It is a clever child who can go to college at the age of 12.
请问这个句子怎么样剖析?who引导的是什么从句?或者说这是强调句吗?
▲猜测:我有一个不成熟的怎么看,这里的 who 是不是是引导一个主语从句,此处的 who 等于whoever,即:
It is a clever child who can go to college at the age of 12.
=Whoever can go to college at the age of 12 is clever .
=Anyone who can go to college at the age of 12 is clever .
=Any child who can go to college at the age of 12 is clever.
即:其他人只须能在12岁上大学,那他就是个聪明的孩子。
但我手头没查到类似的例句,只不过个人的不成熟推断。
▲说明:who 当作 whoever 在现代英语中比较少见,但此使用方法确实存在。譬如以下各句摘自《薄冰高级英语语法》第4.39节:
Who breaks pays. 损害须赔偿。
Tom may marry who he likes. 汤姆可以与任何他喜欢的人结婚。
You are not who I thought you were. 你已不是我过去所想像的人。
