課文簡介

本課主要介紹了鉆石的特性、形成、分布以及開采方式。讀了本課，你會了解鉆石的形成與數(shù)百萬年前的地殼運動有關(guān);你也會了解深受上至達官貴人下至普通百姓喜愛的“恒久遠”的鉆石在剛開采出來時并不光彩照人。

本課語言點

1.They are the hardest substance found in nature.

本句中found in nature是定語從句，修飾substance.定語從句中省略了that are.這種省略現(xiàn)象在定語從句中很常見，在前幾個單元中，我們遇到過多次。請看下面的句子：

1)There are many books(that)I'd like to read.(有很多書我想看。)

2)He is a man(that)we all like and trust.(他是一個我們大家喜歡和信賴的人。)

3)This is the most interesting film(that)I have ever seen.(這是我看過的最有意思的電影)

先行詞的前面有形容詞最高級時，定語從句必須用that引導，而不用which.

本句中的hardest意思為“堅硬的”“堅固的”，而不是“困難的”。

mean是一個很常見的詞，本句中的意思是“意味著”。mean還有“意欲，企圖，打算”的意思。請看下面的句子，注意mean在各句中的意思和用法：

1)What do you mean by saying this to me?(你對我說這個是什么意思?)

2)Friendship means everything to him.(友誼對他來說意味著一切。)

3)The teacher's praise meant so much to the children.(老師的表揚對孩子們來說很重要。)

4)I'm serious about this.I mean what I say.(我對此事是認真的，我說話算數(shù)。)

5)I'm sorry，I didn't mean to hurt you.(對不起，我無意傷害你。)

6)They meant to finish the work ahead of time.(他們的打算是提前完成這項工作。)

7)I meant to call you but I forgot.(我原打算給你打電話的，但我忘記了。)
