语法透视:

原句:The ones I hatched for the science fair.How could I forget?

我在科技展上孵化的，怎么可能忘

结构剖析:

The ones (which) I hatched for the science fair.原文省略了which，这是一个限制性的定语从句。

限制性定语从句是先行词不可缺少的部分，去掉它主句意思往往不明确。

如果原句中去掉I hatched for the science fair，句子的意思就不完整了，所以这是个限制性定语从句。

This is the house which we bought last month.　　　

这是我们上个月买的那幢房子。

而非限制性定语从句是先行词的附加说明，去掉了也不会影响主句的意思，它与主句之间通常用逗号分开。

The house, which we bought last month, is very nice.

这幢房子很漂亮，是我们上个月买的。
