  while和现在分词搭配, 做时间状语, 表示“正在做某事的过程中”。

  现在分词做定语:

  -- the steps leading to the president‘s palace 通向王宫的台阶。

  -- the road leading to the forest 通向森林的路。

  fifteen-foot做前置定语, 这里的名词必须上单数形式。

  which引导的定语从句修饰wall, which指代wall。

  -- wall which surrounded… (= wall surrounding…)

  -- 为了避免和前面的现在分词句式结构(leading)相同所以没有用surrounding.
