3、joyed a high level of civilization.这座古城肯定一度很繁荣，因为它曾享有高度的文明。prosperousprosparas繁荣的这句话使用了 for引导一个句子，原 则上来说这不能叫做从句，因为你仔细看一下，for后面那个句子有完 整的”主语(it) +谓语(enjoy ) +宾语(civilization ) ”的结构，所 以，可以理解为for引导一个并列句，常用逗号隔开。2.

6、rainage system, for a great many clay pipes were found beneath the narrow streets.城里甚至还配备了排水系统，因为在狭窄的街道底下发现了许许多多陶 土制作的排水管道。同样，这句话使用了 for引导的句子,注意，一般用逗号隔开，且for 后面的句子有完整的主语、谓语、宾语。7. The temple which the archaeologists explored was used as a place of worship from the fifteenth century B.C. until Roman t
7、imes.考古工作者考察的这座庙宇，从公元15世纪前到罗马时代，一直是祭 祀祈祷的场所。这句话比较长，其实拆分一下很好理解：主句:The temple was used as a place of worship.从句:the archaeologists explored the temple.说明时间：from the fifteenth century B.C. until Roman times.8. In the most sacred room of the temple, clay fragments of fifteen statues were found.在庙中最神圣的一间
8、殿堂里发现了 15尊陶雕像的碎片。the most +形容词”构成最高级。9.

10、是在公元前5世纪的文物中找到的。11. It was very old and precious even then.即使在当时，它也属历史悠久的珍奇之物。12. When the archaeologists reconstructed the fragments, they were amazed to find that the goddess turned out to be a very modern-looking woman.考古工作者把这些碎片重新拼装起来后，惊奇地发现那位女神原来是一 位相貌十分摩登的女郎。这句话同样比较长，同样可以进行拆分：表示时间的从句：(When ) t
11、he archaeologists reconstructed the fragments.例如：When I reached the station, the train had left.当我到达火车站时，火车已经开了。主句:they were amazed to find a thing.宾语从句：the goddess turned out to be a very modern-looking woman.13.
