What did the team find?
Dreams of finding lost treasure almost came true recently,A new machine called 'The Revealer' has been invented and it has been used to detect gold which has been buried in the ground,The machine was used in a cave near the seashore where -- it is said -- pirates used to hide gold,The pirates would often bury gold in the cave and then fail to collect it,Armed with the new machine,a search party went into the cave hoping to find buried treasure,The leader of the party was examining the soil near the entrance to the cave when the machine showed that there was gold under the ground,Very excited,the party dug a hole two feel deep,They finally found a small gold coin which was almost worthless,The party then searched the whole cave thoroughly but did not find anything except an empty tin trunk,In spite of this,many people are confident that 'The Revealer' may reveal something of value fairly soon.
参考译文
最近，找到失踪宝藏的梦想差一点儿变成现实。一种叫“探宝器”的新机器已经发明出来，并被人们用来探测地下埋藏的金子。在靠近海边的一个据说过去海盗常在里面藏金子的岩洞里，这种机器被派上了用场。海盗们过去常把金子埋藏在那个洞里，可后来却没能取走。一支用这种新机器装备起来的探宝队进入了这个岩洞，希望找到埋藏着的金子。当这个队的队长正在检查洞口附近的土壤时，那台机器显示出它的下面埋有金子。队员们异常激动，就地挖了一个两英尺深的坑，但最后找到的是一枚几乎一钱不值的小金币。队员们接着又把整个洞彻底搜寻了一遍，但除了一只空铁皮箱外什么也没找到。尽管如此，很多人仍然相信“探宝器”很快就会探出值钱的东西来。

一句话只有一个动词，如果再出现动词，可以用and并列连接，也可以变成复合句用when,because连接，还可以使这个动词表示动词意思，但不做谓语，即非谓语动词过去分词做定语表示＂被＂
ploughed field
n.+ called
The plane called a "Pilatus Porter"
如果用短语修饰其它词，则把短语放在被修饰词的后边
be used to do 被用来
used to do
同位语从句中的引导词只要一个 that
under the ground
it is said 是插入语 ＂据说＂
used to 常常
where 修饰 cave
where ; in which 在那儿
This is the river where I swim

She is a girl,She is my sister,变复杂为简单

went into the cave
hoping to find
They were armed with

如果几个句子的主语是同一事物，则可以把几个句子并为一个句子在把握中心句子的前提下，注意其它成分的合成，如果是主动关系，用ing形式，保留一个句子做主句，其它的变成非谓语动词非谓语动词采用何种形式，则根据其与主语的关系，如果是主动关系，用ing形式，如果是被动关系，则用动词的ed形式主句与其它句子的位置安排要保持句子的平衡，还要注意动作的连贯。

The boy was crying.
The boy was beaten.
Beaten by sb,the boy went home,crying.

【Summary writing】
１．machine 作为先行词，it指代machine,会被which所取代
２．Using this machine,the search party tried to find the gold in a cave near the seashore.
3.Although they examined the cave thoroughly,they only found a small gold coin which was worthless,
although 会引导让步状语从句，which 会引导一个定语从句
4,however 放句首中都可以，要用逗号隔开
