（1）本句中有兩個(gè)非限制性定語從句：①where…centigrade修飾先行詞Arctic north，②which…police修飾先行詞the 8,892-kiilometre-long border。例如：
1）The will fly to Kunming, _where__ they plan to stay for two or three days.

4.（1）Montreal, a port in the province of Quebec, is the second largest city in Canada, and also the second largest French-speaking city in the world, Paris being the largest.蒙特利爾，魁北克省內(nèi)的港口城市，是加拿大第二大城市，也是世界上僅次于巴黎的第二大法語城市。
（2）As a modern city, Montreal has colourful nightlife, with many restaurants and clubs, as well as cultural and street festivals to ensure that no visitor is ever bored.作為一座現(xiàn)代化的城市，蒙特利爾有多彩的夜生活，有許多飯店和俱樂部以及文化性的和街頭性的節(jié)慶活動(dòng)，絕對(duì)不會(huì)讓任何游客感到厭倦。
句（1）中的Paris being the largest是一個(gè)獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)。獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)是“非謂語動(dòng)詞”的一種形式，句（2）中的with…to ensure that…也是一種獨(dú)立主格形式，或稱“with復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)”。這兩種結(jié)構(gòu)分別歸納如下：
①“名（代）+介詞”作獨(dú)立結(jié)構(gòu)，在句中可作狀語，例如課文中的這一句：
There are old buildings, churches, narrow streets and alleys, _all alongside glass and steel and concrete skyscrapers reading upwards._城里有古老的建筑、教堂、狹窄的街道和小巷，這些全都與用玻璃和鋼筋混凝土建成的摩天大樓靠在一起。
獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)主要起狀語作用，相當(dāng)于一個(gè)狀語從句，多用來表示行為、方式、伴隨等情況，有時(shí)也可用來表示時(shí)間、原因、條件等情況。
②with引導(dǎo)的獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)通常為：
With +名詞（代詞）+介詞短語/形容詞/副詞/名詞/現(xiàn)在分詞/過去分詞/不定式。例如：
1）He likes sleeping with his door _open______/ with the light __burning__.
他喜歡開著門睡覺/開著燈睡覺。
2）With a book _in his hand___, he came in. 他手里拿著一本書走了進(jìn)來。
5.Cricket is usually considered a summer sport in Australia, and throughout the country, you will see players dressed all in white, hitting and chasing the ball up and down the pitch.（P15）在澳大利亞板球通常被認(rèn)為是一項(xiàng)夏季運(yùn)動(dòng)。在全國各地，你會(huì)看到全身穿著白色球衣的球員在運(yùn)動(dòng)場(chǎng)上來回跑動(dòng)、爭(zhēng)搶擊球。

①v. 考慮consider doing sth考慮做某事。例如：
We are considering how to go to Canada. 我們正考慮如何去加拿大。
Have you _considered buying___ a house of your own?你考慮過買一套自己的房子嗎？
注意：此時(shí)，consider 后不能直接跟動(dòng)詞不定式作賓語。
②v. 認(rèn)為，把……看做是……
搭配：consider sb/ sth as…=consider sb/ sth to be…=consider sb/ sth adj./n. 例如：

You may consider me _as to be your friend___, for we are all young people.

6. So, while a high percentage of Australians may be people who watch sports rather than do them, as far as most of its population is concerned, it is indeed a great sporting nation！（P15）所以，雖然很大一部分澳大利亞人只觀看體育比賽，而不直接參與，但就關(guān)注體 育的大多數(shù)人口而言，澳大利亞的確是一個(gè)運(yùn)動(dòng)大國。
