committee 作为集合名词,若视为整体,表单数意义;若考虑其个体,则表示复数意义。有时连用单数或复数动词均可,只是侧重点不同,如网友的句子:The committee has / have agreed to submit its report. 委员会已同意提交报告。又如:The committee has / have decided to close the restaurant. 委员会已决定关闭这家餐馆。但在某些语境中,可能用单数或复数更合适:The committee is made up of ten persons. 这个委员会由十人组成。The committee are divided in opinion. 委员们意见不一致。若后接定语从句,视为复数时,关系代词用who;视为单数时,关系代词用that或which:The committee who were [which was] responsible for this decision would consider it over again. 对这一决定负责的委员会是会重新考虑它的。

你的两个句子都没有问题,即原句是对的,改写后的句子也是对的:正:John’s salary as a bus driver was much higher than that of a teacher. 正:John’s salary as a bus driver was much higher than a teacher's.约翰是名汽车司机,他的工资曾比教师的工资高得多。又如:A grandparent’s job is easier than that of a parent. 祖父母的任务比父母的任务要轻松一些。The mindset of that generation was definitely more obedient than today's. 那一代人的思维模式比现在的人的肯定要更顺从。下面摘录PEU一个例句:

whose 在本质上相当于物主代词 one's,很显然 one's 前面是可以连用介词的(如果语境需要的话),这样的用法太常见了。如:She lives with her mom and dad. 她和爸爸妈妈一起住。Dan covered his face with his hands. 丹用双手捂住脸。Too much tea is bad for your digestion. 喝太多的茶会妨碍消化。同理,whose 引导定语从句时前面也完全可以连用介词(如果语境需要的话)。如:I'm not in the least bit interested in whose fault it is. 对于是谁的错,我一点儿也不感兴趣。There is a case with whose problem we will deal. 这个事件是包含需要我们去解决的问题。The family at whose house we stayed were friends of my father’s. 我们曾住过的那家的主人是我父亲的朋友。I apologized to the woman on whose toe I stepped while dancing. 我向在跳舞的时候踩到她脚趾的那位女士道歉。The surgeon on whose skill her life depended came to this country from Sweden. 他的技术救了她的生命的那位外科医生从瑞典到本国来了。

这是由名词 sight 加后缀 ed 变化来的。名词 sight 的意思是“视力”,而后缀 -ed 可以接在名词后面表示“有……(having, possessing)”,所 sighted 的意思是“有视力的”(having the ability to see):

一般说来,一个名词用于另一个名词前作定语,作定语的名词应该用单数,但也有例外的:虽然通常用单数,但有时也用复数(有时只能用复数,有时用单数或复数都可以)。对于网友的句子,用 greetings card 或 greeting card 都可以:People send each other greeting cards at Christmas. 人们在圣诞节互赠贺卡。People send each other greetings cards at Christmas. 人们在圣诞节互赠贺卡。参考资料:

你的分析基本是对的,只是句子开头的 Wish 并非是祈使句,而是省略了主语 I 省略句。

句子有错,因为 notify 后面通常要先接 sb 作宾语,然后接再 that 从句,而不能直接跟 that 从句。即:The college notified him that he was awarded a scholarship. 学校通知他说他已获得奖学金。

admire 后面通常不接不定式作宾语,但有时可后接动名词(通常有逻辑主语)。如:They all admired his believing in that manner. 他们都赞赏他那样做。
