Step 2 Explanations:

定语从句的缩短

定语从句可以缩短或简化，主要通过以下形式：

一、省略作宾语的关系代词

在定语从句中作宾语的关系代词有who（m），which，that。在限制性定语从句中，当who（m）和that作宾语用于指人时，可以互换使用，通常可以省略；当that和which作宾语用于指物时，两者也可以互换使用，关系代词that/which也通常省略。例如：

Is that the man（whom）/（who）/（that）you gave your tickets to?（whom，who或that可以省略）

Is that the address（which）/（that）you sent the telegram to?（which或that可以省略）

Where is the book（which）/（that）I bought yesterday?（which或that 可以省略）

二、将定语从句变为非谓语动词

1.定语从句转换成不定式短语。例如：

This is the best thing that we can do in memory of our beloved teacher.

→This is the best thing to do in memory of our beloved tea cher.

这是为纪念我们敬爱的老师我们能做的最好的事。

He is a good comrade with whom you can work.

→He is a good comrade to work with.

他是一个很好共事的同志。

2.定语从句转换成现在分词短语。例如：

The train that leaves from Platform 5 goes to Beijing.

→The train leaving from Platform 5 goes to Beijing.

第五站台开出的火车驶往北京。

Yesterday we had a meeting which lasted two hours.

→Yesterday we had a meeting lasting two hours.

昨天我们举行了一个持续两小时的会议。

3.定语从句转换成过去分词短语。例如：

The house which was damaged in the fire will be rebuilt soon.

→The house damaged in the fire will be rebuilt s oon.

大火中损坏的房子不久就要翻修。

The plan which is being discussed is of great importance.
