Let’s review.
宾语从句三要素
1. 陈述句:that
2. 一般疑问句:whether/if
3. 特殊疑问句:wh-, how
陈述句语序
主现从不限
主过从必过
真理永不变
由wh-引导的宾语从句。连接词常见的有who, what, when, where, why, how 等。 从句用陈述语序。

Grammar
当从句是特殊疑问句时,疑问词就是宾语从句的引导词。连接代词who,whom,whose,which,what和连接副词where,how,why,when可引导宾语从句,并在从句中作一定成分。

用适当的连接词填空。
whether
whether
that
if / whether
goes
is
if / whether
在含有宾语从句的复合句中,宾语从句要用陈述语序。因此当特殊疑问句作宾语
从句时,一定要注意语序。
“Where did he go last month ” She asked. = She asked where he went last month.
当疑问代词what/who在特殊疑问句中作主语时,该特殊疑问句本身即是陈述语序,所以转变成宾语从句后无需再调整语序。
“What’s wrong with the TV ” Tom asks. = Tom asks what’s wrong with the TV.
语序的变化
语序
宾语从句必须是陈述句语序。如:
Do you know when Mr. Black will arrive in Beijing
(关联词) (主语) (谓语)
Do you know who is a math teacher
(关联词作主语) (系动词+表语)
I don’t know who those men are.
(关联词) (主语) (系动词)
在含有疑问词引导的宾语从句的主从复合句中,如果从句的主语与主
句的主语或宾语一致,则宾语从句可以转化为“疑问词 + 动词不定式”
结构。
I want to know how I get there.
→ I want to know how to get there.
与“疑问词+动词不定式”结构的转化
Grammar
时态
宾语从句的时态与主句的时态相关:
如果主句是现在的某种时态,则宾语从句的时态可根据实际情况而定;
如果主句是过去的某种时态,则宾语从句一般要用相应的过去时态(宾语从句表示客观真理除外)。如:
Peter wants to know what Lucy was doing at 8:00 yesterday morning.
My aunt asked me when I would buy a new car.
