There was a general bustle, a rustling of the womens gowns and shuffling of the mens feet, greatly at variance with that hushed repose which should attend the entrance of the minister.
that在句中应该不充当成分也没含义?
which引导的从句有的看不知道,先行词是repose吗?which是从句的主语,那就是repose should attend the entrance of the minister 翻译起来仿佛也不对。
There was a general bustle, a rustling of the womens gowns and shuffling of the mens feet, greatly at variance with that hushed repose which should attend the entrance of the minister.
1 that为指示代词,作定语修饰repose。
2 which引导限制性定语从句,并在从句中作主语。定语从句的理解重点是动词attend的词义。attend在此很正式的使用方法,为及物动词,意为:to happen at the same time as something,toexistwith something else, or tohappenas aresultof it 与...同时发生,与...同时存在,因...而发生。比如:
She dislikes the loss of privacy that attends TV celebrity.她不喜欢当了电视名人后随之而来的没隐私。
Secondarysymptomsusuallyattend thedisease.该病常伴有继发症状。
本句中的entrance不是入口,而是进入、亮相。the entrance of the minister意为”部长的到来“。
that hushed repose which should attend the entrance of the minister.
随着部长的到来而呈现的那种安静。
