The next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy.Still，I had promised，and so I drove there.When I finally walked into Carolyn’s house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren，I said“Forget the daffodils，Carolyn！The road is invisible(看不见的)in the cloud and fog，and there is nothing in the world except you and these children that I want to see！” My daughter smiled calmly and said，“We drive in this weather all the time，Mum.You will never forgive yourself if you miss this experience.” After about twenty minutes，we turned onto a small road and I saw a small church.On the far side of the church，I saw a handlettered sign that read“Daffodil Garden”． We got out of the car and each took a child’s hand，and I followed Carolyn down the path.Then，we turned a corner of the path，and I looked up and gasped.Before me lay the most beautiful sight！There were five acres of flowers！“But who has done this？”I asked Carolyn.“It’s just one woman，”Carolyn answered.“That’s her home.”Carolyn pointed to a wellkept Aframe house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory.We walked up to the house.On the patio(平台)，we saw a poster.“Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking”was the headline. The first answer was a simple one.“50,000 bulbs(鳞茎)，”it read.The second answer was，“One at a time，by one woman.”The third answer was， “Began in 1958.” I thought of this woman whom I had never met，who，more than fifty years before，had begun－one bulb at a time－to bring the beauty and joy to the mountain top. 1．The author didn’t go to see the daffodils at first because .

The problem is that we don’t have enough money. She expressed the hope that they would come to China one day. ②宾语从句中的连接词 that 有时可省有时又不可省，在以下几种情况中 that 不能省略：（A） 当 that 从句和主句谓语动词之间有插入词语或者从句主语之间有插入语时，that 不可省略； （B）当 that 从句与另一名词性从句并列作宾语时，that 不能省；（C）当 that 作介词宾语 时，that 不可省掉。如： He judged that,because he was a child, he did not understand wine Everyone knew what happened and that she was worried. The reason lies in that she works harder than the others do. ③that 从句作主语和宾语时，可以用 it 来替换成以下几种结构表达。 (A)It is clear/certain/likely/true/surprising that… （B）It is a pity/shame/good idea/no wonder that ...（C）It is said/reported/ believed/known/thought/suggested that … （D）It seems/happens that。如： It happened that I went out last night. It is said that China will win in the World Cup. ④that 和 what 的区别。 that 引导名词性从句时，在主从句中不以当任何句子成分，也没有任何含义；而 what 引导 名词性从句时，在主从句中都要充当一定的句子成分，what 可以分解成定语从句中的先行 词 + 关系代词即常说的先行词 + that。如： It’s shame that he has made such a mistake. Do what he says. ⑤同位语从句与定语从句中 that 的区别。 同位语从句中的连词 that 只起连接作用，在从句中不担当任何句子成分；而定语从句中的 关系代词 that 在句中做宾语或主语，宾语与先行词有修饰关系。如果句子是同位语从句， 就应用连词 that 而不能用 which.同位语从句一般放在表具体含义的名词后解释名词的含义 或内容，如以下名词：news、fact、suggestion、truth、plan、belief、doubt、possibility、idea 等，而定语从句只是对先行词的限定和修饰。如： They expressed the hope that they would come to visit China again.(同位语从句) The hope she expressed is that they would come to visit China again.（定语从句） 选择填空 1._____________ you have done might do harm to other people.
