13、宾语从句 1)定义 :当用一个句子充当宾语时,我们把这个句子叫做宾语从句。
2)宾语从句的引导词
(1)如果宾语从句是由陈述句转变而来,其引导词用that。that本身无意义,可省略。 eg:He tells us (that)they are good at playing basketball.他告诉我们他们是好医生。
(2)如果宾语从句是由一般疑问句转变而来,其引导词要用if/whether,意为“是否”。
eg:Mr.Chen asks if/whether we will have a test tomorrow.陈老师问我们是否都到了。
3)宾语从句的语序
宾语从句无论是由一般疑问句转变而来,还是由特殊疑问句转变而来,在转变为宾语从句后,都要用陈述句语序。 Do you know if Jim’s father works here 你知道吉姆的父亲是在这里工作吗?
【注意】当与or not连用时,只能用whether。 I wonder whether June is a good time to visit Hong Kong or not.

eg:I hear that he will be back in a day.我听说一天后他将回来。

Every year on my birthday since I was 11, a white gardenia (栀子花) was sent to my house. No card ever came with it. Calls to the flower shop were not helpful at all. After some time I stopped trying to find out the sender’s name and was just pleased with the beautiful flower, in soft pink paper. I couldn’t stop imagining who the giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming (幻想 )about the sender. My mother encouraged these daydreams. She’d ask me if I had been especially kind to someone. Perhaps it was one of my classmates. Perhaps it was the old man who I once helped. As a girl, I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy that I had met.
A month before my high school graduation (毕业), my father died. I was so sad that I became completely uninterested in my coming graduation dance, and I didn’t care whether I had a new dress or not. My mother, in her own sadness, would not let me miss (过) any of those things. She wanted her children to feel loved. In fact, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia: lovely, strong and perfect.
My mother died ten years after I was married. That was the year the gardenia stopped coming.

On Thanksgiving Day, about 88 percent American eat turkey. But one lucky turkey not only will not be eaten but also will become famous. Every year, turkey farmers present turkeys to the US president. But instead of eating this turkey, the president gives it a “Pardon”. The turkey is flown to Florida for a thanksgiving parade (游行).Then it lives on the farm for the rest of its life.
Turkeys come from America and have been part of American culture for centuries. Benjamin Franklin even wanted the turkey to be America's national bird.

They can also run at 40 kilometers per hour. Turkeys don't have ears. They hear by using the growth of beaks (尖喙). But their hearing is about five times better than human hearing.
