语法感悟

(1)名词性从句是英语中三大从句(状语从句、名词性从句和定语从句)之一。
(2)名词性从句具有名词的功能,因此在句中与名词的功能几乎相同:作主语、宾语、表语和同位语。
(3)从美文中可以看出:
1、2、3、4和6在句中作宾语。
5在句中作主语。
名词性从句相当于名词,包括宾语从句、主语从句、表语从句和同位语从句。其引导词如下表所示:

Ⅰ.that引导的名词性从句
1.that引导的各种名词性从句都是陈述一个事实,没有疑问的含义。that只起引导作用,本身没有实际意义。
It is clear that you have made a big mistake in your experiment.
很明显,你在做实验时犯了一个很大的错误。
It is a wonder that the wounded soldier is still alive.
那个受伤的士兵还活着,真是个奇迹。
2.that引导名词性从句,在宾语从句中经常可以省略,但引导主语从句时一般不省略。在表语从句和同位语从句中有时可以省略。
The truth is (that) I have never been there.
真实情况是我从未到过那里。
The warning(that)teenagers should not smoke is reasonable.
青少年被警告不应该吸烟是合理的。
[即学活用1]——判断下列各句中的名词性从句的种类
①That our team had won the match made us excited. 主语从句
②The headmaster said that our team had won the match. 宾语从句
③The fact was that our team had won the match. 表语从句
④The headmaster announced the news that our team had won the match. 同位语从句
Ⅱ.whether/if引导的名词性从句
1.whether表示“是否”,它引导的名词性从句具有“一般疑问句”的特点,如果用whether...or...就是间接的“选择疑问句”。其作句子主语时,我们也可用形式主语it代替,把whether从句后置。
It doesn't matter too much whether she will agree with me.
她是否同意我的意见无关紧要。
2.if也有“是否”的含义,它主要用来引导宾语从句,例如“I wonder whether/if the conclusion is true.(我想知道这个结论是否正确)”。它引导主语从句时,不能放在句首,例如我们不可以说“If the conclusion is true hasn't been proved.”。
3.但若用it作形式主语,则可以用if引导主语从句,例如“It hasn't been proved whether/if the conclusion is true.”。此外,if一般不能引导表语从句和同位语从句。
[即学活用2]——完成句子

②I wonder whether/if_she_can_pass_the_driving_test (她能否通过驾驶测试)this time.
③What I want to know is whether_she_is_willing_to_help_us (她是否乐意帮助我们).
④There is still some doubt whether_the_work_is_worth_doing (这工作是否值得做).
Ⅲ.代词引导的名词性从句
1.连接代词包括what,which,who,whom,whose以及表示强调的whatever,whichever,whoever,whomever等。
2.这些词在从句中分别起到主语、宾语、表语或定语的作用。
Who will take charge of the project has not been decided yet.

By the mid1920s,Pablo Picasso,one of the most influential artists of the 20th century,had been one of the most celebrated men.In 1957,when Pablo Picasso was in his seventh decade,he joked that Xray technology might one day reveal a lost work underneath one of his early paintings.Today,that prediction has become a reality although the technology involved goes far beyond Xrays.
Using hypermodern tools to peer into one of his Blue Period paintings,researchers not only have shown a hidden piece of art history in astonishing new detail,but also have revealed a striking amount of insight into Picasso's creative process and style.
The investigation focused on La Miséreuse Accroupie,or Crouching(蜷坐的) Woman,painted in 1902 and currently owned by the Art Gallery.The painting,an oil on canvas (画布) piece drawing a crouching woman who wears a long coat,shows Picasso's typical Blue Period colours:grey,green,blue and white.It shows that the innovative modernist was inspired by the lines of an underlying landscape painted by an unknown artist.
The analysis also exposes several changes to the woman described in the painting,many of which Picasso ultimately abandoned.Researchers released their findings on Saturday's press conference of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Austin,Texas.“We think now it's a landscape painted by someone enrolled at the fine arts academy in Barcelona,someone in Picasso's orbit but not in his close circle,” says Kenneth Brummel,assistant curator of modern art for the Art Gallery of Ontario.
As to why Picasso would have ‘recycled’ another artist's canvas,reasons could range from economic necessity,as a young artist still establishing himself,to deep inspiration driven by the lines of the image already laid down there.Picasso often reused canvases for this reason.
“He didn't shave off the canvas or put a preparatory layer over it,”Brummel says.“Picasso saw this landscape,found inspiration,and decided he was going to paint it immediately.”
4.According to the text,what's the most likely process of Picasso's painting?
①Picasso reused another artist's canvas.
②Inspired by a landscape painting,Picasso decided to paint one too.
③Picasso painted a woman on the landscape painting.
④Not happy with the landscape,Picasso covered it totally.
⑤Picasso made changes to the woman.
A.②③④ B.④②③
C.①③⑤ D.②①④
5.How did Picasso deal with the landscape painting?
A.He reused it because he hated wasting anything.
B.He hid his own paintings beneath the landscape.
C.He took advantage of it and created a new one.
D.He kept it to himself with the permission of its owner.
6.What can we infer from the passage?
A.People often celebrated Picasso's success.
B.Picasso was not welloff when he started his career.
C.Picasso became successful overnight.
D.Picasso was good at imitating other artists' works.
7.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Picasso's predication turned out to be a joke
B.High technology uncovered art mysteries
C.Seeing is not always believing
D.A lost artwork found under a famous Picasso painting
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。介绍了在毕加索名画下发现的一件遗失的艺术品。
4.C [细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Picasso would have ‘recycled’another artist's canvas”可知,毕加索重新使用了另一位画家的画布;根据最后一段内容“‘He didn't shave off the canvas or put a preparatory layer over it,’Brummel says.‘Picasso saw this landscape,found inspiration,and decided he was going to paint it immediately’”可知,毕加索直接在风景画上画了一个女人;根据倒数第三段第一句“The analysis also exposes several changes to the woman described in the painting,many of which Picasso ultimately abandoned.”可知,毕加索对画中的女人做了一些更改。结合细节并根据逻辑关系可知应选C。]
5.C [细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Picasso saw this landscape,found inspiration,and decided he was going to paint it immediately.”可知,毕加索是利用这幅风景画创作了一幅新的画作。故选C。]
6.B [推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“As to why Picasso would have‘recycled’another artist's canvas,reasons could range from economic necessity,as a young artist still establishing himself...”可推知,毕加索刚开始他的事业时并不富裕。故选B。]
7.D [主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“In 1957,when Pablo Picasso was in his seventh decade,he joked that Xray technology might one day reveal a lost work underneath one of his early paintings.Today,that prediction has become a reality although the technology involved goes far beyond Xrays.”并结合文章主要内容可知,本文主要讲述了在毕加索名画下发现的遗失的艺术品,所以短文最佳标题应是“在毕加索名画下发现的一件遗失的艺术品”。故选D。]
