在句子中起名词作用的句子叫名词性从句 (Noun
Clauses)。 名词性从句的功能相当于名词词组, 它在复合句中能担任主语、宾语、表语、同位语、介词宾语等,因此根据它在句中不同的语法功能,名词性从句又可分别称为主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句和同位语从句。
引导名词性从句的连接词:
1. 连词:that(无任何词意)
whether, if(均表示“是否”表明从句内容的不确定性)as if, as
though(均表示“好像”,“似乎”)以上在从句中均不充当任何成分。
2. 连接代词:what,
whatever, who,
whoever, whom,
whose,
whichever, whomever
3. 连接副词:when,
where, how, why, how many, how much, how often
不可省略的连词:
1. 介词后的连词
2. 引导主语从句和同位语从句的连词不可省略。
That she was
chosen made us very
happy.
We
heard the news that our team had won.
比较:whether与if 均为"是否"的意思。 但在下列情况下,只可用whether:
1. whether引导主语从句并在句首
2. 引导表语从句
3. whether从句作介词宾语
4. 从句后有"or not"
Whether he will come is not
clear.
一、主语从句
作句子主语的从句叫主语从句。主语从句通常由从属连词that,whether,if和连接代词what,who,
which,whatever,whoever以及连接副词how,when,where,why等词引导。that在句中无词义,只起连接作用;连接代词和连接副词在句中既保留自己的疑问含义、又起连接作用,在从句中充当从句的成分。例如:
What he
wants to tell us is not clear. 他要跟我们说什么,还不清楚。
Who will win the
match is
still unknown. 谁能赢得这场比赛还不得而知。
It is
known to us how he
became a
writer. 我们都知道他是如何成为一名作家的。
Where the
English evening will be held has not yet been
announced. 英语晚会将在哪里举行,还没有宣布。
二、宾语从句
名词句用作宾语的从句叫宾语从句。引导宾语从句的关联词与引导主语从句表语从句的关联词大致一样,在句中可以作谓语动词或介词及非谓语动词的宾语。
1. 由连接词that引导的宾语从句
由连接词that引导宾语从句时,that在句中不担任任何成分,在口语或非正式的文体中常被省去,但如从句是并列句时,第二个分句前的that不可省。例如:
He has told me that he will go to
Shanghai tomorrow. 他已经告诉我他明天要去上海。
We must
never think (that) we are good in
everything while others are good in
nothing. 我们决不能认为自己什么都好,别人什么都不好。
注意:在
demand,
order,
suggest,
decide,
insist,
desire,
request,
command等表示要求、命令、建议、决定等意义的动词后,宾语从句常用“(
should)+ 动词原形”。例如:
I insist that she (should) do her work
alone. 我坚持要她自己工作。
The
commander ordered that
troops (should) set off at once. 司令员命令部队马上出发。
2. 用who,whom, which, whose, what, when, where, why, how, whoever, whatever, whichever等关联词引导的宾语从句相当于特殊疑问句,应注意句子语序要用陈述语序。例如:
I want to know what he has told you. 我想知道他告诉了你什么。
She
always thinks of how she can work well. 她总是在想怎样能把工作做好。
She will give whoever
needs help a warm
support. 凡需要帮助的人,她都会给予热情的支持。
三、表语从句
在句中作表语的从句叫表语从句。引导表语从句的关联词与引导主语从句的关联词大致一样,表语从句位于连系动词后,有时用as if引导。其基本结构为:主语 + 系动词 + that从句。例如:
The fact is that we have lost the game. 事实是我们已经输了这场比赛。
That’s just what I want. 这正是我想要的。
This is where our
problem lies. 这就是我们的问题所在。
That is why he didn’t come to the
meeting. 那就是他为什么不到会的原因。
It
looks as if it is
going to rain. 看上去天要下雨了。
需要注意的,当主语是
reason时,表语从句要用that引导而不是
because。例如:
The reason why he was late was that he
missed the
train by one
minute this
morning .
【注意】whether 可引导表语从句,但与之同义的if却通常不用于引导表语从句。
四、同位语从句
同位语从句说明其前面的名词的具体内容。同位语从句通常由that引导,可用于同位语从句的名词有
advice,demand,
doubt,fact,hope,idea,
information,
message,news,order,problem,
promise,
question,request,
suggestion,
truth,wish,word等。例如:
The news that we won the game is
exciting. 我们赢得这场比赛的消息令人激动。
I have no idea when he will come back home. 我不知道他什么时候回来。
The
thought came to him that Mary had
probably fallen ill. 他想到可能玛丽生病了。
