday with some friends.Meanwhile Peggotty and I would go to stay with her brother Daniel in Yarmouth，on the east coast，for two weeks.I was very excited when we climbed into the cart，although it was sad saying goodbye to my mother.Mr Murdstone was at her shoulder，waving goodbye，as the driver called to his horse，and we drove out of the village. When we got down from the cart in Yarmouth，after our journey，Peggotty said，“That's the house，Master DaviＤ．” I looked all round，but could only see an old ship on the sanＤ．“Is that—that your brother's house？”I asked in delight.And when we reached it，I saw it had doors and windows and a chimney，just like a real house.I could not imagine a nicer place to live.Everything was clean and tidy，and smelt of fish.Now I was introduced to the Peggotty family.There was Daniel Peggotty，a kind old sailor.Although he was not married，he had adopted two orphans，who lived with him and called him Uncle.Ham Peggotty was a large young man with a gentle smile，and Emily was a beautiful，blue-eyed little girl.They all welcomed Peggotty and me warmly. 大卫·科波菲尔（节选） 就这样我来到了世上。孩提时的我非常幸福，因为有我美丽的母亲和善良的辟果提照顾我。然而，在
