这个 in what 应如何理解 本站特约作者 陈根花 刚才打开信箱,收到《英语语法网》的编辑老师发来一封邮件,说是有位读者朋友遇到一个含有in what 的句子,不好理解,要我帮助分析一下。问题是这样的(见http://yingyu.chazidian.com=292):http://yingyu.chazidian.com 有句子如下: …but since the porter agreed with him, she rang up her daughter and asked for her help in what she described as a little spot of bother. 语法书上说 what 做关系代词,这就不好理解了,这个 in what 引导的究竟是什么句啊?我记得 what 是不用于引导定语从句的吧。谢谢! 正如《英语语法网》的管理员在回答中所说,此句选自《新概念英语》第三册第 58 课,其完整句为: The old lady thought he was a fussy creature, but since the porter agreed with him, she rang up her daughter and asked for her help in what she described as a little spot of bother. 句子大意为:老太太觉得他(指巡官)大惊小怪(或过于紧张),但既然看门人也同意他的意见,她就给女儿打了电话求援,说她碰到了一点儿小麻烦。 【分析】 |
