内容正文:
九年级Unit 9 I like music that I can dance to. 我喜欢可以随之跳舞的音乐。
关键词:定语从句
· that I can dance to是一个从句,用来修饰music,它的意思是“我可以随之跳舞的”。如果这样的从句修饰的是东西,要用that或which;如果修饰的是人,用who或that。Jack lives in a house which is eighty years old. (杰克住在一间八十年的房子里。)The man who called you this afternoon wasn't friendly. (今天下午打电话给你的那个男人不友善。)Bill is riding a bike that is too small for him. (比尔正骑着一辆对他来说太小的自行车。)
· 如果句子中的who, which和that 都是从句的主语,则不能省略;如果是从句宾语,则whom, which, 或that都可省略,I like music that I can dance to. that是从句里to的宾语,因此可以省略,说成I like music I can dance to。例:It's not easy to eat all the cake that he baked. (他烤的蛋糕不容易吃完。)= It's not easy to eat all the cake he baked. ——因为that 是指“他烤的蛋糕”,也就是that被他烤的,that是宾语。
· 谈到地方时,也可用where 代替which。 例:
The hotel where we stayed was near the park. (我们住的饭店离公园很近。)= The hotel which we stayed at was near the park.——因为where 本身是副词,所以第一句中的at要省略。
