单元语法讲练
语法精讲
that, if/whether引导的宾语从句
宾语从句属于名词性从句。在句子中起宾语作用的从句叫作宾语从句。在本单元中，我们重点讲述宾语从句的两类引导词，分别是that以及if/whether。
一、由that引导的宾语从句
当宾语从句为陈述句时，用that引导，that无词义，在从句中不充当成分，只在宾语从句中起连接作用，在口语或非正式文体中常省略。
I believe that April is the hottest month in Thailand.我认为四月是泰国最热的月份。
二、由if/whether引导的宾语从句
1.关联词
whether和if都意为“是否”，它们引导宾语从句时也不在从句中做成分，但不能省略。这类从句一般可理解为是由一般疑问句形式或选择疑问句形式的直接引语转化而来。
I wonder whether/if June is a good time to visit Hong Kong.我想知道六月是否是游览香港的好时间。
Mary asked me if/whether I needed any help.玛丽问我是否需要任何帮助。
2.从句的语序
if/whether引导的宾语从句要用陈述语序。
She asked me if/whether I knew whose pen it was.她问我是否知道这是谁的钢笔。
3.if和whether的用法及区别
一般情况下，二者没有区别，可以互换。if常用于口语中，whether比较正式。但在下列情况下，两者不能互换。
（1）引导介词的宾语从句时，只能用whether。
I’m thinking of whether we should go on a picnic.我在想我们是否该去野餐。
（2）与or not直接连用时，只能用whether，不可与if互换。
I can’t say whether or not he will come on time.我说不准他是否会准时来。
（3）与动词不定式连用时，只能用whether，不能用if。
He can’t decide whether to go or to stay.他不能决定是走是留。
（4）用if会引起歧义时，只能用whether。
Could you tell me whether you know the answer？你能告诉我，你是否知道答案吗？（如果用if，会出现歧义：如果你知道答案，请告诉我好吗？用whether可以避免歧义）
（5）宾语从句提前时，只能用whether。
Whether they will join in the Winter Camp I don’t care.我不在乎他们是否参加冬令营。
感叹句
感叹句是表示赞美、惊叹、喜悦等感情的句子。感叹句通常由what和how引导。what修饰名词，how修饰形容词或副词。
1.what引导的感叹句
结构 例句
What + a/an+形容词+可数名词单数形式+主语+谓语！ What a great day！多么美好的一天啊！
What+形容词十可数名词复数形式+主语+谓语！ What important jobs they have done！他们做了多么重要的工作啊！
What+形容词十不可数名词（十主语+谓语）！=How+形容词+主语+谓语！ What sweet water it is！多甜的水啊！
2.how引导的感叹句
结构 例句
How+形容词/副词（+主语+谓语）！ How delicious the food is！食物是多么好吃啊！
How+形容词+a/an+可数名词单数（+主语+谓语）！ How lovely a girl she is！她是一个多么可爱的女孩啊！
How+主语+谓语！ How time flies！时间过得真快啊！
注意 中心词若为有形容词修饰的可数名词单数，用what和how引导感叹句都可以，但是要注意形容词的位置；中心词为可数名词复数或不可数名词，只能用what引导感叹句。
How peaceful a place it is！
=What a peaceful place it is！多么宁静的地方啊！

单元语法讲练
语法精讲
that, if/whether引导的宾语从句
宾语从句属于名词性从句。在句子中起宾语作用的从句叫作宾语从句。在本单元中，我们重点讲述宾语从句的两类引导词，分别是that以及if/whether。
一、由that引导的宾语从句
当宾语从句为陈述句时，用that引导，that无词义，在从句中不充当成分，只在宾语从句中起连接作用，在口语或非正式文体中常省略。
I believe that April is the hottest month in Thailand.我认为四月是泰国最热的月份。
二、由if/whether引导的宾语从句
1.关联词
whether和if都意为“是否”，它们引导宾语从句时也不在从句中做成分，但不能省略。这类从句一般可理解为是由一般疑问句形式或选择疑问句形式的直接引语转化而来。
I wonder whether/if June is a good time to visit Hong Kong.我想知道六月是否是游览香港的好时间。
Mary asked me if/whether I needed any help.玛丽问我是否需要任何帮助。
2.从句的语序
if/whether引导的宾语从句要用陈述语序。
She asked me if/whether I knew whose pen it was.她问我是否知道这是谁的钢笔。
3.if和whether的用法及区别
一般情况下，二者没有区别，可以互换。if常用于口语中，whether比较正式。但在下列情况下，两者不能互换。
（1）引导介词的宾语从句时，只能用whether。
I’m thinking of whether we should go on a picnic.我在想我们是否该去野餐。
（2）与or not直接连用时，只能用whether，不可与if互换。
I can’t say whether or not he will come on time.我说不准他是否会准时来。
（3）与动词不定式连用时，只能用whether，不能用if。
He can’t decide whether to go or to stay.他不能决定是走是留。
（4）用if会引起歧义时，只能用whether。
Could you tell me whether you know the answer？你能告诉我，你是否知道答案吗？（如果用if，会出现歧义：如果你知道答案，请告诉我好吗？用whether可以避免歧义）
（5）宾语从句提前时，只能用whether。
Whether they will join in the Winter Camp I don’t care.我不在乎他们是否参加冬令营。
感叹句
感叹句是表示赞美、惊叹、喜悦等感情的句子。感叹句通常由what和how引导。what修饰名词，how修饰形容词或副词。
1.what引导的感叹句
结构 例句
What + a/an+形容词+可数名词单数形式+主语+谓语！ What a great day！多么美好的一天啊！
What+形容词十可数名词复数形式+主语+谓语！ What important jobs they have done！他们做了多么重要的工作啊！
What+形容词十不可数名词（十主语+谓语）！=How+形容词+主语+谓语！ What sweet water it is！多甜的水啊！
2.how引导的感叹句
结构 例句
How+形容词/副词（+主语+谓语）！ How delicious the food is！食物是多么好吃啊！
How+形容词+a/an+可数名词单数（+主语+谓语）！ How lovely a girl she is！她是一个多么可爱的女孩啊！
How+主语+谓语！ How time flies！时间过得真快啊！
注意 中心词若为有形容词修饰的可数名词单数，用what和how引导感叹句都可以，但是要注意形容词的位置；中心词为可数名词复数或不可数名词，只能用what引导感叹句。
How peaceful a place it is！
=What a peaceful place it is！多么宁静的地方啊！
