[michelle610]

that =the median income

[陳靜靜]

感謝michelle610的回覆，可還是不了that後的動詞在那兒?

[維尼]

感謝michelle610的回覆，可還是不了that後的動詞在那兒?

想想: I am taller than you.

[陳靜靜]

謝謝維尼的建議，that在此是連接詞嗎?如果是，我的問題才是問題。
無法參透維尼的比喻請指教。

[陳靜靜]

墾請先進們再指教，感激不盡。

[林小馬]

這邊that後面不用動詞喔
維尼用I am taller than you.是在說比較級than後面可以只加名詞就好

答案帶入
In 1982 the median income for married-couple families with a wage-earning wife was $9,000 more than that for families in which only the husband was employed.
簡單壓縮講就是
A種家庭的median income大於B種家庭的median income
後面的那個that算是指示代名詞 (我搞不太清楚專業用詞 如果講錯了跟我說)
就如Michelle說的是代替median income

舉個例
The economy of country A is better than that of country B.
that指代economy

你之前會問為什麼沒有動詞
可能是把that想成"後面接子句的that"
