that引導(dǎo)名詞性從句時(即主語、賓語、表語、同位語從句)
在從句中無具體含義,只起連接作用,而且在從句中也不作任何句子成分。它所引導(dǎo)的從句的句子結(jié)構(gòu)和意義是完整的,而且從句一般是陳述一個事實。
例如:
、賂hat she was able to come made us very happy.她能來使我們很高興。
當(dāng)that引導(dǎo)的主語從句或賓語從句太長時,常用it作形式主語或賓語而把that從句放在后面。
如: ①It is well—known that the earth is round.眾所周知,地球是圓的。
that引導(dǎo)的主語從句,表語從句以及同位語中,that不能省略。
that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句,一般可以省去that,但在下面情況中不能省略。
1.在suggest,order等表示命令、請求、建議等動詞后的賓語從句中,不能省。
2.由and或but所連接的兩個引導(dǎo)的賓語從句時,第一個從句中的that可以省,第二個從句中的that不能省。
3.that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句,如果從句中還有其他狀語從句,引導(dǎo)賓語從句的that不能省略。Tell him that if he is at home, I’ll call to see him.
2that引導(dǎo)定語從句要注意以下幾點
1.定語從句中缺主語,修飾人時用who/that,修飾物時用which/that引導(dǎo)。如: Is this the factory which/that makes TV sets?The man who/that visited our school is from Australia.
2.從句中缺賓語,修飾人時用who/whom/that或省略引導(dǎo)詞;修飾物時用which/that或省略引導(dǎo)詞。如:Gone are the days which/that we spent together in the village.He is the man who/whom/that I think to be worthy of our praise.
