include做“包括“讲,as part of the whole,类属前边的名词概念,显然,syllable和foot没有这样的关系。而consist of 做“包括“, be made up of ,与前边的名词可以不属一类。

D 中accompanied by one or two unaccented syllables有可能变成修饰that前面的主语foot?作者: tongxun 时间: 2002-10-8 13:30
给个例子吧,理解起来方便一点:
Where's the money that I lent you?
He lent me 1000 dollars, which was exactly the amount I need.作者: mihu 时间: 2002-10-9 10:43
princess, could you give an example that need use "that"? thanks.作者: primefang 时间: 2002-10-9 11:36
mihu, did you miss a ", " before "that"???
but the difference between "that" and "which" really confuse me作者: mihu 时间: 2002-10-9 11:54
primefang, I checked it, no "," before "that". 限定与非限定是关键,但我也没有吃透。作者: princess 时间: 2002-10-9 23:27
mihu, here's an example from OG:
258. The British sociologist and activist Barbara Wootton once noted as a humorous example of income maldistribution that the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo was earning annually exactly what she then earned as director of adult education for London.
(A) that the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo was earning
(B) that the elephant, giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo, had been earning
(C) that there was an elephant giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo, and it earned
(D) the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo and was earning
(E) the elephant giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo and that it earned
此题答案是A,A是限定性定语从句。
而对于B,OG上有这样的解释:
In B, the structure of “noted... that the elephant, giving rides ..., had been earning” falsely implies that the reader already knows about the elephant--that is, that the existence of this particular elephant is not new information. 我觉得可以把分词短语giving。。。看成是非限定性的修饰成分,如果这儿用which gave rides...,应该也是错的。
不知道我说清楚了没有:)作者: mihu 时间: 2002-10-10 09:50
