名词 dream 后面可以接 where 引导的定语从句,此时的 where 相当于 in which。如:He had a dream where / in which a lion was chasing him in the forest. 他做了一个梦,梦见在森林里有一只狮子追他。名词 dream 后面可以接 that 引导的同位语从句。如比如上面一句也可说成:He had a dream that a lion was chasing him in the forest.更多例句如:Paulhad a dream that he won the lottery. 保罗梦见自己彩票中了奖。I’ve had a dream that they’re going to kill you. 我梦见他们准备杀害你。I had a dream that I was in an old study, surrounded by leather books. 我梦见我在一间古老的书房里,四周全是皮装书。也就是说,网友的句子填 where 或 that 均可:填 where 是把 dream 当作一个抽象的地点看作,此时的 where=in which,引导定语从句;若填 that,则引导同位语从句,表示 dream 的具体内容。

only 在句中的位置比较复杂。简单地说,为避免误解,only 通常放在它所修饰的词语之前。但有时 only 也可放在它所修饰的词语之后,比如当它所修饰的词语位于句末时:The medicine is used only externally. 这种药只能外用。The medicine is used externally only. 这种药只能外用。Ice cream is on special only this week. 冰淇淋仅古本周内特价优惠。Ice cream is on special this week only. 冰淇淋仅古本周内特价优惠。另外,only位于句末的用法还经常出现在公告或标识语中:Ladies only. 只限女士。Admission by ticket only. 凭票入场。For external application only. 仅限外用。Admittance is by invitation only. 非请莫入。Parking is for customers only. 车位仅供顾客使用。This area is for pedestrians only. 此处只许步行。在英语口语中,人们通常把 only 词放在动词(实义动词)前面,通过重读 only 所修饰的词语来体现所要强调的含义:He had written only three books. 他只写了三本书。He had written three books only. 他只写了三本书。He had only written 'three books. 他只写了三本书。但是,在书面语中(无法通过重读来体现强调的情况下),如果没有明确的上下文语境暗示,直接将 only 放在动词前,则有可能产生歧义。比如 Swan 在其 PEU 中就认为下面一句是有歧义的:I only kissed your sister last night.

I wonder if he doesn't know the news.网友的句子没有问题。if(是否)引导宾语从句时,从句通常用肯定式,但有也可以用否定式。Swan 在 PEU 中认为从句中这个 not 是 extra 的,并认为下面两句“相等”:I wonder if we should ask the doctor to look at Mary. I wonder if we shouldn’t ask the doctor to look at Mary. 但也有人认为这类句子从句有没有not,在含义上有细微区别,以网友的例子为例:a. I wonder if he knows the news. 我想知道他是否知道这个消息。b. I wonder if he doesn't know the news. 我想知道他是否知道这个消息。虽然两句的翻译是一样的,但两者是有细微区别的:a 句的意思大家比较熟悉,指他可能知道这个消息,也可能不知道这个消息,但倾向于认为“他不知道这个消息”。而 b 句则暗示一定的肯定意味,即暗示他知道的可能性较大,也就是说倾向于认为“他知道这个消息(不会不知道)”。

All of which begs the question as to who will fund the project.句中的 which 是仍是关系代词,这种用法主要见于非正式文体,与 this 或 that 大致同义,用以代替前面提到过的内容,通常的用法应该是:..., all of which begs the question as to who will fund the project.但在非正式文体中,有时也将这种非限制性定语从句独立成句,网友的句子就属于这种情况:All of which begs the question as to who will fund the project. 所有的这一切使人想提出这样一个问题:谁来为这项工程提供资金。另举几例如下:He claimed I was jealous of Elliott. Which was a manifestly baseless accusation. 他断定说我嫉妒艾略特。这显然是毫无根据的指责。Mary is enormously respected. Which is not to say you are not an exceptionally able lady. 玛丽非常受尊重,但这并是说你不是一位极为能干的女士。They ran out of drink. Which actually didn’t bother me because I wasn’t drinking. 他们把酒喝完了。但实际上这对我来说无所谓,因为我不喝酒。As it says in the Bible, my cup is running over. Talking of which, I must get you a cup of tea. 正如《圣经》所说,给我恩赐太多了,我的杯子已经满满当当了。说到杯子,我得去给你倒杯茶来。

like home 和 like a home 都可以说,但稍有区别:前面(like home)没有冠词,其含义比较抽象;后者(like a home)有冠词,其含义比较具体。比较下面两组句子:1. 没有冠词的例子:This place really feels like home. 这地方真的有种家的感觉。There’s no place like home. 任何地方都没有家好。/金窝银窝,不如自己的草窝2. 有冠词的例子:Our new house doesn’t feel like a home yet. 我们的新家感觉还不像家。We want this to be like a home, not an institution. 我们希望这里像个家,而不像收容所。Bit by bit, our apartment started to look like a home. 渐渐地,我们的房子看上去开始像个家了。注:home 的以上用法多少有点类似 school, church, prison 等的相关用法(比较 in school 与 in the school)。

是的,一般说来,一个动词前面最多可以有四个助动词,网友的句子理论上是对的,但总的说来,这类用法比较少见:Jim must have been being told while I was outside. 我在外面的时候一定有人在告诉吉姆。但更通常的说法应该是:Someone must have been telling Jim while I was outside. 当然,有时因特定语境的需要,人们也会选用这种表达:The cake must have been being baked. 当时蛋糕一定正在烤着。

网友句子中的 to be 可以省略,也可以保留。所以下面两句都对(但以省略 to be 的用法更普通):When we arrived, we found her crying in the corner.When we arrived, we found her to be crying in the corner.也有人认为,当要强调检验或调査的结果时,通常要加上 to be,但在实际应用,人们也不一定遵循此用法。

网友句中的where 引导的是地点状语从句,where 的意思是“在……的地方”,可视为其前省略了 in (the) places。句意:在气候很冷无法种水稻的地方,农民们就种马铃薯。不知网友的句子摘自什么地方,感觉句子应在 cold 前面加上 too 才合适。

千千老师的解答是有依据的。比如在夸克等人合著的“语法大全”中就有相应的讲解:夸克等人虽然认为 until, till 不能后接 -ing 分词来表示前跨(For forward span, there are nonfinite -ed clauses with until and till, but not -ing clauses),但他在所给的例句前面用的不是“星号”(不可接受),而是“问号”(趋向于不能接受但又不是完全不可以接受),这也印证了好题老师所给出的 until doing 的相关报刊例句。正由于夸克在 until doing 的用法趋向于不能接受但又不是完全不可以接受(所以在相关例句前面使用“问号”而非“星号”),所以也有些比较“激进”的语法著作认为 until doing 的用法是“正确”的,比如 Collins COBUILD English Guides: 9. Linking Words就认为 until doing 是没有问题的:
