4、，不能省略，语序为陈述语序。e.g What he said at the meeting is important.他在会上所说的事情是重要的。 Whoever leaves the office should tell me.无论是谁离开办公室都应该告诉我。(4)用it作形式主语的主语从句结构a. It is +名词+从句 It is a fact that 事实是类似的名词还有：a pity； no wonder；等。b. It is +形容词+从句It is necessary that 有必要It is clear that 很清楚It is likely that 很可能It is

5、 important that 重要的是It is essential that he should be here by the weekend .周末之前，他应该到这里是必要的。c. It is +过去分词+从句It is said that 据说 It is reported that 据报道d. It +不及物动词+从句It seems that 好像是 It happened that 碰巧It now appears that they are in urgent need of help. 2. 宾语从句用作宾语的从句叫宾语从句。1.引导宾语从句的关联词有三类：(1) 从属连词t

6、hat。如： He told us that he felt ill. 他对我们说他感到不舒服。 I know he has returned. 我知道他已经回来了。注： that在引导宾语从句时也并不是任何情况下都可以省略。在以下情况下，that不能省略。 1. Everybody could see what happened and that Tom was frightened. and连接两个宾语从句，that宾语从句放在and的后面时，that不能省略。 2. I know nothing about him except that he is from the south. th

7、at引导的宾语从句作介词宾语时，that不能省略。主句谓语动词与that从句之间有插入语，that不可省略。(2)从属连词if/whether。如：I doubt whether he will succeed. 我怀疑他是否会成功。I dont know if you can help me. 我不知道你能否帮助我。(3)连接代词who, whom, whose, what, which, whoever, whatever, whichever 连接副词 where, when, how, why。I wonder what hes writing to me about. 我不知道他要给

9、 yesterday. He has made it clear that he will not give in.他已表明他不会屈服。4. 某些形容词或过去分词后常接宾语从句，这类形容词或过去分词有sure, glad, certain, pleased, happy, afraid, surprised, satisfied等，连词that可省略。如： I am not sure what I ought to do.我不能确定我该做什么。5. 连词whether (or not)或if引导的宾语从句 if和whether引导的宾语从句可以互换使用，但whether常和or not连用，i

10、f一般不与or not连用。如 I wonder whether it is true or not. 我不知它是真是假。3. 表语从句表语从句放在连系动词之后，充当复合句中的表语, 一般结构是“主语连系动词表语从句”。可接表语从句的连系动词有be，look，seem，sound，appear等。The question remains whether they will be able to help us.问题还是他们能否帮我们。At that time，it seemed as if I couldn't think of the right word. 引导表语从句的关联词的种

11、类：(1）从属连词thate.g The trouble is that I have lost his address. 麻烦是我把他的地址丢了。that是连词,没有词义，在句中不作成分，因此一般不可省略(但在口语中有时that可省略)。(2) 从属连词whether，as，as if / though引导的表语从句。如：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

13、whom，whose，what，which，whoever，whatever，whichever 连接副词 where，when，how，whye.g The 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) 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“sho

14、uld+动词原形” 表示，should可省略。常见的词有：advice，suggestion，order，proposal，plan，idea等。e.g My suggestion is that we （should） start early tomorrow. 我的建议是我们明天一早就出发。4. 同位语从句英语中有一些名词如fact, idea, news, word, hope, promise, suggestion, reply, problem, belief, doubt, truth, order, thought等，它们本身有一定的意义，但表达得不够具体。为了使其表达的意义更

15、加具体明确，其后常跟有一个从句，用来补充说明该名词的内容，这个从句就叫做同位语从句。(1) 同位语从句的引导词表示陈述意义时通常用that。注意that不能省略。同位语从句说明的名词常见的有：ability, advice, answer, belief, doubt, discovery, fact, fear, hope, idea, information, message, news, order, possibility, problem, proposal, question, story, suggestion, theory, thought, word(消息)等,同位语从句一

16、般都是用来解释说明一些抽象名词，而不可说明的名词是不会接同位语从句的。比如：man, water, sun等具体的人或事物。e.g There is no doubt that the prices of cars will go down. The belief that the company will make a great is shared by everyone.表示“是否”的意思时只能用whether，不能用if。这一点与主语从句相似。e.g The question whether he can finish the work within two days remains

17、unknown.表示疑问时也可用其他引导词where, when, why, how, who, what来引导。e.g This student asked a good question why pollution cant be stopped. I have no idea where I should go. I have no idea how I can get to the railway station.(2) 同位语从句和定语从句的区别 定语从句相当于一个形容词, 它对先行词起修饰、描述和限制的作用。同位语从句相当于名词，属于名词性从句，它是对前面名词内容的具体表述，它们之

18、间的关系是同位关系。试比较： The news that you heard is not true. 你听到的那个消息不是真的。（定语从句） The news that he has died is true. 他已经去世的消息是真的。（同位语从句，说明了 news 的具体内容，即he has died） 同位语从句常跟在 news, fact, promise, idea, word, message, hope, truth, answer, proposal, suggestion, order, information 等少数名词之后，而一般名词之后都可跟定语从句。e.g He di

19、dnt give the answer why he was late. 他没回答他为什么迟到这个问题。（同位语从句） Then rose a question where we should go. 于是产生了一个问题：我们该到哪里去？（同位语从句） that 在定语从句中充当某一成分, 是关系代词; that 在同位语从句中不作任何成分，仅把主句与从句连接在一起，是从属连词。如： The fact that just now you talked about interests me. The fact that he failed in the exam made his parents

20、 very angry. 他考试没及格这个事实使他的父母很生气。（同位语从句） when, where, why, how, who, whom, which 如果引导定语从句, 它们分别指前面先行词所表示的时间、地点、原因、方式、人和物，否则引导的就是同位语从句。试比较： I still remember the day when he was killed. 我还记得他被害的那一天。(定语从句) I have no idea when he was killed. 我不知道他什么时候被害的。（同位语从句） They didn't go to the town where they

21、were born.他们没有去他们出生的小镇。(定语从句) They didn't answer the question where they were born.他们没有回答他们在哪里出生这个问题。（同位语从句） whether, what 可引导同位语从句，但通常不可引导定语从句。 e.g We have no information whether he is alive. 我们不知道他是否活着。（同位语从句） Next comes the question what step we should take. 接着的问题是我们下一步该做什么。（同 位语从句）1.
