寻求世界一流英语高手帮我解答下这几句英语

我现在正在学新概念英语第二册71 -72课,这两篇课文。其中遇见一些不懂的句子,现在急求各位帮忙解答下。 the making of the clockwhen the new Housesof Parliament were being built.请问这句话中的making是名词还是动词,因为前面有定冠词the这句话该怎么翻译呢?make of一般是指由什么的制作。 Big Ben has rarely gone wrong.这句话中的rarely是什么意思呢?it failed to give thecorrect time.这句话也是correct是动词还是名词,在这里是什么意思呢?我所知道的是改正的意思。 A painter who had been working on the tower hung a pot of paint on one of the hands and slowed it down!这句话中的hung前面为什么不加and呢? 有人说是定语从句可是我真的看不出来,如果是定语从句可以帮我分析下吗?The great racing driver, SirMalcolm Campbell, was thefirst man to drive at over 300 miles per hour. 这句话中的driver前面为什么不加of因为这里的racing是名词啊!又不是形容词。the man前面这个to表示什么呢?这里应该不表示目的吧!Following in his father's footsteps many years later,这句话是说踏着他的父亲的足迹许多年之后。请问踏着某人的足迹是不是固定短语。 but to Perpignan onthe French-Spanish border. 这句话中的to也不知道了起什么作用perpignan什么意思呢?

making 这里是名词词性,但是是动词词意,也就是所谓的“动名词”。of在这里是所有格,表示“的”,并不是make of中的意思。所以Big Ben takes its name from Sir Benjamin Hall who was responsible for the making of the clock when the new Houses of Parliament were being built.这句话的意思是:大本钟名字来源于Sir Benjamin Hall ,他负责钟的建造……

rarely很少,这句话是说:大本钟很少出错。

correct这里是形容词,正确的。这个词有动词词性,也有形容词词性。

A painter who had been working on the tower hung a pot of paint on one of the hands and slowed it down!这句话的主句是这个:A painter hung a pot of paint on one of the hands and slowed it down.一个画家把一桶颜料挂到了一个指针上,使它慢了下来。who had been working on the tower 是同位语从句,是说:这个画家一直在塔楼上工作。

racing这里是形容词,动词的过去分词和现在分词都可以做形容词。只有动词加ing什么时候是动名词什么时候是形容词,要看他在句子中做什么成分。这里明显是定语。

was the first man to drive at
over 300 miles per hour,这里was the first man 是谓语部分,to drive不定式,将drive和谓语动词区分开,将意思补充完整。

follow his father’s footsteps可以说是固定短语。

to Perpignan中的to是指:did not take him into…but to,没有把他带到……而是到了……
Perpignan是个地名,佩皮尼昂,法国的一个城市。
