arefoundinAmerica.1.cat-like

→doglike;lifelikePandas

are

large

cat-like

animals

which

are

found

in

Asia.（pandan.熊猫）2.which引导一个定语从句，先行词为animal所以用which，当然也可以用thatPandas

are

large

cat-like

animals

which/that

are

found

in

Asia.PS：定语从句只是对于被修饰词的补充说明、修饰--定语从句的引导词：--指人：主语who；宾语who,whom；定语

whose--指物：that（也可以指人）/which--时间状语：when/地点状语：where/原因状语：why

Pumasarelarge,cat-likeanimalswhich

arefoundinAmerica.3.arefound;这里be+done表被动语态

译为“被”发现（2）When

reportscameintoLondonZoothatawildpumahadbeenspotted

forty-fivemilessouthofLondon,theywerenottaken

seriously.1.这里that引导一个同位语从句,下划线的内容就是就是那个reports,PS：同位语从句的引导词：--名词(做主语、宾语等)：关系词用that而不是which--时间：when；

地点：where--定语从句中没有what这个关系词，但what可以引导同位语从句--An

idea

came

to

her

that

she

might

do

the

experiment

in

another

way.--I

have

no

idea

what

has

happened

to

him。（2）When

reportscameintoLondonZoothatawildpumahadbeenspotted

forty-fivemilessouthofLondon,theywerenottaken

seriously.2.hadbeenspotted过去完成时的被动语态3.spotv.看见，注意到4.句中的they值得注意一下，they指代的是那些reports5.werenottaken此处用了过去式的被动语态6.takesomethingseriously认真对待（3）However,astheevidencebegantoaccumulate,expertsfromthe

Zoofeltobligedtoinvestigate,forthedescriptionsgivenbypeople1whoclaimedtohaveseenthepumawereextraordinarilysimilar.1.Howeveradv.然而(起转折作用)，由此作用的词还有but,yet,while,nevertheless,etc.2.As连词：随着,当...之时3.feelobligedtodosth觉得有责任、义务去做....Ifeltobligedtosharethehousework.4.for这译为因为，同意意思的词有because,as,since.但是

不是都能混用的5..given过去分词做后置定语：动词非谓语的一种形式，表被动--thedescriptionsgivenbypeople--thestorytoldbythesailor(n.海员,水手,船员)--abookwrittenbyLuxun6.who引导定语从句7.刚刚提到given是个非谓语的形式，所以were才是真正的谓语动词。把who引导后的下划线的整个句子去掉

就清晰了（4）

pickingblackberriessaw‘alargecat’onlyfiveyardsawayfromher.1.Whereawomanpicking…定语从句，where=inwhich,当从句的谓语动词搭配先行词需要介词时，地点就用where，时间就用when,原因就用why.ThisistheroomwhereIwasborn.→bornintheroomIwillneverforgetthedaywhenImetyou.→metyouonthedayThisisthereasonwhyshewaslate.---lateforthereason
