请分析下面英语句子结构及时态：The dream he had had for so many years ended there.
整个句子是一般过去时吗?主语是The dream he had had for so many years ,ended是整句的谓语动词?he had had for so many years是一个定语从句,用来修饰The dream的,定语从句是过去完成时,第一个had表时态,第二个had是have（有）的过去分词?还有 he had had for so many years 作为定语从句,中间好像省略了连接词,省略的是什么?

答案

你的理解很对!
The dream【( that /which)he had had for so many years】 ended there.
he had had for so many years 为定语从句,修饰the dream,中间省略了引导词that/which,由于先行词dream为“物”,故用which/that指代,但夲句引导词作为had had 的宾语,所以能省略.
