Who引導的非限制性定語從句

Claimtodosth聲稱

Seesbdoingsth

Inthemoonlight類似于inthesun日光都用in因為in事物在范圍之內(nèi)。光發(fā)散，

然后物體是在光里面。比如，inthetorchlight

Intimes=eventually

That引導的名詞從句，it做形式主語

第二個that就是引導定語從句，修飾ghost

Noonesuspectedthattheremightbesomeoneelseonthefarmwhohadneverseen.

1)表猜測時，might和may沒有區(qū)別，只是后者比前者語氣更肯定,might此時不是

may的過去時。要想表達對過去發(fā)生的事情做推測，要用may/mighthavedone

2)may的過去時，用于間接引語

Hesaid'Imaycometomorrow'.------hesaidthathemightcometomorrow

文中句子是第二種用法,suspect間接引語。因為文中強調(diào)那時的人，對那時的想法。

不是現(xiàn)在的人，對過去的事情進行猜測。

Thiswasindeedthecase.

This指前面這一句話

Indeed副詞，確實地

Thecase事實

Ashorttimeago,villagerswereastonishedtolearnthattheghostofEndleyhaddied.

區(qū)別thethird第三個

hidhimuntiltheendofthewar.

Fearingtheauthorities,Ericremainedinhidingafterthewaraswell.

Remain+adv./prep,逗留:TheyremainedinMexicountilJune.

Aswell也

HisfathertoldeverybodythatErichadbeenkilledinaction.

間接引語，闡述事實。Eric被殺是在他爸爸說的這個動作之前發(fā)生的，用過去完成時，

Inaction在行動中

TheonlyotherpeoplewhoknewthesecretwereJoeandBob.

Only唯一，other除他爸爸之外其他的

Who引導定從，修飾people

Theydidnoteventelltheirwives.

Even甚至，強調(diào)

Whentheirfatherdied,theythoughtittheirdutytokeepErichiding.

Thinkit+n./adj.+todosth

It做形式賓語，代替todo

Alltheseyears,Erichadlivedasarecluse.

Hadlived過去完成時，過去的過去，因為Eric死了這個是過去的，在他死之前發(fā)生的

就是過去的過去。

Recluse隱士

Heusedtosleepduringthedayandworkatnight,quiteunawareofthefactthathad

becometheghostofEndleyFarm.

Usedtodosth過去常常做

Duringtheday在白天atnight在晚上

Beawareof意識到unaware沒有意識到

Of介詞不能直接接that名詞從句做賓語，所以要借助the
