Who the watch belongs to was lost is unknown.Who the watch belongs to was lost是主语从句,is unknown是系表结构.主语从句省略了that,Who the watch belongs to (that) was lost,(that) was lost是watch的定语从句,watch是先行词,这是一个后置定语.
追问:
什么情况下,That可以省略,麻烦详解,
回答:
that引导宾语从句和定语从句时一般可以省略,在主语从句、状语从句、表语从句等中一般不能省略.主要是要看that在句子中起的作用,如果起指代作用而且其所指代的部分在句子中出现,that就可以省略.也就是主要看that在句子中是否做成分,这个成分有没有别的词充当,如果有就可以省,如果没有就不能省.eg:That is what the story of mankind has on the whole been like.He is ashamed that he was rude.
