英語語法:名詞性從句最詳分析
名詞性從句是由if, whether, that 和各種疑問詞充當連接詞所引導的從句,其功同名詞一樣。
一、主語從句
主語從句是在復合句中充當主語的從句,通常放在主句謂語動詞之前或由形式主語it代替,而本身放在句子末尾。
1. It 作形式主語和it引導強調句的比較
It 作形式主語代替主語從句,主要是為了平衡句子結構,主語從句的連接詞沒有變化。而it引導的強調句則是對句子某一部分進行強調,無論強調的是什么成分,都可用連詞that。被強調部分指人是也可用who/whom。例如:
It is a pity that you didn't go to see the film.
It doesn't interest me whether you succeed or not.
It is in the morning that the murder took place.
It is John that broke the window.
2. 用it 作形式主語的結構
(1) It is +名詞+從句
It is a fact that …事實是…
It is an honor that…非常榮幸
It is common knowledge that…是常識
(2) it is +形容詞+從句
It is natural that…很自然…
It is strange that…奇怪的是…
(3) it is +不及物動詞+從句
It seems that…似乎…
It happened that…碰巧…
(4) it +過去分詞+從句
It is reported that…據報道…
It has been proved that…已證實…
3. 主語從句不可位于句首的五種情況
(1) if 引導的主語從句不可居于復合句句首。
(2) It is said , (reported) …結構中的主語從句不可提前。例如:
It is said that President Jingo will visit our school next week. (right)
That President Jiang will visit our school next week is said. (wrong)
(3) It happens…, It occurs… 結構中的主語從句不可提前。例如:
It occurred to him that he failed in the examination. (right)
That he failed in the examination occurred to him. (wrong)
(4) It doesn't matter how/whether …結構中的主語從句不可提前。例如:
It doesn't matter whether he is wrong or not. (right)
Whether he is wrong or not doesn't matter. (wrong)
(5) 含主語從句的復合句是疑問句時,主語從句不可提前。例如:
Is it likely that it will rain in the evening? (right)
Is that will rain in the evening likely? (wrong)
4. What 與that 在引導主語從句時的區別
What 引導主語從句時在句時在從句中充當句子成分,如主語.賓語.表語,而that 則不然。例如:
1) What you said yesterday is right.
2) That she is still alive is a consolation.
二、賓語從句
賓語從句就是在復合句中作賓語的名詞性從句,通常放在主句謂語動詞(及物動詞)或介詞之后。
1. 作動詞的賓語
(1) 由that引導的賓語從句(that 通?梢允÷),例如:
I heard that be joined the army.
(2) 由what, whether (if) 引導的賓語從句,例如:
1) She did not know what had happened.
2) I wonder whether you can change this note for me.
(3) 動詞+間接賓語+賓語從句。例如:
She told me that she would accept my invitation.
2. 作介詞的賓語
例如:Our success depends upon how well we can cooperate with one another.
3. 作形容詞的賓語
例如:I am afraid (that) I've made a mistake.
That 引導的從句常跟在下列形容詞后作賓語:
Anxious, aware, certain, confident, convinced, determined, glad, proud, surprised, worried, sorry, thankful, ashamed, disappointed, annoyed, pleased, hurt, satisfied, content 等。也可以將此類詞后的that 從句的看作原因狀語從句。
4. It 可以作為形式賓語
It 不僅可以作為形式主語,還可以作為形式賓語而真正的賓語that 從句則放在句尾,特別是在帶復合賓語的句子中。 例如:
We heard it that she would get married next month..
5. 后邊不能直接跟that 從句的動詞
這類動詞有Allow, refuse, let, like, cause, force, admire, condemn, celebrate, dislike, love, help, take, forgive等。這類詞后可以用不定式或動名詞作賓語,但不可以用that引導的賓語從句。例如:
I admire their winning the match. (right)
I admire that they won the match. (wrong)
6. 不可用that從句作直接賓語的動詞
有些動詞不可用于“動詞+間接賓語+that從句“結構中,常見的有Envy, order, accuse, refuse, impress, forgive, blame, denounce, advise, congratulate等。例如:
He impressed the manager as an honest man. (right)
He impressed the manager that he was an honest man. (wrong)
7. 否定的轉移
若主句謂語動詞為Think, consider, wuppose, believe, expect, fancy, guess, imagine等,其后的賓語從句若含有否定意義,一般要把否定詞轉移到主句謂語上,從句謂語用肯定式。例如:
I don't think this dress fits you well.(我認為這件衣服不適合你穿。)
三、表語從句
表語從句在復合句中作表語的名詞性從句,表語是用來說明主語的身份、性質、品性、特征和狀態的,表語常由名詞、形容詞、副詞、介詞短語、不定式、動詞的-ing、從句來充當,它常位于系動詞(be, become, appear, seem,look,sound,feel,get,smell等詞)之后。
引導表語從句的詞有連詞that, whether,連接代詞和連接副詞,關系代詞型what,以及as if, as though, because等連詞。
1. 由that引導

【連詞that的省略問題】
引導表語從句的that通常不省略,但在口語或非正式文體中有時也可省略:
My idea is (that) we should do it right away. 我的意見是我們應該馬上干。
The trouble is (that) he is ill. 糟糕的是他病了。
2. 由whether引導
The question is whether the film is worth seeing. 問題是這部電影是否值得看。

3. 由連接代詞引導

【注意】because 可引導表語從句,但與之同義的since, as, for等也不用于引導表語從句。
四、同位語從句
同位語從句指的是在復合句中充當同位語的從句,屬于名詞性從句的范疇,同位語從句用來對其前面的抽象名詞進行解釋說明,被解釋說明的詞和同位語在邏輯上是主表關系。
