Notes on the text 课文注释

1. to take them with me

to take them with me 把它们带上。them 指“两本词典”。

2. The lady who is standing behind the counter.

这是一个省略句,完整的句子是“The lady who is standing behind the counter served me.”其中 who is standing behind the counter 是一个以关系代词 who 引导的定语从句,用来修饰前面的名词 the lady。本课带有定语从句的复合句还有: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 均为关系代词。

3. The man who I served was wearing a hat.

这是另一个定语从句的例子。由于被修饰的名词 the man 在定语从句中是动词 served 的宾语,因此,关系代词应该用宾格 whom,但在口语中往往用主格 who。
