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、表语以及同位语。因此,根据它在句中不同的语法功能,名词性从句分为主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句以及同位语从句。
引导名词性从句的连接词可以分为三类:① 连接词:that, whether,if (不充当从句的任何成分);② 连接代词:what, whatever, who, whoever, whom, whose, which(在句中担任主语,宾语或定语);③ 连接副词:when, where, how, why(在句中担任状语,表示时间、地点、方式或原因)。Ⅰ.名词性从句的分类:
1.主语从句
主语从句是在复合句中担任主语的句子;通常位于句末,句首则采用it作形式主语。注意,what引导的主语从句一般不用it作形式主语。1)常以it作形式主语的句型有:
①It is+形容词+that...
It is certain that she will do well in her exam.
毫无疑问她考试成绩会很好。
②It is+名词词组(no wonder, an honour, a good thing, a pity, no surprise, common knowledge, a surprise, a fact, etc.)+that...
It's a pity that we can't go.
很遗憾我们不能去。③It is+过去分词(said, reported, thought, expected, decided, announced, arranged, etc.)+that...
It has been suggested that much should be done to prevent the river from being polluted.
有人建议应做更多的工作阻止河流遭受污染。
④It appears/seems that...|It happens that...|It occurred to me that...|It turned out that...
It turned out that nobody remembered the address.
结果发现没人记得这地址。
⑤It doesn't matter that...|It makes no difference that...
It doesn't matter whether she will come or not.
她是否来这无关紧要。2)当that引导的主语从句出现在疑问句中时,要以it作形式主语,而把主语从句后置。
Does it matter much that they will not come tomorrow?
他们明天不来很要紧吗?
3)当主语从句出现在感叹句中时,要以it作形式主语,而把主语从句后置。
How strange it is that the children are so quiet!
孩子们这么安静真奇怪!2.宾语从句
主从复合句中起宾语作用的从句称为宾语从句。学习宾语从句应该注意以下几点。
1)引导宾语从句的连词that一般可以省略,但是在及物动词之后跟有两个或两个以上的宾语从句时,只有第一个that可以省略。
①Glancing at her scornfully, he told her(that) the dress was sold.
他轻蔑地看了她一眼,告诉她说那件衣服卖了。
②The teacher said (that) the text was very important and that we should learn it by heart.
老师说课文非常重要,我们应该背下来。2)表示“心理活动”的形容词:afraid, anxious, aware, ashamed, annoyed, certain, confident, content, convinced, determined, disappointed, glad, happy, proud, pleased, sure, surprised, satisfied, thankful, worried等可以后接宾语从句。
①He was afraid that he would lose.
他担心会输。
②I am sure that I put the money in the box.
我肯定把钱放在盒子里了。3)若主句谓语动词为think, consider, suppose, believe, expect, fancy, guess, imagine等,其后的宾语从句若含有否定意义,一般要把否定词转移到主句谓语上,从句谓语用肯定式,这种现象称为“否定转移”现象(此时主语往往为第一人称,偶尔为第三人称;否定词never, seldom, hardly, little无此用法)。
①I don't think his decision is wise in reality.
实际上,我觉得他的决定并不明智。
②I don't believe that he is a dishonest man.
我认为他是个诚实的人。4)在think, believe, imagine, suppose, guess, hope等动词以及I'm afraid之后,可以采用so代替一个肯定的宾语从句,也可以采用not代替否定的宾语从句。例如:
①—Do you believe the news stories?
—I believe so.
“你相信这个新闻故事吗?”“我相信。”
②—Has Anne got into university?
—I am afraid not.
“安妮上大学了吗?”“恐怕是没有。”3.表语从句
在句中作表语的从句称为表语从句;学习表语从句应该注意以下几点。
1)通常只用that引导表语从句的情况。
①句子的主语为the reason时,表语从句采用that引导,表示原因,此时不用because.
The reason why she was ill was that she had eaten bad meat.
她生病的原因是她吃了变质的肉。②句子的主语为the result时,表语从句采用that引导.
The result is that many of them become fat.
结果是他们中许多人发胖了。
③由why引导的从句作主语时。
Why we decided to put off the match is that the weather was too terrible.
我们决定推迟比赛的原因是天气太糟糕了。2)as if/though引导的表语从句通常置于系动词look, seem, sound, be等后面;表语从句既可以采用虚拟语气,也可采用直陈语气。
①It sounded as if somebody was knocking at/on the door.
听起来好像有人在敲门。
②She treats him as if he were a stranger.
她待他如陌生人。Ⅱ.名词性从句考点归纳:
1.名词性从句必须采用陈述语序。
①I want to know what he has told you.
我想知道他告诉了你什么。
②She always thinks of how she can work well.
她总是在想怎样能把工作做好。2.it担任形式主语或宾语:
在名词性从句中,为了使句子保持平衡,常用先行词it来代替主语从句或宾语从句,而把主语从句或宾语从句放到后面,尤其是连词that引导的主语从句常用于此句式中。
①It 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。
②I find it strange that she doesn't want to travel.
她竟不想旅游, 我觉得很奇怪。3.在名词性从句中 that与what的差异:
what在从句中要充当某个成分(主语、宾语或表语),在任何情况下都不能省略,表示“(=the thing or things that...; whatever)……的事物; 无论什么;凡是……的事物”。that本身没有词汇意义,在从句中不充当任何成分,在口语和非正式文件中,宾语从句中的that常常省略。①What you have done might do harm to others.
你所做的事或许对别人有害处。
②I spent what little time I had with my family.
我仅有的一点儿时间都和家人在一起度过了。
③No one knows what will happen next.
谁也不知道下一步有什么事。
④I think(that) you will like the stamps.
我认为你会喜欢这些邮票的。4.whether和if的差异:
1)引导主语从句、表语从句或同位语从句,只能采用whether.
Whether there is life on the moon is an interesting question.
月球上有没有生命是个有趣的问题。
2)介词宾语只用whether引导。
He was worrying about whether he had hurt her feeling.
他焦虑地想知道是否伤害了她的感情。3)当whether引导的宾语从句位于句首表示强调时,不能被if替换。
Whether he will come or not, I am not sure.
我无法确认他是否会来。
4)whether经常与or not 直接连用,构成whether or not.
I don't know whether or not he'll come.
我不知道他是来还是不来。5)后接动词不定式时只能用whether.
Can you tell me whether to go or to stay?
你能否告诉我是去还是留?
6)动词discuss后面只能接whether引导的宾语从句。
We discussed whether we should close the shop.
我们讨论我们是否关闭这家商店。5.宾语从句和主句的时态呼应:
1)当主句谓语动词为现在时态或将来时态时,宾语从句可以选择适当的时态。
Will you tell me how I can keep fit?
能告诉我如何保持健康吗?
2)当主句谓语动词为过去时态时,为保持时态一致,宾语从句应采用相应的过去时态。
Jack told me that he had been there twice.
杰克告诉我他去过那儿两次了。3)当主句谓语为过去时态时,宾语从句表示客观真理、客观存在的事物、格言时, 仍然采用一般现在时。
Long ago, people knew that there are four seasons in a year.
很久以前,人们就知道一年有四个季节。6.连接代词whoever, whatever, whichever引导名词性从句的含义:
1)whoever的用法:
①(=the person or people who...)…的那个人
Whoever said that?
到底谁讲的这话?
②(=any person who...)…的任何一个人
Tell whoever you like; it makes no difference to me.
你愿意告诉谁就告诉谁——对我来说都无所谓。2)whatever的用法:
①(=any or every)任何;每一
Take whatever action is needed.
采取任何必要的措施。
②(=anything or everything)任何事物;一切事物
You must do whatever is best for you.
什么对你最有利你就得做什么。
③(表示做什么或发生什么都没关系,因为结果都一样)无论什么,不管什么
You have our support, whatever you decide.
不管你做何决定,都会得到我们的支持。3)whichever的用法:
①(表示什么特征或品质在作决定时重要)…的那个;…的那些
Take whichever hat suits you best.
挑个最适合你戴的帽子。
②无论哪个;无论哪些
Whichever of you comes in will receive a prize.
你们当中不论哪个进来将会得到奖励。7.虚拟语气结构在名词性从句中的应用:
1)主语从句
It is necessary that he(should)come to see us.
他有必要来看望我们。
2)宾语从句
The teacher suggested that we(should)have a rest.
老师建议我们休息一会儿。
3)表语从句
My suggestion is that we(should)read English newspapers to improve our English.
我的建议是我们应该阅读英文报纸来提高我们的英语水平。8.it作形式主语和it引导强调句的比较
it作形式主语代替主语从句,主要是为了平衡句子结构,主语从句的连接词没有变化。而it引导的强调句则是对句子某一部分进行强调,无论强调的是什么成分,都用连词that.被强调部分指人时也可用who/whom.
①It's a pity he missed the opportunity to travel abroad.
他错过了去国外旅游的机会,真是可惜。
②Who was it that won the World Cup in 2006?
谁赢得了2006年的世界杯? 语法专练
