151.At the beginning of the year, the city allocated $150 million to cover the increase in wages that it expected to approve as a result of negotiations with the municipal labor unions. (A) increase in wages that it expected to approve as a result of negotiations (B) increased wages it expected to approve from negotiations (C) increasing wages expected to be approved as a result of negotiating (D) negotiated increases in wages it expected to approve (E) increases expected to be approved in wages from negotiating 答案是A,没有问题。 请教:定语从句先行词that指代的成分在从句中作宾语的话,that能省略吗?? 比如这里的B,D选项:increased wages (that)it expected to approve from negotiations这里明显省略了that。姑且不管B,D选项中的其他错误,关于这个用法是不是对呢???
the increase in wages (that) it expected to approve... 这种情况, that是increase的关系代词, 在定语从句中作approve的宾语, 将that省略不改变句意, 而且也无歧义产生, 所以可以省略, 但是: 我感觉在这一点上, 如果不省略that, ETS也不会认为是冗赘.
