引导定语从句的关系代词有that,which,who(宾格whom),所有格whose)和关系副词 where when why 等,关系代词或关系副词在定语从句中充当一个成分,关系代词that,which,who,whom等在从句中分别作主语或宾语,whose在从句中作定语,而关系副词when,where,why等在从句中作状语。 如: 1.I will never forget the days when/in which we worked together.
2.I will never forget the days which/that we spent together.
解析:在句①中,表示时间的名词the days在从句中充当的是状语,所以用关系副词when来代指,引导定语从句修饰先行词the days;而在句②中,表示时间的名词the days在从句中充当的是动词spent的宾语,所以用关系代词that或which来代指。 同样,表示地点或原因的名词如果在从句中作状语,则用关系副词where 或why来代指;如果在从句中作动词的宾语,则用which或that来代替。 如: 1.This is the factory where/in which I worked.(作状语)
2.This is the factory that/which I visited years ago.(作宾语)
注:当先行词为time,reason, place时,引导词可以省略。如: 1.This was the first (when/what) I had serious trouble with my boss.
2.That is the reason (why) I did it.
3.This is the place (where) we met yesterday.
另外,定语从句中谓语动词的数应与先行词的数相一致。如:1.Mr. Jackson is the only foreigner that is present at the party.
2.He is one of the students who were praised by the teacher.
解析:在句①中,先行词foreigner被only修饰,强调只有一个,所以从句中谓语动词用单数形式,而在句②中,who引导的定语从句修饰先行词the students,为复数,所以从句谓语动词应为复数。 定语从句与前面的的名词是修饰与被修饰的关系,“……的名词”,而同位语从句是用来说明前面名词的内容。与that从句同位的名词必须是一些表示事实或概念的抽象名词,如:fact,news,belief,truth,reply等。That在定语从句中必须作成分,可用which或who/whom代替,而that在同位语从句中不充当任何句子成分,只起连接作用。如: 1.Along with the letter was his promise that he would visit me this coming Christmas.
2.Do you still remember the chicken farm that we visited three months ago.
解析:在句①中,that引导同位语从句解释说明promise的内容,that不充当任何句子成分,只起连接作用,而在句②中,that在其引导的定语从句中作动词visited的宾语,对先行词the chicken farm起修饰作用。(二)名词性从句中,关于it作形式主语和形式宾语的易错点 1) 名词性从句作主语或宾语时,为保持句子平衡,常用it作形式主语或形式宾语。如:It's a pity that he don't come to give a speech.(形式主语)
We think it possible that you can finish the job today.(形式宾语)
2)谓语动词 appreciate, dislike, hate, like, love, make等接由if或when 引导的宾语从句时往往在从句前加上形式宾语it. 例如:I would appreciate it if you could come to my birthday party.
3)动词hare, take, hide, punish, put等,后接由that 引导的病因从句式,往往在从句前加形式宾语it. 例如:1.I take it that you will be leaving Shanghai soon.
2.we punished it that we had finished the project ahead of time.
4)短语动词answer for, count on depend on, insist on, see to等后接有that引导的宾语从句时,必须冠以形式宾语it. 例如:① I'm counting on it that you will come.
② She'll see to it that he goes ahead.
注:作形式主语和形式宾语时只能用it.
1.If my lawyer had been here last Saturday, he would have prevented me from going.
2.If you had studied hard at school, you would be a college student now.
句子①②都是虚拟语气在条件句中的使用,从句中都是假设过去的情况,所以用过去完成时,但在主句中,句①依然指代过去的情况,谓语动词是would have done,而②中含有一个表示现在的时间状语now, 这样就必须将其理解为假设现在的情况,所以谓语动词必须为would/should/might+动词原形,学生在这一点上经常会忽略now的存在,从而按句①的形式填写答案。1.在“it is important (strange, natural, necessary……)+that”句子或者“It is decided (ordered,suggested, demanded, advised……)+that”句子中,主语从句中的谓语动词常用(should)+动词原形结构,表示某事“重要”、“必要”、“被决定”等 1.It is important that everyone (should ) obey the rules all day and all night.
2.It is decided that the meeting (should) be held tomorrow afternoon.
2. suggest, insist 后面指宾语从句时需注意的地方 1)suggest 当“建议”“提出”讲时,其后宾语从句的谓语动词常用“should+动词原形” 例如:He suggested that the work (should) be started at once 他建议立即动工。 类似的动词还有insist坚持,demand要求,desire要求、请求,request请求,require要求、需要,order命令,propose建议,command命令,ask要求,advise建议,prefer宁愿等。 这些动词变被动语态(如:It is suggested + that主语从句)形式后,主语从句谓语动词仍用“(should)+动词原形” 这些动词变名词(如suggestion)后,其后的表语从句和同位语从句中的谓语部分仍用“(should)+动词原形” 2)suggest 当“提出(某看法),暗示,启发”讲时,其后宾语从句的动词不用虚拟语气。(1)The police suggested that the thief might be one of the family member (2)Her yawns suggests that she is sleepy. (3)Although he didn't suggest that we __ the decision to swim across the river, but his look suggested that our decision __wrong.虽然他没提出我们应该终止游过这条河的决定,但他的表情表明我们的决定是错误的。A stop; was B should stop; beC stopped;was D stopped; should be 在这个句子中,前一个suggest当“建议”“提出”讲,而后一个作“表明”讲,所以答案为“A” 3)insist作“坚决要求…该…;坚持认为…定要…”讲时,其后宾语从句的谓语动词用“(should)+动词原形” 例如:I insisted that you (should) be there on time.我坚持认为你应该准时到那里去。4)insist 作“坚持(意见,看法);坚持说,确信”讲时,其后从句不用虚拟语气。例如:He suggested (that) he heard someone in the next room. 他坚持说他听到隔壁屋子里有人。 1、在一般疑问句中,无论肯定的问或是否定的问,如果回答为肯定则用yes,反之则用no.特别注意如果出现省略则看下文所暗示的意义。 1.—Are you a new comer?
—Yes, I came here only yesterday.
2.—Isn't Tom a good student?
—Yes, he is excellent.
3.—Don't you think the composition good?
—No, It can't be any worse.
注意:在②③句中,当回答的意思与问句相一致时,则用No,译为“是的”,当回答的意思与问句相反时,则用Yes,译为“不” 1.I must leave now, mustn't I ?
2.He must be in the classroom, isn't ?(表推测)
3.He must have finished his homework, hasn't he ? (表现在的结果)
4.He must have finished his homework yesterday afternoon,didn't he? (表过去)
当句子中有表示猜测的情态动词时,其反意疑问句的构成不能再用原句中的情态动词,而应根据原句在去掉情态动词的情况下的主谓关系来确定其反问形式。非谓语与其逻辑主语(即动作的执行者或承受者)之间有三种关系,如为主谓关系,则用现在分词或不定式的主动式;如为被动关系则用过去分词、现在分词的被动(强调动作正在进行)或不定式的被动式(动作将进行);如既无主动也无被动关系则只能用状语从句或独立主格结构(即非谓语加上自己的逻辑主语)Judging/considering/genrally speaking/supposing 指说话者的动作,故只用主动式。如: Having been ill in bed for nearly a month , he had a hard time passing the exam. 解析:从这个句子可以看出,句词的逻辑主语与句子的主语he一致,并且是主谓关系,所以用了现在的分词作状语,同时,分词的动作明显地发生在句子的谓语动词动作之前,故采用了现代分词的完成式。In order to improve English , ________. A. Jenny's father bought her a lot of tapes. B. Jenny's father bought a lot of tapes for herself. C. A lot of tapes were bought by Jenny. D. A lot of tapes were bought by Jenny father. 解析:根据不定式短语我们可以推知,句子的逻辑主语应该是人而不是物,所以,应该排除CD,再就是应该是Jenny提高自己的英语,而不是她爸爸,故答案先B. ________,we decided to go out for a walk. C. Being fine D.It being fine 解析:主句主语we与动词短语be fine之间既无主动关系与无被动关系,所以要加上自己的逻辑主语It,由于不存在主、被动关系,故不能选C项,而应该选D 项。 ________more attention, the trees could have grown better. A. Given B.To give C.Giving D. Having giving 解析:give与主句的主语之间是被动关系,故选A.如为主动关系则选C.
