要不是那三集紀(jì)錄片，外面的人永遠(yuǎn)也不會知道，在這里工作的那些衣著樸素的人竟然都是精于各門技藝的大師，他們畢生都在修復(fù)珍貴的古董。

(1)If...hadn’t...,...wouldhave...是虛擬語氣句型，表示與過去事實(shí)相反。

(2)“thatthe...theircraft”為that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。(3)“whohave...antiques”為who引導(dǎo)的非限制性定語從句。2.Amongtheseistheclockrestorationmaster,WangJin.

rangefrom…to…：范圍從……到……e.g.Coursesrangefromcookerytocomputing.課程多種多樣，從烹調(diào)到計(jì)算機(jī)操作應(yīng)有盡有。9.Giventhecomplexityoftheworkandthelackofnecessarymaterials,thismeansthateachexpertcanworkonamaximumoftwolargepiecesayear.工作的復(fù)雜性和必要材料的缺乏意味著每位專家每年最多只能修復(fù)兩件大型鐘表。

bringsth.backtolife讓某物獲得重生e.g.Expertsstudyingthemhopetofindthegeneticsecretsofthemammothandbringthembacktolife.研究猛犸象的專家們希望能破解猛犸象的基因秘密，讓它們獲得重生。11.TheonlysoundtobreakthesilenceinWangJin'sworkshopisthechimingmelodyoftherepairedandpolishedclocks.在王津的工作坊里，唯一能打破寂靜的聲音是在修理、拋光鐘表時發(fā)出的報(bào)時的旋律。

本句為復(fù)合句，evenif引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句；because引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句，在此從句中that引導(dǎo)定語從句，修飾先行詞clocks。17.Thisisaraceagainsttimethatcanneverbewon!

這是一場與時間的賽跑，卻永遠(yuǎn)不可能贏！that引導(dǎo)定語從句，修飾先行詞race。18.Followinginthefootstepsofhisownteacherallthoseyearsago,MrWanghasnowpassedon
