Step 1 The introduction to the text

  In our daily life, many public places are necessary to us, such as the bank, the library, the drugstore, the department store and the mall. In the bank we can save money or get money. The library is a place where we can borrow or read books. When you are ill, you can buy medicine either in the hospital or in the drugstore. In the mall, we can not only do some shopping but also do something to relax ourselves, like watching movies and listening to music. Watertown is children’s favorite place, because they can swim and go down the world’s largest water slides in Watertown. Whenever we go, we can’t throw trash about or make much noise. It’s our duty to keep public places quiet and clean.

I am disappointed that our class didn't win the basketball game.

二.三要素:语序、连接词、时态。

三.宾语从句的语序

宾语从句的语序是陈述句语序,即:连接代词/副词+主语+谓语+其他成分。看看下面句子的语序是否正确。

1.Would you please tell me when will the train leave?(福建晋江)(F)

2.The policeman asked the boy what was his father. (广东)(F)

(一)that引导的宾语从句,that可以省略。

注意:在以下情况中that不能省略

1.当句中的动词后接多于两个由that引导的宾语从句时,第一个that可省,但后面的that不可省。

He said (that) we would go to West Hill for a picnic tomorrow and that Maria would go with us.

2.当主句的谓语动词与that宾语从句之间有插入语时,that一般不可省。

I noticed, for the first time, that my mom had lots of grey hairs.

3.当that从句是双宾语中的直接宾语时,that不可省。

Jimmy told me that he would return to the USA for Christmas Day.

注意事项:在许多带宾语补足语的句子,that引导的宾语从句经常移到句子后部,用it作形式宾语。
