e.g.Itseemsasifitwerespringalready.

似乎春天已经来了。2）引导表语从句的常见关联词有连接代词who,which,whatever等，连接副词how,why,whenever等，从属连词：as,that,whether等。e.g.Theproblemiswhowecangettoreplaceher.

问题是我们找谁来代替她。Theproblemishowwecanfindhim.

问题是我们如何找到他。Thefactisthatwehavenoideatosolvethisproblem.

事实是我们不知道怎么解决这个问题。Thequestioniswhethertheywillhelpus.

问题是他们会不会帮助我们。3）引导表语从句的that通常不省略，但在口语或非正式文体中有时也可省略。e.g.Thetroubleis(that)heisill.麻烦的是他生病了。2ListentothestoryofRuthBancroftandcompletethesentenceswithpredicativeclauses.Listenagainifnecessary.1Onereasonwhythegardenisuniqueis________________________________________________________________________________.2Anotherreasonforitsuniquenessis___________________________________________________________________________________.3Thedrought-resistantplantswiththick,fleshyleavesbecame_______________________________________________________________.4AlthoughWalnutCreekwasnot______________________________________________________________________________________,Ruthmanagedtogrowthembymuchtrialanderror.5Itseemed________________________________________________________________________________________________________.6Thosefive-starreviewsprove________________________________________________________________________________________.thatitcomprisesanarrayofplantsadaptedtodryconditionsthatitisthelife’sworkofonlyonewoman:RuthBancroftwhatshewasmostinterestedinwheretheygrewnaturallyasthoughnothingwouldeverstopherfromcontinuingthisworkhowmuchvisitorsadmirehergarden3Rewritetheunderlinedsentencesusingpredicativeclauses.MeiLanfang(1894-1961)MeiLanfangwasbornintoafamilyofPekingandKunquOperaperformersin1894.Attheageofeight,hestartedtraininginPekingOperaonadailybasis.Whenhewas17,hekeptaflockofpigeonsandtrainedthemtoflyhigh.EverydayMeiwatchedthemastheyflew,whichhelpedhimtodeveloptheexpressiveeyemovementsthatweresocrucialtohisart.
