He knows three foreign languages, namely, English, Japanese and Spanish.
但是有些詞或短語(yǔ)可插在句子中,不用逗號(hào)隔開(kāi)。例如:

三、表示疑問(wèn)的插入語(yǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)
含think, suppose, guess, say, imagine, expect, believe等動(dòng)詞的疑問(wèn)句,后接含疑問(wèn)詞的賓語(yǔ)從句時(shí),要將疑問(wèn)詞放在句首。例如:
Whom do you think I should see first?
這一結(jié)構(gòu)可改為:Whom should I see first, do you think?
He made another wonderful discovery, ________of great importance to science.
A. which I think is B. which I think it is
C. which I think it D. I think is [Key: A]
這里I think是插入語(yǔ)。which引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句,故選A。
