1.…but I forgot to take them with me.……但是我忘了拿走。 forget to do sth.表示“忘了做某事”,them指两本字典。 2.put it on,戴上它。 这里的 it指 a hat,以避免重复。 put on是“戴上”、“穿上”的意思。如果它的宾语是一个名词,这个名词可放在 put on之后,也可放在put和on之间。如果是代词,就必须放在put和on 之间。如: Put on your coat./Put your coat on. 穿上外衣。 但只能说: Put it on. 把它穿上。
语法 Grammar in use 定语从句 定语从句像形容词一样起修饰作用,但位于所修饰的名词之后。定语从句由关系代词引导,紧跟在它所修饰的成分后面。关系代词 who,whom与 that修饰人,which与 that修饰东西。关系代词指代从句的主语或宾语,同时又充当连接词,把从句和主句连接起来。请看例句: (1) 关系代词作从句的主语(who/which/that): The dog which/that is carrying the basket is mine. 叼着篮子的那只狗是我的。 He's the porter who/that carried my suitcase. 他就是那个扛着我的衣箱的搬运工。 (2)关系代词作从句的宾语(whom/that/which): They're the windows which/that the children broke yesterday. 这些就是孩子们昨天打碎的窗户。 She's the lady whom I served yesterday. 她就是我昨天服务过的那位女士。
