介詞后面也能接名詞性從句。從字面上來看,名詞性從句也就是一個句子整體上做介詞后面的名詞成分。所以,只要我們能夠抓住名詞性從句的特征,就能一眼識別出來,從而迅速將復雜的句子變得簡單。
我們要知道,引導名詞性從句的引導詞通常有what, who,why,where,how,when,if,whether等。其中, what、who和why后面只要接動詞就可以成為名詞性從句,而其他的引導詞必須要加上主語和動詞才能構成名詞性從句。
There are differences in what you and Lily saw.
“in what you and Lily saw”就是介詞+ 名詞性從句的結構,因此,可以將它刪去。這個句子就變成了There are differences.
