引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句的what
1. 表特指
所謂表特指,就是說(shuō)此時(shí)的what 在用法上大致相當(dāng)于the。如:
What money I have will be yours when I die. = The money I have will be yours when I die. 我一死我的錢(qián)就都給你。
What possessions I have are yours.=The possessions I have are yours. 我的所有的財(cái)產(chǎn)都是你的。
2. 表“微量”
有時(shí)不僅表特指,而且還表“微量”,即含有“量不多”之意。如果將“特指”和“微量”結(jié)合起來(lái),該結(jié)構(gòu)的意思就是“雖不多,但全部”,有時(shí)可譯為“僅有”。如:
What ideas he has are his wife’s. 他僅有的一點(diǎn)想法都是他妻子的。
What friends she has are out of the country. 她有的那些朋友全在國(guó)外。
這類“what+名詞”結(jié)構(gòu)并不是總具有“微量性”,即有時(shí)有,有時(shí)沒(méi)有。如果要想明確或強(qiáng)化這種微量性特點(diǎn),我們可以該結(jié)構(gòu)的名詞前加上表示微量的修飾語(yǔ)few(用于復(fù)數(shù)名詞前)或little(用于不可數(shù)名詞前)。如:
What few friends she has are out of the country.=The few friends she has are out of the country. 她僅有的幾個(gè)朋友都在國(guó)外。
What little free time he had was spent with the family.= The little free time he had was spent with the family. 他僅有的一點(diǎn)空余時(shí)間都是與家人在一起度過(guò)的。
