1. That he failed in the exam made his parents very disappointed.
a. Noun clause used as Subject of sentence:
"that he failed in the exam" is a noun clause used as subject of the sentence.
It answers the question as to "what made his parents very disappointed?"
It is the "fact" [that he failed in the exam] made his parents very disappointed.
b. Delayed subject:
The above noun clause can be placed at the end of the sentence. In this case, a dummy "it" is to be placed at beginning of the sentence referring to the actual subject.
"It" made his parents very disappointed [that he failed in the exam].
This sentence also answers the question "what...?" and is equivalent to the first sentence above.
c. Adverbial clause:
The 3rd and 4th sentences are not correct in meaning as they do not answer the question of "what ...?"; so they are not equivalent to the first sentence!
Instead of noun clause, a subordinate clause (adverbial) clause should be used to answer the question of "why...?"; such as
He made his parents very disappointed because he failed in the exam.
2. A person who is ambitious usually does well at work.
此句who is可以省略,
變成 A person ambitious usually does well at work. (X)
變成 An ambitious person usually does well at work. (O)
