回答如下:
连接词that可以引导名词从句(
主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句和
同位语从句),它在名词从句中无词义,不作任何成分。that引导主语从句时,若其置于句首,that不能省略; 若其置于主句之后,即前面用it作形式主语时,则that可以省略。例如:
That he is ill is true = It is true (that) he is ill.
that 引导宾语从句时,通常可以省略。但
谓语动词与宾语从句之间或者that从句之间有插入词语时,that不能省略; 若动词的宾语是两个以上的that从句,第一个that可以省略,其余的that不能省略; 若that从句前有形式宾语it+宾补,则that不能省略。例如:
He said (that) he was 45.
He told us, for the first time, that he was dismissed by the boss.
He told me that, if he was free, he would come to my help.
He said (that) he was 72 and that his wife was 68.
I feel it a pity that you missed the chance.
that引导表语从句时,通常不能省略。但在非正式英语中有省略现象。另外,前面的主语从句中有行为动词do时,引导表语从句的that可以省略。例如:
What we will do next is (that) we will have more people know the fact.
The truth is (that) he lied to all of us.
that引导同位语从句时,that不能省略。例如:
We know the fact that he is fired.
The news came that he had won the prize.
追问谢谢,补充说明:
语法规定,that 引导主语从句,在句首时不可省略that。当it 作形式主语,在口语和非正式文体中,that 偶尔可以省略,尤其多见于非常短的句子中。不过,为了正确起见,建议最好不要省略。
