2403 承上篇
今天要談的是此篇文章裏, that的其他例句. 在一篇文章裏, 先把that找出來, 再對應相關文法書分析為何如此應用, 然後進行歸類, 會是比較好的學習方式, 而不是看到就背起來, 只看就背, 馬上就忘, 來回幾次, 就走到放棄了. 當然, 如果老師的評量方式就是明天要考, 回家要背, 又是另外一回事了.
例句一:
Sriram Viswanathan, an Indian-born managing partner at Celesta, a Silicon Valley venture capital fund, describes investors “wanting to fill the vacuum that has been created in the supply chain.”
在印度出生的矽谷風險投資基金Celesta管理合伙人斯裡拉姆·維斯瓦納坦稱,投資者「希望填補供應鏈中出現的真空」。
主結構:s+vt+o+oc
現在分詞片語先返回原形:
今天的主角that壓軸登場:像是that, which, who等關係代名詞, 就都當成錢”代”, 引申出另一種意思. 錢”代”越多, 越能帶來更多錢, 豐富人生.
vacuum that has been created in the supply chain.”
此句的that直接代替了vacuum, 文言文中的形容詞子句, 形容vacuum. 拆成2個小子句如下:
A:Inventors want to fill the vacuum:投資人希望填補真空
B:The vacuum has been created in the supply chain:這個真空出現在供應鏈中
A+B = investors want to fill the vacuum that has been created in the supply chain.
投資者希望填補供應鏈中出現的真空
That子句如果不是當主結構, 而是去形容主結構裏的名詞, 可連想成類似中文的”這個”, 這個≒that.
例句二:
A:The government has doubled down, paying for bricks-and-mortar improvement to the rickety roads, ports and power supply:政府加大投入為狀況不佳的道路、港口和電力供應進行實體改造
B:Rickety roads, ports and power supply once discouraged business investment:這個狀況不佳的道路、港口和電力供應曾經阻礙商業投資
A+B = The government has doubled down, paying for bricks-and-mortar improvement to the rickety roads, ports and power supply that once discouraged business investment.
政府加大投入為狀況不佳、曾經阻礙商業投資的道路、港口和電力供應進行實體改造。
其餘的例句也這個~~這個~~一下吧!!
1. His government plays a markedly interventionist role in managing the economy, in a way that can make it dangerous for firms to place their stakes.
他的政府在管理經濟方面扮演著明顯的干預主義角色,這可能會使企業的投資變得危險。
2. That sent businesses that depend on them into a tailspin, and the measure was almost as suddenly withdrawn.
這讓依賴這些的企業陷入了混亂,該措施而後以幾乎同樣突然的方式撤銷。
