Notes on the text课文注释
1 to take them with me把它们带上。
them指"两本词典"。
2 The lady who is standing behind the counter
这是一个省略句,完整的句子是“The lady who is standing behind the counter served me.”其中who is standing behind the counter是一个以关系代词who引导的定语从句,用来修饰前面的名词the lady。
本课带有定语从句的复合句还有:The books which are on the counter; He says he's the man who bought these books: The man who I served was wearing a hat; Is this the man that you served等,其中which, who,whom, that均为关系代词。
3 The man who I served was wearing a hat.
这是另一个定语从句的例子。由于被修饰的名词the man在定语从句中是动词served的宾语,因此,关系代词应该用宾格whom,但在口语中往往用主格who。
Lesson 122 Who (whom), which and that关系代词New words and expressions生词和短语
road
n.路
First things first课文详注Further notes on the text 1.…but I forgot to take them with me. …但是我忘了拿走。
forget to do sth.表示“忘了做某事”,them指两本字典。
2.put it on,戴上它。
这里的it指a hat,以避免重复。 put on是“戴上”、“穿上”的意思。如果它的宾语是一个名词,这个名词可放在put on之后,也可放在put和on之间。如果是代词,就必须放在put和on之间。如:
Put on your coat./ Put your coat on.
穿上外衣。
但只能说:
Put it on.
把它穿上。
语法Grammar in use
定语从句
定语从句像形容词一样起修饰作用,但位于所修饰的名词之后。定语从句由关系代词引导,紧跟在它所修饰的成分后面。关系代词who,whom与that修饰人,which与that修饰东西。关系代词指代从句的主语或宾语,同时又充当连接词,把从句和主句连接起来。请看例句:
(1)关系代词作从句的主语(who/which/that):
The dog which/that is carrying the basket is mine.
叼着篮子的那只狗是我的。
He's the porter who/that carried my suitcase.
他就是那个扛着我的衣箱的搬运工。
(2)关系代词作从句的宾语(whom/that/which):
They're the windows which/that the children broke yesterday.
这些就是孩子们昨天打碎的窗户。
She's the lady whom I served yesterday.
她就是我昨天服务过的那位女士。
