13、d him they were on a train trip across Canada and that they had only one day in Montreal.姑娘们告诉他，她们乘火车旅游，要横穿加拿大，在蒙特利尔只呆一天。在这句话中，一个动词后带了两个宾语从句，一个是 they were on a train trip across Canada, 另一个是 that they had only one day in Montreal.用心 爱心 专心注意，一个动词若带两个宾语从句，第一个宾语从句的引导词 that 可以省略。但是第二个引导词 that 一般不能省略。又如：

16、的句子我们可以看出，同位语从句主要是用来对前面的名词进行解释或说明的。通常在以下名词的后面会出现同位语从句，如：fact, idea, news, question, answer, problem, 等。与其他名词性从句一样，同位语从句的连接词也有三种，即：陈述句用 that 连接，但 that 不能省略;一般疑问句用 whether 连接，但不能用 if 连接。特殊疑问句用特殊疑问词连接。并且，所有的同位语从句都应是陈述句式。我们来看下面的例子：I insisted upon an answer to my question whether he was coming or not.我坚持

18、t true.你听到的消息不真实。 （定语从句）The news that our team has won is true.我们队获胜的消息是真的。 （同位语从句）2）定语从句中的 that 在定语从句中担任句子的成分，通常是主语或宾语，是关系代词。而同位语从句中的 that 不担任句子成分，是从属连词。如：用心 爱心 专心The fact that we talked about is very important. 我们所谈论的事实非常重要。（定语从句）The fact that we succeeded pleased everybody.我们成功了，这一事实让大家很高兴。 （同位语从
