名词性从句的用法之表语从句.doc

名词性从句从句有名词性从句、定语从句和状语从句三大类。名词性从句又可分为宾语从句、表语从句、主语从句及同位语从句，因为从句的在这个句子中的功用相当于名词；定语从句有称为形容词性从句，因为从句功能相当于形容词；而状语从句则称为副词性从句，因为从句功能相当于副词 。 什么是名词性从句?在英语的句子结构中，本来该由名词充当的主语、宾语、表语和同位语，由一个句子来充当,这个句子就叫名词性从句。宾语从句 ( The Object Clause)表语从句 ( The Predicative Clause)主语从句 ( The Subject Clause)同位语从句 ( The Appositive Clause)表语从句一定义在句中充当表语的从句(即放在be动词后面)叫做表语从句。二构成一般结构是“主语关联词表语从句”。Our purpose is that he can realize his faults.我们的目的是他能认识到错误。注意：引导表语从句的连接词一般不省略。The question is whether it is worth doing.问题是它是否值得做。注意：表语从句表示“是否” 只用“whether” 而不用“if”。三引导表语从句的关联词的种类1. 可接表语从句的连系动词有be，look，seem，sound，appear等。China is no longer what she used to be.今日的中国不再是过去的中国了。At that time，it seemed as if I couldnt think of the right word.当时，我似乎怎么也想不出一个恰当的字眼来。2. 从属连词whether，as，as if / though引导的表语从句。He looked just as he had looked ten years before.他看起来还与十年前一样。It sounds as if someone is knocking at the door.听起来好像有人在敲门。3. because，why引导的表语从句。Thats because he didnt understand me.那是因为他没有理解我。（Thats because强调原因）Thats why he got angry with me.那正是他对我生气的原因。（Thats why强调结果）注意：what引导的主语从句表示结果或名词reason作主语时，后面的表语从句表示原因时要用that引导，不宜用because.The reason why I was sad was that he didnt understand me.我难过的原因是他没有理解我。4. 连接代词who，whom，whose，what，which，whoever，whatever，whichever连接副词 where，when，how，whyThe problem is who we can get to replace her.问题是我们能找到谁去替换她呢。The question is how he did it.问题是他是如何做此事的。That was what she did this morning on reaching the attic.那就是她今晨上了阁楼干的。5. 从属连词thatThe trouble is that I have lost his address.麻烦是我把他的地址丢了。6. 使用虚拟语气的表语从句在表示建议、劝告、命令含义的名词后的表语从句，谓语动词需用“should+动词原形” 表示，should可省略。常见的词有：advice，suggestion，order，proposal，plan，idea等。My suggestion is that we （should） start early tomorrow.我的建议是我们明天一早就出发。四应注意的问题：1. 连系动词be，appear，seem，look等之后可以跟表语从句。It was because he didnt pass the exam.那是因为他没有通过考试。It seems（that）he was late for the train.看来他没搭上火车。It appears that she was wrong.看来她错了。It seems to me that we should answer for this.在我看来，我们似乎应该对此事负责。It appears to her that he wants to teach us all he has.在她看来，他似乎要把他所会的都教给我们。2. 引导表语从句的引导词有以下几类。1）wh-疑问词My question is who left.我想问的是谁离开了。What I wonder is when he left.我想知道他是何时离开的。Thats what he wants.那是他想要的。This is where they once lived.这就是他们曾经住过的地方。That is why he didnt come here. 这就是他为何没到这儿来的原因。2）whetherMy question is whether he left（or not）。 我的问题是他是否离开了。注：if不能引导表语从句。3）thatThe fact is that he left. 事实是他离开了。注：引导表语从句的连词that间或可以省略。The truth is（that）I didnt go there. 事实是我没去那儿。4）because，as，as if，as thoughIts just because he doesnt know her. 这是仅仅因为他不认识她。Things are not always as they seem to be. 事物并不总是如其表象。He looks as if hes tired. 他好像累了。高考回顾考题1The traditional view is _ we sleep because our brain is “programmed” to make us do so.
