答案

很高兴为您解答!
【译文】
If someone looks very proud or satisfied with himself,we say he looks like the cat that ate the canary.
如果某人看起来很自豪或者自满,我们说他就像偷吃了腥/金丝雀的猫 （意为：得意极了）.
【分析】
If 引导的条件状语从句,主语为“主+谓+省略了引导词that的宾语从句”.
Look like the cat that ate the canary这个俗语是用来形容一个人显得非常满足,就像一只猫终于实现了它长期来的愿望,把鸟笼打开,把里面那只可怜的金丝雀吃了一样地感到满足.
从句中的that ate the canary 是一个that引导的定语从句,修饰the cat.that是引导词,无意义,在从句中作主语.
