專門替中國人寫的英語語法11-2：以that開始的名詞子句

　　11-2 以that開始的名詞子句

　　現(xiàn)在我們先試著翻譯以下的句子：

　　地球是圓的是眾所周知的事。

　　一種直接了當(dāng)?shù)姆g是：

　　*The earth is round is known to everyone.

　　遺憾的是，以上的句子是不對，我們必須加一個that到名詞子句里去，以下的翻譯是正確的：

　　That the earth is round is known to everyone.

　　我們再來翻譯一個中文句子：

　　我要求他一定要用功念書。

　　直接了當(dāng)?shù)姆g可能像下面的：

　　*I demand he must work hard.

　　這是錯的，我們應(yīng)該加一個that在這個名詞子句的前面。以下的翻譯才是正確的：

　　I demand that he must work hard.

　　雖然我們?？吹竭@種that被省略的情形，我們?nèi)韵Ｍ蠹抑?，為保險起見，最好不要省掉that。以下是一些例子：

　　That the sun rises from the west is wrong.(太陽從西方升起是錯的)

　　That a lot of Jews were killed during the Second World War is now a historical fact.(大批猶太人在第二次大戰(zhàn)中被殺是歷史上的事實)
