USAGE NOTE 用法说明: that, who, and 和 which
You should only leave out the pronoun that when it is the object of a verb. that 只有作动词的受词时才能省略:
She's the woman (that) I love. 她就是我所爱的女人。
Only use that instead of who or which when the meaning of the noun is limited to show which one(s) you mean. 只有当名词的含义仅限于你所指的意思时，才可以用 that 代替 who 或 which:
This is the man who/that told the police. 这就是向警方举报的那个人。
Do not use that instead of who or which when you are simply adding information. 如果只是补充信息，就不能用 that 代替 who 或 which:
This is my father, who lives in Dublin. 这是我父亲，他住在都柏林。
She owns an old Rolls Royce, which she bought in 1954. 她有一辆旧的劳斯莱斯汽车，那是她在 1954 年买的。
In spoken English, that is usually left out before a noun clause, especially after verbs about saying or thinking. 在英语口语中，名词子句前常常省略 that, 尤其是在表示说或想的动词后:
She said (that) it wasn't true. 她说那不是真的。
I think (that) you're right. 我认为你是对的。 |
