MASTERS OF TIME
In the quiet courtyards①of Xi San Suo，behind the high walls of the Forbidden City，time ticks at its own pace. If it hadn't been for a three-episode②documentary，outsiders would never have known that the plainly-dressed③ people working here are masters of their craft，who have spent their lives restoring precious④antiques⑤ 1．Among these is the clock restoration⑥ master，Wang Jin．2
教材原文
1 本句是主从复合句。“If it...documentary”为if引导的与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句，主句中that引导宾语从句；who引导定语从句，修饰先行词masters。
2 本句中，among “在……其中”是介词，位于句首，谓语动词是表示存在意义的be，那么，句子的主语与谓语需倒装。
Walking through the seven crimson gates towards his workplace⑦，Wang Jin still regards himself as an ordinary worker in the Palace Museum，although now he is often stopped by admirers wanting their photo taken with him. 3 Day
教材原文
in，day out⑧，Mr Wang and his students spend their time restoring clocks dating back hundreds of years.But for quite some time，he and his student Qi Haonan used to be the only two people repairing timepieces⑨ in the Palace Museum.
3 本句是主从复合句。“Walking through...his workplace”是v. -ing形式的短语作时间状语；“although now...with him”是although引导的让步状语从句；其中wanting their photo taken with him是v. -ing形式的短语作定语，修饰admirers。下文中的dating back hundreds of years与repairing timepieces
教材原文
in the Palace Museum也是v. -ing形式的短语作定语，分别修饰clocks和the only two people。
Qing emperors were very fond of clocks.Therefore，in order to please⑩them，foreign envoys presented these emperors with the most intricate and splendid timepieces.Today，the Palace Museum has one of the most significant collections of timepieces in the world，mainly originating from Europe and China.With objects ranging from small pocket watches to clocks over one metre in height，each of these requires its own unique method of
教材原文
restoration. Given the complexity of the work and the lack of necessary materials，this means that each expert can work on a maximum of two large pieces a year.But，through their painstaking efforts，Mr Wang and his students do more than repair the clocks—they bring them back to life.
The only sound to break the silence in Wang Jin's workshop 4 is the chiming melody of the repaired and polished clocks.To Wang Jin it is the most beautiful music in the world. Now，after eight months of endless adjustments，the time has finally come for Mr Wang to wind up the gigantic clocks that
教材原文
date back to the time of Emperor Qianlong. The intricately fashioned objects that have stood still for centuries instantly come back to life：water flows，boats sail，dogs bark ， chickens flap their wings and a woman starts to spin. It is a truly awe-inspiring moment.It is suddenly clear that when the clock masters say that “these antiques have lives”，it is neither an exaggeration nor a metaphor.
4此处为不定式短语作后置定语，修饰sound。“the only＋名词”后常跟不定式作定语。
教材原文
But，despite the combined work of several generations of masters，it seems unlikely that the restoration of the clocks will ever be complete.Even if every clock in the Palace Museum were restored，there would still be work to do, because restoration would probably need to begin again on the clocks that were repaired long ago.5 This is a race against time that can never be won! Nonetheless ，Mr Wang remains optimistic about the future of these timepieces. Following in the footsteps of his own teacher all those years ago，
教材原文
Mr Wang has now passed on his skills to the new members，who will take on many of the future repairs.What's more，inspired to follow in his father's footsteps.Mr Wang's son now has also taken up repairing antique clocks.This new generation of artisans will not only help preserve traditional skills；the innovation they bring to the craft will also ensure that the art of clock repairing stands the test of time .
教材原文
5 本句使用了虚拟语气的主从复合句。其中even if引导让步状语从句；主句中because引导原因状语从句，原因状语从句中又包含一个that 引导的定语从句，修饰clocks。
In today's fast-paced world，the saying that “time waits for no man” has never seemed more apt.Yet inside the hidden courtyards of Xi San Suo，there is something timeless about the way Mr Wang and his colleagues sedately piece together the past with skilful hands and modest hearts.It is as if they have become one with their craft and with the history of the country.

时间大师
在安静的西三所庭院，紫禁城的高墙之后，时间以自己的节奏滴答作响。如果没有那一部三集纪录片，外人永远也不会知道在这里工作的衣着朴素的工人是手艺大师，他们用一生的时间修复珍贵的文物，其中有一位钟表修复师叫王津。
当王津穿过七扇深红色的大门去往工作间时，虽然他现在经常被仰慕他的人拦住与他合影，但他仍认为自己只是故宫博物院的一名普通员工。日复一日，王师傅和他的学生把时间都花在修复几百年前的钟表上。
课文翻译
但在相当长的一段时间里，他和他的学生亓昊楠曾是故宫博物院里仅有的两个修理钟表的人。
清朝皇帝非常喜欢钟表。因此，为了取悦他们，外国使臣把最复杂精细和最华丽的钟表送给这些皇帝。如今，故宫有世界上最丰富的钟表收藏之一，藏品主要来源于欧洲和中国。小到怀表，大到高一米以上的钟表，每一件都需要独特的修复方法。考虑到工作的复杂性和必需材料的缺乏，这意味着每个专家每年最多能修复两件大型作品。但是，通过
课文翻译
他们的辛苦努力，王师傅和他的学生们所做的不仅仅是修理钟表——他们是让钟表起死回生。
在王津的工作室里，唯一打破寂静的就是那些被修理和打磨过的钟表发出的报时的旋律。对王津来说，它是世界上最美妙的音乐。如今，经过8个月的不停调适，终于到了王津为这些可以追溯到乾隆皇帝时期的巨型时钟上发条的时候了。这些存在了几个世纪制作复杂的物件一下子活了过来：水流、船行、狗吠、鸡群振翅，还有一个女人开始纺线。这
课文翻译
真的是一个令人惊叹的时刻。人们突然明白了，当钟表大师们说“这些古董有生命”时，既不是夸大其词，也非比喻。
但是，尽管经过几代大师的共同努力，这些时钟的修复似乎永远不可能完成。即使故宫博物院的每一个时钟都被修复了，仍然有工作要做，因为很久以前修复过的时钟可能还要再次修复。这是一场与时间的赛跑，永远不可能赢！尽管如此，王师傅对这些钟表的未来仍持乐观态度。多年前，王师傅跟随自己老师的脚步，现在他已将自己的技能传授给那些将要承担很多未来的维修工作的新成员。此外，王师傅的儿子受到启发
课文翻译
追随父亲的脚步，现在也在从事古董钟的修复工作。这新一代的手艺人不仅帮助保存传统技艺，他们给工艺带来的创新也将确保钟表修理的艺术经受住时间的考验。
在当今这个快节奏的世界里，“时间不等人”这句话似乎再合适不过了。然而，在隐蔽的西三所庭院里，王师傅和他的同事们凭借技巧娴熟的双手和谦逊的心，静静地拼合起过去的样子是永恒的，就好像他们与自己的技艺和这个国家的历史已融为一体。

2．Among these is the clock restoration master, Wang Jin.
其中有钟表修复大师王津。
本句是一个完全倒装句。among these是表示地点的介词短语，谓语动词是表示存在意义的be，这种情况用完全倒装，即谓语在主语之前。表示地点的介词(短语)位于句首，谓语动词是be，lie，stand，exist等，这类句子的倒装结构，要注意其中的谓语应与其后的主语保持一致，而不是与位于句首的表语保持一致。倒装是一种语法结构，或出于修辞的需要，或为了强调句子的某一部分。
完全倒装句的其他类型：
(1) here类完全倒装句。当here、there、now、 then这类词位于句首时，其后用完全倒装形式。
(2) away类完全倒装句。当副词away、 down、 in、 off、 out、 over、 round、up等这类词位于句首时，其后也用完全倒装形式。这类倒装句的谓语通常是表示动态的不及物动词，如come、go、leave等。
(3)非谓语动词类完全倒装句。有时为了强调，可将谓语部分的现在分词、过去分词或不定式置于句首，构成倒装。
(4)There be句型是英语中的一种固定句型，它本身就是倒装句。引导词there放在句首，be动词的某种形式作谓语。表示“存在，有”。
In the box beside the wall were some cats that are raised by the boy.
在墙边的盒子里有几只猫，这些猫是那个男孩饲养的。
By the window sat a young man with a magazine in his hand.
窗户边坐着一个年轻男子，他手里拿着一本杂志。

Down came the rain and up went the umbrellas.
下雨了，伞都撑起来了。
Buried in the sands was an ancient village.
一个古老的村庄被淹埋在这沙丘之中。

这类倒装句的主语只能是名词，若主语为代词，则不能倒装。例如：Here it comes.它来了。
