语法知识
宾语从句
(一) 什么是宾语
宾语是动作的对象或承受者,常位于及物动词或介词后面。
宾语可由名词、代词、数词、名词化的形容词、不定式、动名词、宾语从句等来担任。
(二) 宾语从句的定义
宾语从句是主从复合句的一种。
主从复合句是由一个主句和一个或一个以上的从句构成的。
主句是复合句的主体,从句仅仅是主句的一个成分,它从属于主句,不能独立。
从句在全句中充当什么成分,就叫什么从句。
宾语从句当中的从句在句中作及物动词(vt.)的宾语,或介词的宾语,或形容词的宾语。
根据引导宾语从句的不同连词,宾语从句分为三类:动词宾语从句,介词宾语从句和形容词宾语从句。
I wonder when he will come. 动宾从句
He was angry at what she said. 介宾从句
I am not sure whether it’s right or not. 形容词+宾从句
(三)宾语从句三要素
宾语从句三要素分别是:语序、时态和连接词
1. 宾语从句语序
宾语从句均用陈述语序(即正常的主谓语序):连接词+主语+谓语+其它成分。
强调一下,它的主语和谓语是陈述句的语序,不是疑问句的倒装语序。
I wonder when he will come.
*特殊情况:当连接词在从句中担当主语时,保持原有语序不变。
I wonder what is the matter with him. 连接词what/who在从句中担当主语成分,
what is wrong with it. 从句保持原有的特殊疑问句语序不变
who is your teacher. 从句中的主语
2. 宾语从句的时态
含宾语从句的复合句,主、从句谓语动词的时态呼应应包括以下三点内容:
①需要性原则
如果主句的谓语动词是一般现在时,从句的谓语动词可根据需要,选用相应的任何时态。
I don't know when he will come back. 我不知道他将何时回来。
He tells me that his sister came back yesterday. 他告诉我他姐姐昨天回来了。
②呼应性原则
如果主句的谓语动词是一般过去时,宾语从句的谓语动词只可根据需要,选用过去的某种时态(一般过去时、过去进行时、过去将来时或过去完成时)。
⑴ 主句与从句的动作同时发生,从句用过去进行时或一般过去时
She said that she was working on the Internet.
⑵ 从句的动作发生在主句的动作之前,从句用过去完成时
He didn’t know what they had come here for.
⑶ 从句的动作发生在主句的动作之后,从句用过去将来时
Jim told me he would spend his holidays in the south.
③特殊性原则
如果宾语从句所表示的是客观事实、普遍真理、自然现象或习惯性动作等,不管主句用什么时态,从句时态都用一般现在时。
Scientists have proved that the earth turns around the sun. 科学家已经证明了地球围绕太阳运转。
Our teacher said that January is the first month of the year. 我们的老师说一月是一年的第一个月。
3. 宾语从句连接词
连词 连接代词pron. 连接副词adv.
宾语从句 that
whether/if who/whom/whose/whoever/whomever/
whosever/what/which/whatever/whichever when/where/why/how/
how much/how long/
how often…
(四)that引导的宾语从句
当宾语从句是陈述句时,用连接代词that引导,that在口语、非正式文体中常被省略。
She said (that) she went to the park last week. 她说她上周去了公园。
【拓展】that不能省略的情况
1. 当宾语从句的主语是that时:
He says that that is a map o the city. 他说那是一副城市地图。
2. 当宾语从句前有插入语时:
He says, in his letter, that he misses us very much.
3. 当宾语从句是双宾语中的直接宾语时:
I can’t tell him that his father died.
(五) if或whether引导的宾语从句
当宾语从句是由一般疑问句变来时,要用连接词if或whether来引导。if和whether在句中的意思是“是否”,一般情况下二者可以互换使用。
I want to know if/whether he is waiting for me.我想知道他是否在等我。
【拓展】只能用whether的情况
①在不定式前: Whether to go there or not hasn't been decided.
②在介词后: It depends on(依靠)whether it is going to rain.
③与or not连用:They are talking about whether to go there or not.

Dear Michael,
I'm glad to tell you something about the Spring Festival. Like Christmas, it happens every year, but not the same day. It’s a traditional festival in China. It usually comes in February, but sometimes it comes in January.
Before the Spring Festival, people are busy cleaning their houses. They think it means sweeping away all the bad luck. On the eve of the Spring Festival, all the families stay up to welcome the new year after a big dinner. We eat lots of delicious food, such as jiaozi—a kind of dumpling. On the first day of the new year, people put on their new clothes and visit their relatives. Kids usually get lucky money from old people. How happy we are in the Spring Festival!
Yours,
Li Xin
