【重点句型讲解】

   1. Howard Carter did not go to school but was taught to draw by his father, who was an artist.

   a. Upon entering the tomb，Carter’s lucky pet bird, which had led him to the place, was eaten by a snake.

   b. Then a few months after Carter had opened the tomb，Lord Carnarvon, who was also present when the tomb was opened, fell ill with a fever and died in Egypt.

   c. Others believe that they are the result of the mummy’s curse, which punished those who enter the resting place of the dead.

   “who was an artist; which had led him to the place; who was also present”是非限制性定语从句，在句子中起到补充说明的作用，去掉了不会影响主要意义，通常用逗号与它的先行词分开。引导非限制性定语从句的词有which；who；whose；whom；when；where；as；介词+whom／which；非限制性定语从句不能用that引导。例如：

   The boys, whose football was missing，were very sad.

   那些丢了足球的男孩很伤心。

   Mary Smith, who is in the office, wants to meet you.

   在办公室的Mary Smith想见你。

   I don’t know the village，where our English teacher was born.

   As we know，the boy’s pronunciation is the best in our class.

   据我们所知，这个男孩的发音是我们班里最好的。

   2.It was the most important tomb that had ever been found.

   It be+被强调的部分+that／who…

   此句型为强调句型。掌握该句型的关键在于把握强调句型的判断标准，即去掉强调句式结构或经过语序相应调整后，原句仍然成立。这也是强调句型与定语从句及其他句式的重要区别之一。例如：

   It was because he was ill that he did not come to see you.

   因为他病了，所以他没能来看你。

   3. Upon entering the tomb, Carter’s lucky pet bird，which had led him to the place，was eaten by a snake.

   George Gould, a friend of Carnarvon, went to Egypt after hearing of his death.

   句中的“ing-form”短语用作时间状语。

   on／upon doing sth. =as soon as意思是“一做什么事就……”；如句中Upon entering the tomb; As soon as Carter’s lucky pet bird entered the tomb。

   On hearing the news, I changed my plan.

   一听到这个消息，我改变了计划。

   4. When a tomb is opened, fresh air disturbs the viruses. If breathed in, illness or even death can result.

   If breathed in = If the viruses are breathed in，在句子中作条件状语，这种由连词加过去分词的结构也可以省去连词。
