语法详解
that引导的宾语从句
一、宾语从句的定义
用于充当宾语的句子,我们称之为“宾语从句”。常接that引导的宾语从句的谓语动词有:think, hear, hope, say, tell, wish, believe, see, expect等。如:
◇Lingling's uncle said that it was an animal.
◇Everyone believes that Tom is an honest boy.
二、宾语从句的分类
1.that引导的宾语从句
2.whether/if引导的宾语从句
3.疑问词引导的宾语从句
三、that引导的宾语从句
本模块我们重点学习that引导的宾语从句。当谓语动词表示肯定的概念,如“希望”“相信”“知道”或“说”时,其后面的宾语从句一般用that引导。
1.that的省略:引导词that只起连接主、从句的作用,它本身没有任何意义,多数情况下,可以省略。如:
We all believe (that) life will be better and better in the future.
2. 宾语从句的“否定前置”:think, believe, suppose等词作主句的谓语,且主句的主语是第一人称时,宾语从句的否定通常要转移到主句中。如:
I don't believe he can pass the exam.
3. 常见的that不能省略的情况:
(1)it作形式宾语时, that引导的宾语从句中的that不能省略。如:
We thought it strange that Xiao Wang did not come yesterday.
(2)that引导的宾语从句放在except, but 等介词后面的时候, that不能省略。如:
He is a good student except that he is a little careless.
(3)当that引导的宾语从句是双宾语中的直接宾语时, that不能省略。如:
The foreign friend tells us that Chinese is one of the most difficult languages to learn.
4. that从句的时态:当主句是一般现在时时,that从句可以根据实际情况采用任何时态;如果主句是一般过去时,that从句要用过去的某种时态(如一般过去时、过去进行时、过去完成时、过去将来时);如果that从句表示的是客观事实或真理,即使主句是过去时,从句也用一般现在时。如:
Our teacher told us that the earth travels around the sun.
