Ask & Learn聞問(wèn)切英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)交際,講解了That的省略的單詞日常交際用法,包含了例句解析以及在情景中的口語(yǔ)講解, 0Ask & Learn聞問(wèn)切英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ):That的省略
讀者 Kathy Yu 來(lái)電郵問(wèn):如果 "I find it hard to understand" 和 "I find learning English interesting" 兩句都符合英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)法,那我們又如何解釋下面的句子?
I'm finding everything here is very expensive.
Kathy 在電郵也有提出自己的看法。頭兩句是按照這樣的結(jié)構(gòu):
主語(yǔ) + 動(dòng)詞 + 賓語(yǔ) + 賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)
(subjec + verb + object + object complement)
所以?xún)删涠贾挥幸粋€(gè)動(dòng)詞(find)。Kathy 說(shuō)得非常有道理。
至于第三句的結(jié)構(gòu),其實(shí)比較像復(fù)述句(indirect speech)。先舉一例:John 出外購(gòu)物,發(fā)現(xiàn)東西很貴,說(shuō)到: "Everything here is very expensive."
把句子寫(xiě)成復(fù)述句:
John said that everything here was very expensive.
然而,復(fù)述句里的 that 常常被省略,因此上面的句子也可以寫(xiě)成:
John said everything here was very expensive.
再看 Kathy 提出的那一句 "I'm finding (that) everything here is very expensive.",只不過(guò)是把 that 省去罷了。
