体裁:应用文 题材:广告 主题:成年人教育课程
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇应用文,介绍了四门针对成年人教育的课程,即计算机课程、木工手艺、网页设计和艺术。
【难句分析】 Each lesson explores a different area of woodworking that will provide you with the skills needed for any woodworking project.
分析:本句是一个主从复合句。“that will provide you... woodworking project”为that引导的定语从句,修饰先行词“a different area of woodworking”, that在从句中作主语,“needed for any woodworking project”作skills的后置定语。
