1704790536 【解答】应改为 Li Po is one of the greatest poets that have ever lived in China.才对,因为 that 指 poets,不是指 one,所以要接复数动词。当然依照文法来看,of the greatest poets,原是一个形容词一般的修饰语句,不能视为主语字的,例如:
1704790537
1704790538 She was watching some pieces of linen cloth which were stretched out on the grass for the purpose of bleaching.(她正在看守着一些晒在草地上来漂白的麻布。)
1704790539
1704790540 句中 were 就是接承 pieces 的动词,如果接 cloth 的话就要用 was,可见 of the cloth 是用来修饰 pieces 的形容词,主体还是 pieces 呢。只有“one of+名词”是一个例外,后面附句中的动词的数,不以 one,而以“of”后的名词为准,这在文法上虽讲不过去,但在逻辑上是极其合理的。因为 one of the poets 是其中之一,他是诗人,其余的人也都是诗人,不能把他看作例外的。我们也可以说 one 与 poets 是有同一性的,但 pieces 与 cloth 却是判然不同的两件事物。再请看下列例句:
1704790541
1704790542 There are many breaches of custom which are not condemned by law or by religion,but which are forbidden by public opinion and punished by the disapproval of the community.(有许多破坏习俗的行为,并不受法律或宗教的指责,而是受舆论所禁止,因大众的非难而受到处罚。)

1704790544 It was one of those trains which give you an understanding of eternity.—— A. G. Gardiner(那是使人懂得什么是永远的那种火车之一。)
1704790545
1704790546 但如果在 one 之前加有冠词等的话,情形就完全不同了,例如:
1704790547
1704790548 This is the one of the books on the subject that has ever been written in Chinese.(这是关于这个问题用中文写的一本代表作。)
1704790549
1704790550 She is the only one of the few girls of my acquaintance that is acquainted with the old poet.(她是我认识的极少数的女子中与那老诗人相识的唯一的一个。)
1704790551
1704790552 在以上二例中,第一句中的“that”是指“the one”不是指“books”的,所以动词用“has”;而第二句中的“that”是指“the only one”,不是指“girls”的,所以动词用“is”。这是特别加重 the one 及 the only one 的缘故,才使得后面的动词与之一致的,说话者的心目中只有那一本书,或那一个女子,其观念是单一的,自然用的动词也变成单数了。有时甚至不加冠词,也不能说是绝对的错,因为至少在文法上是说得过去的。

1704790558 英文疑难详解 75.动词后接表示动作的字可分三种
1704790559
1704790560 A travel agency announced not to accept any more bookings for tourist travel to China.(旅行社公告不再接受前往中国游览的订票。)这句英文据说是错误的,但不知错在什么地方?
1704790561
1704790562 【解答】英文的动词后面表示动作时接什么字句是有一定的,大约可以分为三类:第一类是接不定词,第二类是接名词子句或名词,第三类是二者皆可。例如:
1704790563
1704790564 (1) He agreed to go at once.(他同意立刻去。)
1704790565
1704790566 (2) He admits that the accusation is just.(= He admits the justice of the accusation.)(他承认这种控告是正当的。)
1704790567
1704790568 (3) He likes to read (or reading)novels.(他喜欢读小说。)
1704790569
1704790570 质问中的 announce 一字是属于第二类,现当作第一类来接不定词的 to accept,当然不对,应改为:
1704790571
1704790572 A travel agency announced that it would not accept any more bookings for tourist travel to China.
1704790573
1704790574 这是接的名词子句,如果换上单纯的名词则成为:
1704790575
1704790576 A travel agency announced its decision not to accept any more bookings for tourist travel to China.
1704790577
1704790578 在上句中是接的 decision 一个名词。此字作动词用时,是属于第一类,如:
1704790579
1704790580 It had been decided,a travel agency announced,not to accept any more bookings for tourist travel to China.
1704790581
1704790582 “通知开饭”是 announce dinner,“通知客到”是 announce guests,“宣布结婚”是 It has been announced that Mr. A and Miss B will be married next Sunday.
