just the sounds of wind rustling the tree leaves and red squirrels chattering in the distant oaks and cool creek water rushing down its endless course:红色部分是3个并列的“动名词复合结构”,作of 的宾语。粗体动名词之前的名词,是各自的逻辑主语。破折后之后的部分与“存在句”没有关系了,不可能是there be 的...

把冠词the 改为 a,同样正确:This is the bag that I like.This is a bag that I like.这还是归结到不定冠词“表泛指”,定冠词“表特指”的规则上来。翻译成汉语就是:This is the bag that I like.这是我喜欢的(那个)包。(对话双方都知道的那个包)This is a bag that I like.这是我喜欢的(一个)包。(泛指我喜欢的一个...
