单词 | whose(of which) |
释义 | whose : of which — 876 前者这个物主形容词是 who 和 which 的所有格形式,所以既可修饰人——包括动物,又可修饰物(参见词目 877 )。如果被引导的定语从句中,那个先行词既不是人又不是动物,那就得使用后者这个短语了。 例如: Whose dictionary is this? 这是谁的词典?(是指人) This is the cow whose legs are broken. 这就是断了腿的母牛?(是指牲口) This is the plant whose flowers are on the table. 这种植物长的花就放在桌上。(是指物) We climbed a mountain, the top of which was covered with snow. 我们爬上了上面盖满白雪的山顶。 There are two left, one of which is almost finished and the other of which is not quite. 有两个剩下;一个差不多完了,另一个还没有完。 |
