【原句回放】

【点拨】
what在这里是代词，有双重作用，既引导宾语从句又在宾语从句中作call的宾语，与body language一起构成复合宾语。

what用作连接代词，此时，what表示“所……的(事)或所……的(人)”，相当于“the thing(s)that...; all that...; everything that...; the person that...”等，可引导主语从句、表语从句和宾语从句(不可引导同位语从句)；它本身在从句中充当主语、宾语或表语。

Leave it with me and I'll see what I can do.
把它留给我，我看看该怎么办。

（2）不定式作定语的三种情况

...and one last thing to remember... ……还有最后一件要记住的事……
【点拨】
to remember 是动词不定式作定语，修饰one last thing。

不定式作定语有三种情况：
1.不定式与被修饰的词之间具有逻辑上的动宾关系。

I have several letters to answer today.今天有几封信要回。

（to answer和letter是动宾关系）
Here is a patient for you to look after.这儿有个病人需要你照顾。

2. 不定式与被修饰的词之间具有逻辑上的主谓关系。

You must find a person to help you in the field.
你必须找个人帮你干地里的活。

（a person和to help you是逻辑上的主谓关系）
3. 不定式与被修饰的词之间不具有逻辑上的主谓关系或动宾关系。

（3）省略回答
【原句回放】
Why do we clap? To show we like something, of course
我们为什么要鼓掌？当然是为了表明我们喜欢某事物。

【点拨】
本句使用了一个省略回答，补充完整为：We clap to show we like something, of course.这常为一个命题点，有时不仅仅局限在不定式上，有可能还会有其他的动词形式，但是解题方法基本相同，即用还原法把它补充完整。

昨天你为什么没有经过我的允许就去那儿？
