    Notes on the text課文注釋
    1 to take them with me把它們帶上。
    them指"兩本詞典"。
    2 The lady who is standing behind the counter
    這是一個(gè)省略句,完整的句子是“The lady who is standing behind the counter served me.”其中who is standing behind the counter是一個(gè)以關(guān)系代詞who引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句,用來(lái)修飾前面的名詞the lady。
    本課帶有定語(yǔ)從句的復(fù)合句還有:The books which are on the counter; He says he's the man who bought these books: The man who I served was wearing a hat; Is this the man that you served等,其中which, who,whom, that均為關(guān)系代詞。
    3 The man who I served was wearing a hat.
    這是另一個(gè)定語(yǔ)從句的例子。由于被修飾的名詞the man在定語(yǔ)從句中是動(dòng)詞served的賓語(yǔ),因此,關(guān)系代詞應(yīng)該用賓格whom,但在口語(yǔ)中往往用主格who。
