三、连词that的省略问题

引导宾语从句的连词that 通常可以省略：

She said (that) she would come to the meeting. 她说过要来开会的。

I promise you (that) I will be there. 我答应你我会去。

I hoped (that) I would / should succeed. 我曾希望我会成功。

He thinks (that) they will give him a visa. 他想他们会给他签证。

He thought (that) they would give him 3 visa. 他本想他们会给他签证。

I expect (that) the plane will he diverted. 我料想飞机会改变航线。

I expected (that) the plane would be diverted. 我本料想飞机会改变航线。

Everybody knows (that) money doesn't grow on trees. 众所周知，金钱是不会从树上长出来的。

I suggested (that) they should / shouldn't drive along the coast. 我建议他们沿着 / 不要沿着海岸开车。

【注】有时为了强调，that引导的宾语从句可位于句首，此时that不可省略：

That she is a good girl I know. 她是一个好姑娘，我是知道的。

四、宾语从句与否定转移

当动词think, believe, suppose, expect, imagine 后接一个表示否定意义的宾语从句时，其否定通常转移到主语：

I don't suppose that it is true. 我认为那不是真的。

I don't imagine that he will come. 我想他不会来的。

I don't think we need waste much time on it. 我想我们不必在这上面花太多时间

We didn't think we'd be this late. 我们没想到我们会到得这么晚。

I don't suppose I'll trouble you again. 我想我不要再麻烦你了。
