Question

这句中，that 的意思是甚么？

Answer 1

第一要注意的是 now that 是两字一起的，例句中有两个分句（clause） I am understanding physics much better （main clause） now that Mr Davies is teaching us. （adverb clause） 不错，now that 意思是 for the reason that，是有「因为」的意思。不过 now that 同时表示分句所表述的情况是跟以前不同的。 now that 指出处境改变有新的因素令结果（main clause 所述）出现。 now that Mr Davies is teaching us 表示不久前教我们的不是 Mr Davies。 以前答过类似问题，再列举用过的例句。 (.knowledge.yahoo/question/question?qid=7012083000938) He has more time now that he is retired. In this sentence
that he is retired is the reason for his having more time. "Now that" tells us that he was still working some time ago. Now that my daughter is big enough to take care of herself
I do not need a full-time maid. Again
this sentence tells of a change of condition
i.e.
my daughter has grown up.
[email protected] I AM UNDERSTANDING physics much better... May I also say garlic IS BELONGING to Yahoo Knowledge?
这个 that 是同前面的 now 合起来用，意思大概是「既然」。
that 的意思是同时
that=pronoun=the person mentioned=Mr.Daviies.
maybe is 因为. 因为佢应该是解释后面果句
