Question

that引导从句时可以省略吗？

Answer 1

that在下列情况下可以省略：

1、宾语从句中的that可以省略；

2、定语从句中假如引导词that在从句中充当宾语，可以省略。

例如：

宾语从句：I promise that I will study hard.这里的that可以省略。

定语从句：This is the factory that we visited yesterday.这里的that可以省略。

但是在这句中：This is the factory that lies in Guangzhou.这里的that做主语，不能省略。

以下情况不可省略：

1、that引导主语从句、表语从句、同位语从句时不能省略。

2、宾语从句不止一个时，不能省略。如：they complain(that)they have to do homework from morning till night, that it is hard to study good, that they are very tired.that是连续的宾语从句时，第一个可省，后面的不行。

3、宾语从句与主语之间有插入语时，不可省。如：the teacher said, happy and firmly, that we must do homework.
