that用法詳解

想要學好考研英語怎麼能不知道that的用法呢?下面就讓小編為大家詳解一下吧。

that用法詳解

that是英語中十分常見的單詞,用法靈活多樣,是英語中最常用的詞彙之一。正因為它是我們認為自己最熟悉的單詞,反而容易忽視它。在考研英語中,對that的考查包括三個方面:(1)that作指示代詞的用法;(2)that作連詞引導各類從句時,需要準確辨別從句類型。

一、that 作限定詞或代詞

that可以作限定詞或代詞連接名詞或名詞短語,也可單獨使用,用以指代人或者物。此外,that不僅可以指代單獨的人或物,還可以指代一句話。

例:Furthermore, in the early days of long line fishing, a lot of fish were lost to sharks after they had been hooked. That is no longer a problem, because there are fewer sharks around now. [2006, text3]

分析:

A.分析句子結構。Furthermore, in the early days of long line fishing, a lot of fish were lost to sharks //after they had been hooked. That is no longer a problem, //because there are fewer sharks around now.

第一個句子的主句為a lot of fish were lost to sharks,介詞短語in the early days of long line fishing作狀語,after引導時間狀語從句。第二個句子主句是That is no longer a problem, that為代詞,because引導原因狀語從句。

B.分析that指代。that指代第一句話,“a lot of fish were lost to sharks after they had been hooked”,其中after引導時間狀語從句。

C.譯文:而且,在使用多鈎長線捕魚的初期,許多魚被鈎住後又被鯊魚奪走。這不再是一個問題,因為附近的鯊魚更少了。

 二、that作副詞表示程度,相當於so

例:It isn’t all that cold. 天沒有那麼冷。

三、that作連詞引導各類從句

(1)that引導名詞性從句

that後面連接一個完整的陳述句,可以位於主語、賓語、表語或同位語的位置,分別引導主語從句、賓語從句、表語從句和同位語從句。此時,that沒有實意,而且不在從句中做任何成分。that引導主語從句和同位語從句時不可以省略。

例1:That the plates are movingis now beyond dispute. (主語從句)

地球板塊是在漂移的,這一事實毋庸置疑。

例2:The truth is that everyone should take care of orphan, not just the authorities.(表語從句)

事實是,所有人都應該照顧孤兒,而不僅僅是完全由政府承擔。

例3:All people believed that it was right to rescue the temple. (賓語從句)(注:that可以省略)

所有人都認為拯救古廟是正確的。

例4:The students expressed their hope that they could be admitted by that university.(同位語從句)

學生們表達了他們向被這所大學錄取的願望。

(2)that引導定語從句

that引導定語從句,在從句中充當主語、表語或者賓語,既可以指代人,也可以指代物。that在定語從句中作賓語時,引導詞that可以省略。

例1:The professor that you admire most will visit our university next month.

你敬仰的那個教授下月會到我們學校參觀。

例2:This is one of the subways that will be put into use in two years.

這是未來兩年內將開通的'地鐵之一。

例3:I have nothing that is worth reading.

我沒有什麼值得一讀的東西。

(注:當先行詞中有不定代詞、形容詞最高級、序數詞或者先行詞被the only,the very等限定詞修飾等情況下,定語從句引導詞也只能用that。)

(3)that與其他單詞結合引導狀語從句

that可以和其他單詞結構共同引導狀語從句,例如,等引導結果狀語從句,in order that,so that等引導目的狀語從句,in that,now that,on the grounds that等引導原因狀語從句,suppose/supposing/assume/assuming/provided/providing that,on condition that等引導條件狀語從句等。

例1:She has made suchrapid progress thatbefore long she could pass the exam.

她進步很快,不久就能通過考試的。

例2:You should make full use of this opportunityso thatyou can get rich experience.

你應該充分利用這次機會,以便獲得豐富的經驗

例3:Supposing thatyou were in my position, what would you do?

如果你在我的位置,你會怎麼做?

例4:On condition thatyou were lost in the desert, you should ask for help as soon as possible.

如果你在沙漠中迷路,你應該儘早尋求幫助。

(4)that引導強調句

“It is/was+被強調部分+that從句”是高頻使用的一種強調句型,其中被強調部分可以作從句的主語、賓語和狀語等。強調句中去掉“it is/was”和“that”後,句子成分和語義仍然完整。

例:It was after the war was over that Einstein was able to come back to his research work again.

戰爭結束後愛因斯坦才能重新進行他的研究工作。
