◆典句赏析

1.He wanted to create a team sport more suitable for older members,which needs athletic skills.他想创建一个更适合年纪略大的会员参与的团体运动，并且需要运动技巧。

此句为含有which引导的非限定性定语从句的复合句，修饰先行词team sport；句中的want to意为“想要”，want后接的动词不定式作宾语。

2.Volleyball is a game which is full of excitement and energy.排球是一项充满激情和能量的比赛。

此句为含有which引导的定语从句的复合句，从句修饰表示事物的先行词game，引导词which也可换成that；be full of意为“充满……的”，可以与be filled with互换使用。

3.Secondly,being familiar with the rules of the volleyball game and obeying it well will help you a lot.其次，熟悉排球比赛的规则并认真遵守也会对你有很大的帮助。

being familiar with the rules of the volleyball game和obeying it well都是动名词短语，两者构成并列主语；a lot作为副词，意为“很；非常”，相当于very much。

4.For instance,if you stand at a wrong place to catch the ball or you touch the net,you will be warned.例如，如果你接球时站错了地方或者你碰网了，你都会被警告。

此句为含有if引导的条件状语从句的复合句。在表达中我们要注意“主将从现”的原则；for instance是固定词组，意为“例如”，用于列举具体事例的场合。
