Sentence-learningTranslatethefollowingsentencesintoChinese.1.Buildingtheterracesthereforemeantthattheycouldincreasetheareasinwhichtheycouldgrowrice.

[句式分析]

此句是主从复合句。Buildingtheterraces是动名词短语作主语；meant是谓语；that引导宾语从句，在从句中inwhich相当于where，引导定语从句，修饰前面的名词theareas。尝试翻译：________________________________________________________因此，建造梯田意味着他们能够扩大水稻的种植面积。2.Butperhapswhatismostsignificantisthewayinwhichpeoplehaveworkedinharmonywithnaturetomaketheseterracesandgrowrice.[句式分析]

此句是主从复合句。whatismostsignificant是what引导的主语从句，what在从句中作主语；is是系动词；theway作表语，后面是inwhich引导的定语从句，inwhich在此相当于that，还可以省略。尝试翻译：_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________但也许最有意义的是人与自然和谐相处建造梯田并种植水稻的方式。3.Duringtherainyseason，itisalongthesewaterwaysthatrainwatermovesdownthemountainsandintotheterraces.[句式分析]

此句是强调句型，强调的是介词短语alongthesewaterways，在句中作方式状语。尝试翻译：________________________________________________________在雨季，雨水会沿着这些水道从山上流下进入梯田。4.Althoughmoderntechnologycouldhelpproducemorecrops，theseterracesstillmeanalottothelocalpeopleforwhomtraditionsholdmuchvalue.[句式分析]

此句是主从复合句。Although引导让步状语从句，相当于though/while；主句中forwhomtraditionsholdmuchvalue是“介词＋关系代词”引导的定语从句；holdmuchvalue的意思是“很重要，有价值”。尝试翻译：_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________尽管现代技术可以帮助提高农作物产量，但这些梯田对珍视传统的当地人来说仍然意义重大。5.Today，theLongjiRiceTerracesattractthousandsofvisitorswhocometoadmirethisgreatwondercreatedbypeopleandnatureworkingtogether.[句式分析]

此句是主从复合句。who引导定语从句，修饰前面的名词visitors；createdbypeopleandnatureworkingtogether是过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰前面的名词wonder；workingtogether是现在分词短语作后置定语，修饰peopleandnature。尝试翻译：_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________今天，龙脊水稻梯田吸引着成千上万的游客来欣赏这由人类与自然共同创造的伟大奇观。StepⅥ
