Susan is ______ as an "addlehead"——she always leaves her keys on the door.
答案是:what is known
但我不理解,为什么不能选择 whom is known
这题的解析是:在表语从句中,who/whom/which不能既连接从句又充当从句中的主语或宾语,
对这个解析完全不明白是什么意思。
原本表语从句的引导词比如who/whom/which不是一般都充当成分,同时也连接从句的吗?
what在这里属于一种特殊情况吗?
这里填 what is known(不能填 whom is known),因为 what 可以用作复合连接代词(而whom不可以),相当于 a / the person who。即:
Susan is what is known as an "addlehead"——she always leaves her keys on the door.
=Susan is a person who is known as an "addlehead"——she always leaves her keys on the door.
