1、1语法专项(十六)名词性从句一名词性从句的概念:指具有名词性质的从句,包括主语从句,宾语从句,表语从句和同位语从句。二名词性从句的引导词:连接词 that, if, whether, as if, as though, because连接代词 who, whoever, whom, whomever, what, whatever, which, whichever, whose连接副词 when, where, why, how, how 构成的短语三引导词的作用:连接词只有连接的功能,不在从句中充当句子成分。连接代词和连接副词除了起到连接作用外。还要在从句中担任主语,宾语,表语,定语,或状
2、语等成分。注:名词性从句的语序:陈述语序四名词性从句的用法:(一)主语从句:1主语从句的引导词:that, whether, 连接代词,连接副词。-That he is still alive is a wonder. -When we will hold the meeting is a problem.-Whatever he did was right.2主语从句需注意的问题:有时主语从句放在句首显得很笨重,常用 it 作形式主语而把主语从句移到句末。常用 it 作形式主语的句型有:a. It+be+形容词 +that/wh-从句(常见形容词有:certain/clear/obvious
3、/important/likely/possible/probable/true/necessary/amazing/surprising)-It is certain that she will do well in the exam.-It is very difficult what you are doing.注:形容词为 important,necessary,essential ,significant ,strange ,natural 等词时,从句要虚拟。b. It+be+名词+that/wh-从句(常见名词有:no wonder, no surprise, a pity, a
4、 surprise, a question, a shame, an honor, a good thing, a fact )-Its a pity that we cant go.-It remains a question whether it is true.注:名词为 pity,shame 时,强调惊讶的语气用虚拟,不强调就不用。c. It+be+过去分词+that/wh-从句(常见过去分词有:said/believed/reported/suggested/accepted/announced/decided/expected/known/proved)-It is said th
5、at Mr. Green has arrived in Beijing.-It has been suggested that much should be done to prevent the river from being polluted.注:动词的过去分词是表示“建议,要求,命令”的意思时,从句用虚拟。d. It+不及物动词+that/wh-从句(常见不及物动词有:appear/seem/happen/matter/occur to sb.)-It doesnt matter whether she will come or not.-It happened that I was
6、out that day.如果主句是疑问句,则必须用 it 作形式主语,主语从句置后:-Is it true that he is the girls father?what 引导的主语从句一般不用 it 作形式主语,直接将主语从句置于句首:2-What we need is money.(二)宾语从句:1宾语从句的引导词:that, whether, if, 连接代词,连接副词。-I dont know if you can help me.-Ill tell you why I asked you to come.2宾语从句需注意的问题:介词后接宾语从句:-Success depends
7、on whether we make enough effort.-She laughed at what we said.a. that 通常不作介词宾语,但可在介词 in, except, besides, but 后引导宾语从句:(现多被看做是固定短语:in that:因为; except/besides that:除了; but that:要不是)-He would have helped us but that he was short of money at that time.-I know nothing about him except that he is a gradua
8、te of Beijing University.b. whether 和 if 引导宾语从句时一般可以互换,但介词后只能用 whether,不用 if:-It is a question of whether we should go.形容词后接宾语从句:(某些表示感情色彩的形容词作表语时后面可跟一个意义上相当于宾语的名词从句) (常见形容词有:afraid, aware, certain, sure, glad, pleased, surprised, doubtful, confident 等)-Im not sure what I ought to do.-Im surprised t
9、hat I didnt see all that before.如果宾语从句后跟有补语,必须用 it 作形式宾语,将从句放到补语之后:-I think it important that young people master two languages.-He has made it clear that he will not give in.宾语从句中 that 的省略:一般情况下,引导宾语从句的 that 可省略,但如果有两个 that 引导宾语从句,第二个 that 通常不能省略,以免引起歧义:-I know (that) you have studied English, and
10、that you have written an English poem.宾语从句的否定转移:当主句谓语动词为 think, believe, suppose, expect, guess 等表示“认为,猜想,估计”的意思时,其后的宾语从句如果带否定意义,通常将否定词 not 前置于主句谓语上:-I dont think you are right.-I dont believe they have finished their work yet.注:如果主语为第一人称,反义疑问句看从句谓语,如果主语为二三人称,反义疑问句看主句谓语:-I dont think you are right,
11、_?-She doesnt think you are right, _?宾语从句的时态变化规律:当主句是一般现在时,从句可根据需要用任何时态。当主句是一般过去时,从句只能使用过去范围内的任何时态。 (客观真理除外)-She said that she would come.-The teacher told us that the sun rises in the east.动词作“建议,要求,命令”讲时,从句要用虚拟语气,从句中的 should 可省略。(三)表语从句:1表语从句的引导词:that, whether, as if, as though, because, 连接代词,连接副词
12、。-The question is whether he is honest.-It looked as if it was going to rain.2表语从句需注意的问题:as if, as though 引导表语从句时根据实际情况既可用一般语气也可用虚拟语气。3-It looks as if we will be late.-The patient looked as if he had been ill for a long time.固定句型:The reason why.is/was that(不能用 because)-The reason why he didnt attend
13、 the meeting was that he was seriously ill.because 可引导表语从句,但与之同义的 since, as, for 等不能引导表语从句:-It is because I love you too much.主语是“建议,要求,命令”时,从句要用虚拟语气。(四)同位语从句:1同位语从句的引导词:that, whether, 连接代词,连接副词。-We heard the news that our team had won.-I have no idea when he will come back.2同位语从句需注意的问题:同位语从句的先行词词义都
14、比较抽象,往往要求用从句来具体说明这一名词的实际内容或对该名词作进一步解释。 (常见名词有:fact, news, idea, thought, question, report, possibility, belief, doubt, evidence, hope等)-The fact that the seawater cannot be used for drinking is known to all.-An idea occurred to him that he might go there by air.注:先行词是“建议,要求,命令”的词时,从句要用虚拟语气。同位语从句与定语从
15、句的区别:同位语从句:that 不充当句子成分;从句与先行词之间是同位关系;从句说明先行词的具体内容;先行词有范围限制定语从句:that 充当句子成分;从句与先行词是修饰与被修饰关系;从句说明先行词的性质特征;先行词无范围限制-The news that he won the first prize is true. (同位语从句)-The news that you told me yesterday is true. (定语从句)五缩合连词:what,whatever,whoever ,whomever ,whicheverwhat 引导名词性从句时可译为“什么” ,也可作缩合连词(=先行
16、词+关系词):-He is no longer what he was. (what 表示“的人或样子”)-Our income is now double what it was ten years ago. (what 表示“的数目或数量”)-He was born in what is now known as Shanghai. (what 表示“的地方”)-Whoever is late will be punished.六:含有感叹句的名词性从句:-You cant imagine what difficulty I had finding this shop.-You never
17、 thought what a wonderful time we had at the party.七含有插入语的名词性从句:-Many people thought little of me, but I did what I thought was right.八几组引导词的用法区别:1what 与 that:what: 在句中可作主语,宾语,表语,意为“什么”that: 仅起连接作用,本身没有实际意义,在从句中不充当任何句子成分(引导宾语从句常可省略)-He doesnt know what she likes.-I believe (that) he will come to see
18、 us.2. whether 与 if: 两者均可引导宾语从句,表示“是否”,常可互换:-He didnt tell me if/whether he would come.4a. 引导宾语从句但置于句首或介词后时只能用 whether:-Whether he has left, I cant say.-I worry about whether I hurt her feelings.b. 直接与 or not 连用时只能用 whether(若不直接与 or not 连用,也可用 if)-I will write to you whether or not I can come. (让步状语
19、从句)-I dont know whether/if he will win or not. c. 与不定式连用时只能用 whether:-Im not sure whether to stay or leave.引导主语从句,表语从句和同位语从句时只能用 whether:-Whether he will come is still a question.-The question is whether he will come.-The question whether we need it has not been considered.总结:若 whether 和 if 同时出现,意为
20、“是否”时,首选 whether。3that 与 whether(if):that 表示 肯定,明确 的概念,而 whether(if) 则表示不肯定,不明确的概念。-I doubt _ he will come.-I dont doubt _ he will succeed.-Do you doubt _ he will win?4who 与 whoever:who 引导名词性从句强调一件事情 ,而 whoever 引导名词性从句强调人,相当于“anyone who”-I will give the tickets to _ wants it.-_ spoke at the meeting
