宾语从句
1.宾语从句的概说:宾语从句在复合句中作主句的宾语。
整个复合句结构如下:
I think (that) I have lost it. 我想我已经把它丢了。
主语 + 谓语 +(引导词)+ 主语 + 谓语
主句 宾语从句
由此可见宾语从句就是作及物动词,介词或某些形容词的宾语的句子。
2.由that引导的宾语从句。(即陈述句作宾语从句)
(1) 主句的谓语。
① 很多及物动词后都可接由that引导的宾语从句,如:think, hope, say, tell, know, see, hear, remember, mean等。
② 一些表示人的感情的形容词如sure, happy, glad, pleased, surprised, sorry, afraid等后面也可接由that引导的宾语从句,表示产生这种感情的原因。
e.g. I’m sure (that) he will come tomorrow. 我肯定他明天会来。
I’m happy (that) I see you here. 我很高兴看到你在这里。
注意:如果主句与从句的主语一致,可把从句改为不定式,如果不一致,则只可用that从句。如②句可改写为
I’m happy to see you here. 而①句则不可改。
(2) 从句的引导词,即that。
在连词that引导的宾语从句中,that本身无意义,在句子中不但任任何成分,在口语或非正式文体中常常省略。
e.g. I hope (that) you’ll have a good holiday.
希望你们假日愉快。
He says (that) the Chinese people are very friendly.
他说中国人民很友好。
(3) 从句的语序:宾语从句永远用陈述语序。
e.g. Does he know (that) she is a scientist?
他知道她是科学家吗?
Are you sure (that) you will win? 你肯定你会赢吗?
(4) 从句的时态。
①若主句为一般现在时态时,则宾语从句要根据具体情况选择所需要的时态。
e.g. He says (that) he is ill now. 他说他现在病了。
He says (that) he has been ill for ten days.
他说他已经生病十天了。
He says (that) he was ill last week. 他说他上周生病了。
He says (that) he will return soon. 他说他很快就回来。
②若主句为一般过去时,则宾语从句也要用某种过去时态。
e.g. He said (that) he was ill then. 他说他那时病了。
He said (that) he was doing his homework then.
他说他那时正在做作业。
③若宾语从句说的是客观真理,自然现象等,要用一般现在时。
e.g. The teacher said that the earth goes round the sun.
老师说地球绕着太阳转。
(5) 否定的转移。
若主句的主语是第一人称(I, we),且谓语动词是think, guess, believe, suppose等时,如果要否定,只能否定主句,而不能否定从句。
e.g. I don’t think he will come tonight. 我认为他今晚不会来。
(6) 含宾语从句的复合句的反意疑问句,一般情况下,根据主句主谓语来确定附加疑问句。
e.g. The teacher didn’t say that he would come here, did he?
但对于有否定转移的主从复合句来说,其附加疑问句的主谓语须根据从句来确定。
e.g. I don’t think he can swim, can he?
我认为他不会游泳,对吗?
I believe he is a student, isn’t he?
我相信他是个学生,不是吗?
3.由连接代词或连接副词引导的宾语从句。(即特殊疑问句作宾语从句)
(1) 主句的谓语:可由连接代词或连接副词引导的宾语从句的动词有see, tell, ask, answer, know, decide, find out, show, choose, remember, forget等。
e.g. Do you know who will give us a talk?
你知道谁将给我们做演讲吗?
We asked him why he was late. 我们问他为什么迟到。
I am going to see how Kate is.
我准备去看凯特怎么样了。
(2) 从句的引导词。
①由连接代词who, whom, whose, what和which引导,这些词在宾语从句中可作主语.宾语.表语和定语,因而不能省略。
e.g. Do you know who will give us a talk?
你知道谁会给我们做演讲吗?(who在宾语从句中作主语)
Can you tell me whom you are waiting for?
你能告诉我你在等谁吗?(whom在宾语从句中作宾语)
She asked whose jacket it was.
她问这是谁的夹克衫。(whose在宾语从句中作定语,修饰jacket)
I don’t know whose that is.
我不知道那是谁的?(whose在宾语从句中作表语)
②由连接副词when, where, why和how引导,这些词在宾语从句中作状语,不能省略。
e.g. Do you know when he will be back? 你知道他何时回来吗?
We asked him why he was late. 我们问他为何迟到。
I want to know where she lives. 我想知道她住在哪里。
(3) 从句的语序:特殊疑问句坐宾语从句,仍用陈述句的语序。
e.g. What day is it today? Do you know? → Do you know what day it is today?
When will the train leave? I want to know. → I want to know when the train will leave.
Where does she live? Can you tell me? → Can you tell me where she lives?
How did you do it? Please tell me. → Please tell me how you did it.
(4) 从句的时态:与that引导的宾语从句的时态一样。
(5) 注意:① 当what, which, whom, who等疑问代词作宾语从句里句末介词的宾语,又引导宾语从句时,句末的介词不可随意省掉。
e.g. I don’t know what they are looking for?
我不知道他们正在找什么。
Do you know which room she lives in?
你知道她住在哪个房间吗?
②当宾语从句的主语与主句的主语(或宾语)一致,且从句谓语时态为将来时或表示将来意义,如should时,从句可简化为疑问词(why 除外)+不定式。
e.g. I don’t know where I should go. = I don’t know where to go. 我不知道要去哪里。
I’ll show you how you should do it. = I’ll show you how to do it.
我将教你该怎么做它。
4.由if和whether引导的宾语从句
(1) if和whether用以引导宾语从句时意为“是否”,该宾语从句是由一般疑问句变来的。其语序.时态变化和前两种宾语从句一致。
e.g. Did he like this coat? She asked. → She asked if / whether he liked this coat.
Will Mary be free tomorrow? I don’t know. → I don’t know if / whether Mary will be free tomorrow.
(2) 一般情况下,whether和if用于引导宾语从句时可以通用,但在下列情况下,whether和if的用法有区别:
A.whether后可以接不定式短语,而if不能。
e.g. I can’t decide whether to go to Beijing.
我不能决定是否去北京。
B.当引导的从句作介词宾语时,只能用whether,不能用if。
e.g. They’re talking about whether they can finish the work on time.
他们正在谈论他们是否能按时完成工作。
C.whether引导的从句可移至句首,if则不行。
e.g. Whether this is true or not, I can’t say.
这是不是真的,我不敢说。
D.动词discuss后面的宾语从句,只用whether引导,不用if。
e.g. We discussing whether we will have a sports meeting next week.
我们正在讨论下周是否举行运动会。
E.当从句中有 “or not” 时,or not可以紧接whether之后,也可以位于句末,此时,一般不用if。
e.g. Please tell me whether or not he’ll come here. = Please tell me whether he’ll come here or not.
请告诉我他是否会来这儿。
F.whether和if一般引导肯定形式的宾语从句,若宾语从句是否定形式,表示“是否”的连词只能用if。
e.g. We want to know if they won’t come truly.
我们想知道他们是不是真的不来。
(3)whether和if除共同可以引导宾语从句,各自还可以用来引导其他类型的从句。
① if可以引导条件状语从句,意为“如果”,whether不能。
e.g. The students will go on a picnic if it is sunny tomorrow.
如果明天天气晴朗,学生们要去野餐。
② whether可以引导让步状语从句,意为“不管,无论”之意。
e.g. Hainan Island is the place to be, whether it’s summer or winter.
不管是夏天还是冬天,海南岛都是应该去的地方。

if或whether引导宾语从句时,作“是否”讲,常放在动词ask 、see 、say 、know和find out等后面。一般情况下,两者常可换用,在口语中多用if。如:例1 Nobody knows whether (if) it will rain tomorrow. 没有人知道明天是否下雨。例2 Lucy asked whether (if) they had a cotton sweater .露西问他们是否有棉制的羊毛衣。二、if或whether引导宾语从句时,要注意三个方面,即连词、语序和时态。1 if或whether不能和that 或其它连词(副词)同时使用,也不能省去。如:例3 我不知道他今天是否会来。[误] I don’t know that if(whether) he will come here today .[正] I don’t know if(whether) he will come here today .例4他走过来看看猫是否出了毛病。[误] He came to see what if (whether) there was wrong with his cat .[正] He came to see if (whether) there was wrong with his cat .2 if或whether引导的宾语从句时,虽具有疑问意义,但从句语序应用陈述句语序。如:例5 Did you know the way to the hospital ? The old woman asked me .The old woman asked me .if (whether) I knew the way to the hospital .老妇人问我是否知道去医院的路。3 if或whether引导的宾语从句应和主句的时态保持一致。即主句为一般现在时,从句用任一种时态;主句为一般过去时,从句则用过去时中的任一种时态。如:例6 I don’t know if (whether) he has come here . 我不知道他是否来过这儿。例7 Tom asked if (whether) I had read the book . 汤姆问我是否看过这本书 。三、if和whether的区别:1 在动词不定式之前只能用whether 。如:例8 I can’t decide whether to stay. 我不能决定是否留下。2 在whether …… or not 的固定搭配中。如:例9 I want to know whether it’s good news or not . 我想知道是否是好消息。3 在介词后,只能用whether。如:例10 His father is worried about whether he lose his work . 他的父亲担心是否会失去工作。4宾语从句放在句首表示强调时,只能用whether 。如:例11 Whether they can finish the work on time is still a problem . 他们是否能准时完成这项工作还是个问题。5用if会引起歧义时,只用whether。如:例12 Could you tell me if you know the answer ?这句话有两种意思:“你能告诉我是否知道答案吗?”或“如果你知道答案,请告诉我,好吗?”如用whether可避免歧义。
