It was also a treasure decorated with gold and jewels, which took the country’s best artists about ten years to make. [点拨] 本句是一个主从复合句。

逗号前为主句，其中“decorated with gold and jewels”为过去分词短语作treasure的后置定语；逗号后为which 引导的非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词treasure。take sb. some time表示“花了某人一些时间”。这个结构也可改写为句型：it takes sb. some time to do sth. 如：

The job was very difficult, which took the workers ten months to do.

It took me quite a long time to understand the meaning of the painting. 辨析：take, pay, cost 和spend

It takes (sb.) + 时间

the way表示“以…的方式”，其前面省略了介词in, in the/ this/that/ my way 中介词通

常可以省略。

the way she wanted 可以看成是方式状语从句,意为“照…,据…”,就相当于连词as in a way, in the way 也有类似的用法

Eg. 她以我喜欢的方式烹调鸡肉。She cooks chicken in the way I like. 14.
