特殊疑问词引导的名词性从句
英语中所有用来构成特殊疑问句的特殊疑问词均可用来引导名词性从句,其选择取决于从句句意的需要。 It remained unknown who(谁) let out the news. I don’t know what(什么)I was thinking of. The problem is where(哪里) we should stay.
My question how(怎样)I shall get in touch with him has not been answered. 选择特殊疑问词需注意的情况: 1.要注意特殊疑问词在从句中所担当的句子成分:疑问代词可作主语、宾语和表语,而疑问副词(where, when, why, how)只能作状语。如:
I can’t imagine who did it. (作主语) I can’t imagine how he did it. (作状语) 2.Who在从句中既能作主语,也能作宾语,而whom只能作宾语。如: It hasn’t been decided who will manage the company. They haven’t decided whom they should help. 以关系词引导的名词性从句
用关系词引导的名词性从句又可称作名词性关系从句,因为它实际上是先行词与在其后的定语从句的结合。引导这种名词性从句的关系词有:what(=the thing that), whoever(=anyone who), whichever(=anyone/anything that), where(=the place where), when(=the time when)等。如:
What they need is a good rest. I can judge by what I know of him. Whoever did this job must be rewarded. Whichever he likes will be given to him. We shall not forget when the meeting will be held. She walked up to where he stood. 用关系词引导名词性从句时需要注意wh-ever与no matter wh-的区别。Wh-ever既可引导名词性从句,又可引导让步状语从句;而no matter wh-只能引导让步状语从句。如:
Whatever I said, he wouldn’t listen to me. =No matter what I said, he wouldn’t listen to me.(让步状语从句)
He would believe whatever I said. (引导宾语从句)
Whichever/No matter which you choose, the others will be offended.
Take whichever you like. 这里句中的whichever在不能用no matter what替换 用适当的连词填空:
1. ________ we need money is quite clear.
2. _________ the car can be used has not been known yet.
3. ________ we can’t understand is _________he didn’t join us in our discussion. 4. The fact ________ he is a model teacher is well-known.
