宾语从句属于名词性从句,在句子中相当于一个名词词组,在全句中充当主句的宾语。宾语从句主要考察引导词,语序和时态。
宾语从句的引导词
宾语从句是陈述句,引导词用that,在口语中that可以省略。
He said that he could finish his work before supper.
宾语从句由一般疑问句转换而来,其引导词用if/whether, 从句中有or not或从句充当介
词的宾语时,只能用whether.
I don’t know if/whether he still lives here after so many years.
Sorry, I don’t know whether she will come or not.
宾语从句是特殊疑问句时,引导词用特殊疑问词。

Could you tell me where Tom has gone
I want to know when you can finish the work.
二.宾语从句的时态
宾语从句谓语动词的时态常受主句谓语动词时态的制约,因此在运用时要注意主从句的时态相呼应。
主句的时态 从句的时态 例句
现在的各种时态 可用所需的任何时态 I hear he’ll be back in a few days. I hear he came back a few days ago. Please tell me whom you went to the garden with this morning.
一般过去时 一般过去时 She said she was much better than before.
过去进行时 She said she was reading a storybook at seven yesterday.
过去将来时 He said (that) he was going to take care of the baby.
过去完成时 She said she had seen this film several times.
一般现在时 They said that the earth is round.
三.宾语从句的语序
宾语从句要用陈述句语序,即连接词+主语+谓语+其他,或者连接词 (充当主语) +谓语+其他
Tom advised me that I should take more water.
She wonders who sent the flowers.
注意:有些特殊疑问句本身就是陈述句语序。
What’s wrong with. . . What is the way to. . .
What happened to you What is the matter/ trouble. . .
Who studies the hardest in your class
在复合句中,修饰某一名词、代词或某一句子的从句叫定语从句。相当于一个形容词,中考重点考察由that, which, who引导的定语从句。
He said he couldn’t understand people who talked fast.
I like books that I can understand.
先行词:上面两句中的people和books是定语从句所修饰的词,叫先行词,定语从句放在先行词的后面。
关系词:引导定语从句的词有关系代词that,which, who (宾格whom,所有格whose) 和关系副词where, when, why。关系代/副词放在先行词和定语从句之间,起连接作用,同时又作定语从句的一个成分。
由关系代词引导的的定语从句
关系代词 指代 例句
that在从句中作主语或宾语 (作宾语时可省) 指物 (=which) The shop that sells flowers is at the end of the street. (作主语) The movie that we saw last night was fantastic. (作宾语)
指人 (=who/whom) Who is the man that is reading a newspaper over there The girl that I saw yesterday was Tom’s sister.
