无处不在的that 英语中的that是一个无比活跃的存在。 首先,that可以用作只是代词,表示“那个”,与之相对应,this表示“这个”。如: This is my bike.That one is yours. 其次,that可以用作副词,表示“那么”,相当于副词so,修饰形容词或副词。this基本无此用法。如: Can hard work change a person that much? I have never seen him that angry. 第三,that可以引导名词性从句,起连接词的作用,本身没有实际意义,也不充当任何成分。所以,在宾语从句中经常可以省略。如: He told me (that) he would leave for China the next day. Word came that the activity was concelled for financial reason. 第四,that可以用作关系代词,引导定语从句,既可以指人,也可以指物,而且还有用于各种特殊用法。如: The boy who/that is singing is my neighbour's son. The school which/that we visited today was set up 100 years ago. All that glitters is not gold. 第五,that可以代替关系副词引导定语从句。如: I don't like the way you talk to me. 第六,that可以用来引导结果状语从句,构成so……that……,such……that……结构。如: He spoke so fast that I couldn't follow hin. 第六,that可以用来引导目的状语从句,构成so that,in order that结构。如: I got up early so that I could catch the bus. 第七,that可以用于强调句。构成It is……that……, 如: It is your attitude that counts. 第八,that可以用于交际用语中,this则较少。如: That' OK/all right. That's enough. 综上所述,that在英语中是一个多面手,有多种用法,这是this无法比拟的。就像运动员,一个是专项选手,一个是全能选手。 就是这样。 |
