◆典句賞析

1.In some parts of Guangdong and Fujian Provinces,and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region,people soak the glutinous rice in alkaline（堿的）water,which makes the rice honey-colored and soft.在廣東、福建和廣西壯族自治區(qū)的一些地方，人們會(huì)把糯米浸在堿水里，使糯米變成蜜黃色并且口感柔軟。

“which makes the rice honey-colored and softer”是非限制性定語(yǔ)從句，關(guān)系代詞是which,代替上文中出現(xiàn)的alkaline water。in some parts of是固定詞組搭配，意為“在……的某些地方”，后接地點(diǎn)名詞。

【即時(shí)嘗試】那里所有的書，里面有美麗圖畫的，都是他寫的。

2.People in Sichuan Province make spicy zongzi with chili powder and preserved pork while in Suzhou,Jiangsu Province,the people put a piece of pork fat into zongzi to give it a special smell.四川人用辣椒粉和腌豬肉來(lái)包一種“辣粽”，而在江蘇的蘇州，人們會(huì)在粽子里包進(jìn)一塊豬油，讓粽子吃起來(lái)有一種特殊的香味。

句中的while是連詞，常用來(lái)表示對(duì)比或者轉(zhuǎn)折，意為“而；然而”，while一般位于句子的中間。

【即時(shí)嘗試】你喜歡體育，而我更喜歡音樂(lè)。
