英语专业八级改错中的语法问题
我昨天做了两篇专八的改错,有一道题有疑问.该题的上下文:Even with a training "form" of degree,only a few of the procedures or methods practiced in your studies are likely to be continuously relevant in your work.Partly that reflects the greater specialization.
书后面的解析里说要把that改为this,理由是英语中常用this指代上文刚刚陈述过的内容.有没有谁能帮我解释下this的这种用法,举出几个好理解的例子.

this和that都可代表前面提到过的事情,若出现两个名词,指代前面的用that指代较后面的用this;但若指下文将要叙述事情,则只能用this,不能用that.此外,还可用于代替上文中出现过个单数或不可数名词,且后面带有of短语修饰.
  Health is above wealth; this cannot give so much happiness as that.
  健康胜于财富;财富不会像健康那样带来那么多幸福(句中this=wealth;that=health)
  They cant afford it.That/this is their problem.
  What I want you to remember is this :English is of great use.(此句中this不能用that替换)
  The popula tion of Shanghai is larger than that of Suzhou.
而你给出的考题中,Partly that reflects the greater specialization~~~~这个句子仍然是与上文a few of the procedures or methods相关所要陈述的内容.这就运用了:若指下文将要叙述事情,则只能用this,不能用that.
