(1)“goingthroughthetests”为现在分词短语作伴随状语。

goafter追寻;追踪;设法得到goahead前进
goagainst背叛;违背;违反;不利于gowrong出故障
goinfor爱好;酷爱;从事goby(指时间)过去

since引导时间状语从句。3.That'swhyI'mbringingonehere.
所以我要带过来一只。
why引导表语从句。4.Ithinkit'sthefirstoneeverontheMoon.

(1)本句是一个复合句,其中and连接两个并列句,which引导非限制性定语从句,sothat引导结果状语从句。(2)southward是副词,意为“向南方”。以-ward结尾的副词都有“向……方向”的意思,如forward意为“向前”,northward意为“向北方”。7.Theslopewasagentleoneandeventheweightofthespacesuitcouldn'tkeepJimmyfromracingupitinafloatinghop

hewas采用了倒装句式,though引导让步状语从句时句子可用正常语序,也可把表语、状语或谓语动词提前构成倒装。提前的名词前不带冠词;“whodidn'tneeda
spacesuit,
andhadfourlegsandtendonsofsteel”为非限制性定语从句,who是关系代词,在定语从句中作主语,指代主句的宾语。10.Jimmycouldn'tgowrongwhileRobuttwasaround,trippinghimwhenhewastooneararock,orjumpingonhimtoshowhowmuchhelovedhim,orcirclingaroundandsqueakinglowandscaredwhenJimmyhidbehindarock,whenallthetimeRobuttknewwellenoughwherehewas.
