2. 定语从句
2.1 学习定语从句,要了解定语从句放在哪儿,还要了解用哪个关系代词。
英语的定语从句要放在被修饰词的后面。 I started looking after other children whose parents went out to work. 我开始照看那些父母外出工作的孩子。
从句中最常用的关系代词是 whose, who, that 和which。这些词起的是关联作用。whose,―……的‖,who指的是被修饰的这个人,that可以表示被修饰的人或物,which指被修饰的物。who和which在从句中做主语时关系代词不能省略。
(1)I listened to journalists who were excited about the changes in Russia. 我听到别的记者兴奋地谈论俄国发生的变化。

Do you know the girl__________ I am meeting
tonight?
Do you know the girl who I am meeting tonight? = Do you know the girl that I am meeting tonight? = Do you know the girl I am meeting tonight?
3. 现在进行时
3.1 现在进行时可以表示说话的此时此刻发生的事情,也可以表示最近的将来,说明最近的打算,意图和安排等。在这样的句子中常可以有表达将来时间的短语。
比如next week, next month, a week tomorrow, in three days’time等。

(2)Tomorrow I’m meeting Mr Jones. 明天我要与Jones先生会面。
(3)A week tomorrow I’m returning to London. 从明天算起一周后我将回到伦敦。
3.2 谈论将来,还可以用be going to do sth这个句式。be going to do sth 主要用于表达意图,主观的打算,但用现在进行时则强调客观上已经安排好的事情。
(1)We’re flying to New York tomorrow. 我们定于在明天飞往纽约。
(2)We are going to do some shopping there. 我们打算在那儿买点东西。
