Love means that I care about the welfare of the person I love. To the extent that it is genuine, my caring is not a smothering of the person or a possessive clinging.
To the extent that it is genuine,请老师剖析下,这是定语从句吗?
如何有关系代词that了,还有it呢?that不是代表extent吗?有两个主语了?
To the extent that it is genuine, my caring is not a smothering of the person or a possessive clinging.
To the extent that it is genuine 为评注性状语,为说话人对自己句子的注解。其中that从句为限制性同位语从句,that为从属连词,不作成分; it为人称代词指代前文的love; extent在此为程度的意思。that从句可改为of+动名词复合结结构表示同位关系:To the extent ofit being genuine。这个状语是说话人讲解下面句子是针对这个爱的程度而言的。在我的爱达到了真爱如此的程度的首要条件下,我的关爱不会让我爱的人感到窒息,也不会让我爱的人成为我拥有些附属物。
