12、序数词或 the last 等修饰时，后面通常用不定式作定语。本句是主从复合句，when 引导非限制性定语从句修饰 982 AD，过去分词短语 called Eric the Red 作后置定语，修饰 a man；there were.Iceland 是主句，现在分词短语 living in Iceland 作后置定语修饰Vikings。that 引导宾语从句，从句中含有一个 where 引导的定语从句，修饰先行词 the place。of which 为“介词关系代词”结构，引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词 25 ships。Not long after Eric the Red had l

15、ds through stories which were written down centuries later in Norway and Iceland.They are the first records we have of Europeans sailing to the Americas.埃里克雷德登上格陵兰岛后不久，一个叫比阿尼的人就从冰岛起航寻找埃里克一行人。比阿尼希望找到和埃里克在一起的父亲，但是他被吹离了航线，并且发现自己在一个未知的地方，从那里他最终抵达格陵兰岛。1002 年，埃里克雷德的儿子赖伊夫打算继续向西航行，他和比阿尼商量了他的计划。赖伊夫依照比阿尼的指点，航
