2:And then they're going to go on a world tour in which they will perform in ten different cities .

(2)在运用“介词+which ”引导定语从句时,要注意介词的选用。一要注意介词与先行词的搭配关系,二要注意介词与句中动词的搭配关系。
l've bought a cell phone with which l can send short messages .我买了一部手机,用它我可以发短信。
This is a problem to which you should pay much attention .这是一个你应该多加注意的问题。(pay attention to 是固定搭配)
(3)go on a world tour “进行世界巡回演出”,go on =have 即此短语可改成have a world tour .
3:Be sure not to miss them if they come to a city neat you ---if you can get tickets ,that is .
如果他们到了离你很近的城市,如果你能买到票,一定不要错过他们的演出。
精讲:(1)be sure to do sth .“一定去做某事”,否定形式为be sure not to do sth 。“一定不要做某事”

(2)两个if 引导的都是条件状语从句,条件状语从句常用一般现在时表示将来。

你知道吗?他们将收入的一半捐赠给无家可归的儿童的慈善机构了。
精讲:(1)give sth .to sb =give sb.sth “给某人某物”。因此,此举可改为"...they gave a charity for homeless children half of the money they made ?"
(2)half of 意为“一半,二分之一”,相当于一个分数,做主语时,其谓语动词的单复数形式取决于其所修饰的名词的数。
eg:Half of the students have gone to the playground .一半的学生去操场了。
Half of the money has been used up so for .到目前为止,一半的钱已经花完了 |
