- 问一个句型转换Whatwecannotgetseemsbette
- What we can not get se better than what we already have
为什么不能转换为It seems better than what we have what we can not get
- 其实看看就觉得不怎么舒服了。
事实上,有这样一条规则:
当主语从句是由what引导的,而且谓语动词是连系动词尤其是be动词时,不能用it作形式主语,并且将主语从句后置。
e.g.: What you said was/seemed/appeared true.(correct)
It was/seemed/appeared true what you said.(wrong)
通过以下一题也可说明此规则的正确。
It is your ability ______ matters. A) what B) that
答案为B,此题是一个强调句。如果无上述的语法规则,那么A也无错误之处了。
另外,还有:
当主语和表语同为动词不定式、动名词或名词性从句时,不能用it作形式主语,并且将词不定式、动名词或名词性从句后置。
e.g.: To live is to struggle.(correct)
It is to struggle to live./It is to live to struggle.(wrong)
Seeing is believing.(correct)
It is believing seeing./It is seeing believing.(wrong)
