主语从句一、主语从句的连词分三类(1)从属连词引导的主语从句(thatwhetherif)that引导的主语从句:引导词that无含义/在句中不做成分/不可以省。That引导主语从句通常用it作形式主语。例如:Thatyouwillwinthemedalseemsunlikely.Thatshesurvivedtheaccidentisamiracle.whether引导的主语从句:whether有含义(是否)/在句中不做成分/不可以省。注意:引导主语从句,不能用if不能在开头,只能用whether。Whetherwewillholdapartyintheopenairtomorrowdependsontheweather.Whethersheiscomingornotdoesn’tmattertoomuch.(2)用连接代词引导的主语从句在由连接代词who,whose,whom,which,what,whoever,whomever,whichever,whatever引导的名词性从句中,其连接代词在句中起名词性作用,担当一定成分.例如:Whatyouneedismorepractice.Whateverwedoistoservethepeople.注:whatever/whoever的功用whatever,whoever在主语从句中不含疑问意义。它引导主语从句,并在从句中作主语、宾语、表语等。whatever=anythingthat;whoever=anyonewho。要注意和whatever,whoever引导的让步状语从句的区别。如:Whoeverbreaksthelawshouldbepunished.(主语从句)(=Anyonewhobreaksthelawshouldbepunished.)Whoeverbreaksthelaw,heshouldbepunished.(让步状语从句)(=Nomatterwhobreaksthelaw,heshouldbepunished.)(3)用连接副词when,where,why,how引导的名词性从句(其连接副词有含义,在句中作状语。)例如:Whereweshouldleaveitisaproblem.Whentheywillcomehasn’tbeenmadepubic.三、it作形式主语的主语从句有时为了考虑句子平衡,通常在主语从句处使用形式主语it,而将真正的主语从句移至句末。这分四种情况:(1)对于以连词that引导的主语从句,通常用形式主语it替代主语从句:aItis+名词+从句Itisafactthat…事实是……;Itisgoodnewsthat………是好消息;Itisaquestionthat………是个问题;Itiscommonknowledgethat………是常识类似的名词还有:apity;awonder;agoodthing;nowonder;surprise等。Itisamysterytomehowitallhappened.Itiscommonknowledgethatthewhaleisnotafish.ItisnosurprisethatBobshouldhavewonthegame.bItis+形容词+从句Itisnecessarythat…有必要……;Itisclearthat…很清楚……;Itislikelythat…很可能……;Itisimportantthat…重要的是……类似的形容词还有:strange;natural;obvious;true;good;wonderful;possible;unlikely;quite;unusual;certain;evident;worth-while;surprising;interesting;astonishing,etc.Itisdoubtfulwhethershewillbeabletocome.Itisessentialthatheshouldbeherebytheweekend.Itseemsobviousthatwecannotgoonlikethis.Itisnecessarythatyou(should)masterthecomputer.需要注意的是这类主语从句中,谓语动词很多为“(should)+动词原形”,即要用虚拟语气。cItis+过去分词+从句Itissaidthat…据说……;Itisreportedthat…据报道……;Ithasbeenprovedthat…已证明……;Itmustbeprovedthat…必须指出……类似的过去分词还有:known;estimated;expected;believed;thought;hoped;noted;discussed;required;decided;suggested;demanded;madeclear;foundout,etc.例如:Itisusedtobethoughtthatanewstarmustbeduetoacollisionbetweentwostars.Ithasnotbeenmadeclearwhenthenewroadistobeopenedtotraffic.dItseems不及物动词(happened/appears/doesn’t’tmatter/makesnodifference/occurred…)that…主语从句不可提前Itmakesnodifferencewhetherhewillattendthemeetingornot.ItdoesnotmatterifImissedmytrain.IthappenedthatIsawhimyesterday.(2)对于以连接代词(副词)引导的主语从句,可以使用形式主语代主语从句,也可直接在句首使用主语从句:Whethertheywouldsupportuswasaproblem.他们是否会支持我们还是一个问题。Itwasaproblemwhethertheywouldsupportus.他们是否会支持我们还是一个问题。(3)对关系代词型what引导的主语从句,通常直接将主语从句放在句首。如:Whatweneedismoney.我们需要的是钱。WhatIwanttoknowisthis.我想知道的就是这一点。有时也可将助用形式主语。如:Itisclearenoughwhathemeant.他是什么意思很清楚。(4)如果句子是疑问句,则必须用带形式主语it的结构:Isittruethatheisthegirl’sfather?他是那女孩的父亲,是真的吗?Howisitthatyouarelateagain?你怎么又迟到了?四、连词that的省略问题引导主语从句的连词that有时可省,有时不能省,其原则是:若that引导的主语从句直接位于句首,则that不能省略;若that引导的主语从句位于句末,而在句首使用了形式主语it,则that可以省略:Thatyoudidn’tgotothetalkwasapity.很遗憾你没去听报告。(that不可省)Itwasapity(that)youdidn’tgotothetalk.很遗憾你没去听报告。(that可省)高考题:1、Itneveroccurredtome__C_youcouldsucceedinpersuadinghimtochangehismind.(陕西高考)A.whichB.whatC.thatD.If首先要理解句意.这句话的意思是说,我从来没想到你能够成功地说服他去改变,而不是我从来没想到你能否成功地说服他改变.第二,Itneveroccurredtome是用于对于某个已发生的事实表示惊讶、吃惊的句型,所以这里youcouldsucceedinpersuadinghimtochange这个事实只能用that来引导;if是用于引导一个不确定性(uncertainty)的,这里不可以用.2、It'sobvioustothestudents___B_____theyshouldgetwellpreparedfortheirfuture.(天津卷)A.asB.thatC.whichD.Whether考查名词性从句中的主语从句用法.此处要分析句子结构,看出it为形式主语,代替thattheyshouldgetwellpreparedfortheirfuture,并且本句意思完整,故选D.3、____B____somepeopleregardasadrawbackisseenasaplugbymanyothers.(2010·北京)A.WhetherB.WhatC.ThatD.How考查名词性从句中的主语从句用法.此处要分析句子结构,看出it为形式主语,代替thattheyshouldgetwellpreparedfortheirfuture,并且本句意思完整,故选D.4、Itisuncertain____A____sideeffectthemedicinewillbringabout,althoughabouttwothousandpatientshavetakenit.(2010·浙江)A.thatB.howC.whatD.Whetherwhether是“是否”的意思这里应该是选B,what.因为跟后面sideeffect连起来,whatsideeffect,一起表示“是什么副作用”整句话的意思是“虽然有两千多个病人服用的这个药,但是对于其带来的具体的什么副作用还是不明确的.”根据意思来选择,只能是Bthat,how,whether都不能表达这个意思.主语从句练习题1.____C____makesmistakesmustcorrectthem.A.WhatB.ThatC.WhoeverD.Whatever这句话强调的是普遍性,所以用whoever——任何人,而不是特指谁2.Itworriedherabit___B_herhairwasturninggrey.A.whileB.thatC.ifD.for解析:句意:她的头发渐渐变得花白,使她不安.该题常错选C、D.用if和whether引导该句则句意不通.主语从句较长时,多放在句子后部,用it作形式主语,此时,that也不能省略.3.Whenandwhyhecamehere____A____yet.A.isnotknownB.arenotknownC.hasnotknownD.havenotknown因为,首先,这是现在完成时,yet是现在完成时的提示词,但是也可以是一般现在时第二,Whenandwhyhecamehere这个整个句子做主语,凡是句子做主语的,都是单数,因此是IS第三,这是被动,他何时来为什么来,还尚未为人所知悉如果是现在完成时,是hasnotbeenknown4.___C_____isnoreasonfordismissingher.A.BecauseshewasafewminuteslateB.OwingtoafewminuteslateC.ThefactthatshewasafewminuteslateD.Beingafewminuteslate首先,句子不完整,缺的是可以充当主语的名词性的从句.A和B排除,都不是D如果真的要选的话,应该为:Beingafewminuteslateisnoreasonforherbeingdismissed.这个叫主语一致吧C由thefact引导的同位语名词性从句符合要求,主干是:thefactisnoreasonfordismissingher.5.___D_____Tomlikedtoeatwasdifferentfrom________.A.That…thatyouhadexpectedB.What…thatyouhadexpectedC.That…whatyouhadexpectedD.What…whatyouhadexpected选A.A.wha
