在英語中that和which可以省略的從句是定語從句漱挚,省略的條件是現(xiàn)行詞在從句中作賓語才可以省略仔沿,其他情況則不可以省略。
例如1:I can't find the book (which/that) I bought last month. 現(xiàn)行詞the book在從句中作bought的賓語,可以省略。
例2:The book which / that was bought last month was lost yeaterday. 這題現(xiàn)行詞the book在從句中作主語涵卵,此處不能省略浴栽。
還有一種that可以省略的的從句,就是賓語從句轿偎。
例如:Our teacher suggests (that) we should read English every day. 這里suggests后面的是賓語從句典鸡,that可以省略。
注意:如果一個(gè)動(dòng)詞后面接兩個(gè)或者兩個(gè)以上的賓語從句時(shí)坏晦,第一個(gè)從句的that可以省略萝玷,但從第二個(gè)從句開始that不能省略。
例如:The teacher said (that) we should read English every day and that there would be an English exam next week.這里said連接兩個(gè)賓語從句昆婿,第一個(gè)從句的that可省可不省略球碉,第二個(gè)不可以省略。
