不定式的结构分析

It’s reported that the city needs more land _____.

A. on which to build houses











B. on which building houses
C. which to build houses
















D. which to build houses on
此题答案为
A
，许多同学不明白此句是什么结构。 简单地说，这是一个紧缩了的定语从句，这类
结构可归纳为“介词

关系代词

不定式”形式。在正式文体中，当引导定语从句的关系代词用
作介词的宾语时，有时可用“介 词

关系代词
+
不定式”这样的结构来简化定语从句。如：

She must have time in which she can grow calm.
=She must have time in which to grow calm.
她必须有冷静下来时的时间。

Allow me one minute in which I can change my clothes.
=Allow me one minute in which to change my clothes.
给我一点时间换衣服。

He was miserable unless he had neighbors with whom he could quarrel.
=He was miserable unless he had neighbors with whom to quarrel.
他要是没有邻居吵架就难受。

She had some money in the bank, with which she could help her mother.
=She had some money in the bank, with which to help her mother.
她银行里有些钱用来帮助她的母亲。

若语义清楚，

“介词

(
介词要 移至不定式之后，
且当先行词为表时间的名词时，
该介词通常省略
)
。
