一、that引导定语从句,在从句中充当成分。
1.that在定语从句中作宾语时，往往可省略。如：
(1)John once talked to his mom about the cities(that)he had visited apoad.
在从句中that作visit的宾语，故可以省略。
(2)The homework(that)I finished last night was left at home.
在从句中that作finish的宾语，故可以省略。
2.that在定语从句中作主语时，不可省略。如：
(1)The teacherthatis kind to us goesback home very late every day.
在从句中that作主语，故不可以省略。
(2)My old schoolthatwas located in the suburban was razed to the ground.
在从句中that作主语，故不可以省略。

(1)Attitudes towards daydreaming are changing in much the same way (that ) (in which) attitudes towards night dreaming have changed.
(2)I like the music for the very reason (that ) (for which) he dislike it.
(3)We arrived the day (that ) (on which) they left.
二、that引导名词性从句时，充当连词，本身无实际意义。
1. that在引导宾语从句时，通常可省略。如：
We know (that) sound can travel through air.
that引导的从句在主句中充当know的宾语，故为宾语从句，此时that可以省略。
但：(1)在介词短语后的宾语从句中that常不可省略，且前面往往有个形式宾语it。如:
You may depend on it that they will support your plan.
See to it that you arrive at the railway station on time.
(2)两个宾语从句连用时，即使省略了第一个that，也不可省略第二个that。如：
I believe (that) you’ve done your best and that things will get better.
(3)在双宾语结构中，that从句充当直接宾语或是间接宾语时，不可以省略that。如：
He has told me that he will go to Shanghai tomorrow.

that引导表语从句，that不可以省略。
(3)That youdidn’tgo to the party was a pity.
that引导主语从句，that不可以省略。

(4)It was a pity (that) youdidn’tgo to the party.
三、that引导状语从句时，充当连词，有时也可省略。
1.在结果状语从句中，that有时可以省略。如：
The sound is so weak(that)you can’t hear it.
