sculpture. The first thing I saw when I entered the art gallery was a notice which said: \'Do not touch the exhibits. Some of them are dangerous!\' The objects on display were pieces of moving sculpture. Oddly shaped forms that are suspended from the ceiling and move in response to a gust of wind are quite familiar to everybody. These objects, however, were different. Lined up against the wall, there were long thin wires attached to metal spheres. The spheres had been magnetized and attracted or repelled each other all the time. In the centre of the hall, there were a number of tall structures which contained coloured lights. These lights flickered continuously like traffic lights which have gone mad. Sparks were emitted from small black boxes and red lamps flashed on and off angrily. It was rather like an exhibition of prehistoric electronic equipment. These Peculiar forms not only seemed designed to shock people emotionally, but to give them electric shocks as well!

§ Lesson 19 A very dear cat 一只贵重的宝贝猫
Q:Why was Rastus ‘very dear’ in more ways than one?
Kidnappers are rarely interested in Animals, but they recently took considerable interest in Mrs Eleanor Ramsay\'s cat. Mrs Eleanor Ramsay, a very wealthy old lady,has shared a flat with her cat, Rastus, for a great many years. Rastus leads an orderly life. He usually takes a short walk in the evenings and is always home by seven o\'clock. One evening, however, he failed to arrive. Mrs Ramsay got very worried. She looked everywhere for him but could not find him.
Three day after Rastus\' disappearance, Mrs Ramsay received an anonymous letter. The writer stated that Rastus was in safe hands and would be returned immediately if Mrs Ramsay paid a ransom of amp;1000. Mrs Ramsay was instructed to place the money in a cardboard box and to leave it outside her door. At first, she decided to go to the police, but fearing that she would never see Rastus again --the letter had made that quite clear--she changed her mind. She drew amp;1000 from her bank and followed the kidnapper\'s instructions. The next morning, the box had disappeared but Mrs Ramsay was sure that the kidnapper would keep his word. Sure enough, Rastus arrived punctually at seven o\'clock that evening. He looked very well, though he was rather thirsty, for he drank half a bottle of milk. The police were astounded when Mrs Ramsay told them what she had done. She explained that Rastus was very dear to her. Considering the amount she paid, he was dear in more ways than one!

§ Lesson 20 Pioneer pilots 飞行员的先驱
Q:What was the name of the first plane to fly across the English Channel?
In 1908 Lord Northcliffe offered a prize of £1000 to the first man who would fly across the English Channel. Over a year passed before the first attempt was made. On July 19th, 1909, in the early morning, Hubert Latham took off from the French coast in his plane the \'Antoinette IV\'. He had travelled only seven miles across the Channel when his engine failed and he was forced to land on the sea. The \'Antoinette\' floated on the water until Latham was picked up by a ship.
Two days later, Louis Bleriot arrived near Calais with a plane called \'No. XI\'. Bleriot had been making planes since 1905 and this was his latest model. A week before, he had completed a successful overland flight during which he covered twenty-six miles. Latham, however did not give up easily. He, too, arrived near Calais on the same day with a new \'Antonette\'. It looks as if there would be an exciting race across the Channel. Both planes were going to take off on July 25th, but Latham failed to get up early enough. After making a short test flight at 4.15 a.m., Bleriot set off half an hour later. His great flight lasted thirty seven minutes. When he landed near Dover, the first person to greet him was a local policeman. Latham made another attempt a week later and got within half a mile of Dover, but he was unlucky again. His engine failed and he landed on the sea for the second time.

介词和关系代词搭配连用,当定语从句的关系代词是介词的宾语时,能够把可移位的介词提前放在关系代词的前面。(正式)
在非正式问题和口语当中,介词一般要放在从句的末尾
定语从句中介词位置
决定介词位置的4个因素:
1.如果是口语,介词位于句尾,同时关系代词可以省略。
2.非正式问题,介词位于从句句尾。
3.有些动词+ 介词,合成词组被看成是不可分割的语言单位,这个时候介词必须紧跟动词,不可移动
take after account for
4.在很多情况下,介词和关系代词构成独立的介词短语,在句中起状语作用,与从句的谓语动词毫无关系,而不是谓语动词的一部分,这时介词始终位于关系代词之前
Eg: He described it as a very agreeable situation located within two small hills
In the midst of two small hills, flowed a great river.
Eg: He described it as a very agreeable situation located within two small hills in the midst of which flowed a great river.(in the midst of跟后面的谓语动词flow没有任何关系)
Mrs. Ramsay received an anonymous letter in which the writer stated that Rastus was in safe hands.
