1）主语从句在句首时，必须由连接词引导，不能省略这些连接词。误：Theyshouldlikeeachotherisnatural.2)如果主语从句放在句首，不能用if引导，但是如果用it做形式主语，而把主语从句放在句末时，也可以用if引导.误：IfMaryreallyheardhimisreallydoubtful.注意正：Thattheyshouldlikeeachotherisnatural.

Itisnaturalthattheyshouldlikeeachother.正：WhetherMaryreallyheardhimisreallydoubtful.ItwasdoubtfulifMaryreallyheardhim.Whatyouleftareonlyseveraloldbooks.Whatyousaidisofgreatimportance.3）主语从句中用陈述语序4）主谓一致主句谓语一般用单数形式。1.“what”和“who”引导主语从句时，谓语动词的数与主句中作表语的名词一致。Howhesucceededisstillapuzzle.2.如果and连接两个或者两个以上的主语从句作主语时，谓语动词用复数；由两个或多个连接词引导一个主语从句时，谓语动词用单数。Whentheywillstartandwheretheywillgo____notbeendecidedyet.Whenandwherethemeetingwillbeheld____notbeendecided.havehas5).用于Itisimportant/natural/necessary/impossiblethat...句型中,主语从句应使用虚拟语气,用“should+动词原形”的形式,should有时可以省略。6).在It+be+suggested/advised/ordered/requested/insisted/required中,that从句的谓语也应该用“should+动词原形”的形式,should有时可以省略。1.Whereshallwespendtheholidayisn’tdecided.2.Youhavemadeamistakeisafact.3.Thatiscertainthatwecanwin.4.Nomatterwholeavestheroomlastoughttoturnoffthelights.5.Ifthepolicemenwillcomeisnotcertain.weshallThatyouhaveItisWhoeverwhether改错练习6.Itissaythathewasafamouswriter.7.Itisseemedthatitisgoingtorainsoon.8.Thatisfactthatshewonthefirstplace.9.Wholeavestheroomlastoughttoturnoffthelights.10.Itisimportantthatastudentlearnsaforeignlanguage.saidseemsItisafactWhoevershouldlearn___hemadeanimportantspeechatthemeetingwastrue.
