一、概述
在复合句中充当表语的从句叫表语从句。表语从句一般用在“主语+系动词+表语”的结构里,它最明显的特征是跟在连系动词be 之后。
二、表语从句的连接词及其句法功能
1.that引导的表语从句
that引导表语从句时只起连接作用,在句子中不作任何成分,也无任何意义,通常不能省略。
The fact is that he is old enough to go to school.
事实是他已经到了上学的年龄。
My advice is that your homework(should)be finished on time every day.
我的建议是你每天要按时完成作业。
名师点津 当主句的主语为advice,suggestion,proposal, recommendation,order, command, request, requirement等表示“建议、命令、要求”的名词时,表语从句的谓语动词要用“should+动词原形”结构表示虚拟语气,其中should可以省略。
2.whether引导的表语从句
whether 意为“是否”,引导表语从句时只起连接作用,在句子中不作任何成分。
His first question was whether Mr Smith had arrived yet.
他的第一个问题是史密斯先生到了没有。
The question is whether he has passed the test.
问题是他是否通过了测试。
名师点津 whether引导表语从句时一般不能用if替代。

My question is whose turn it is to be on duty today.我的问题是今天轮到谁值日了。
名师点津 what引导表语从句时在从句中作主语、宾语、表语或定语,相当于定语从句中的“先行词+关系代词”的形式,表示“……的事情(内容、地点、样子等)”。
What he told you was what (= the thing that) had been discussed at the meeting.
他告诉你的就是在会上讨论的内容。

天看起来要下雨了。
It sounds as if/though someone is knocking on the door.
听起来好像有人敲门。
名师点津 as if/though引导的表语从句如果描述的是事实,从句谓语动词用陈述语气;如果与事实不符,就用虚拟语气(表示与现在事实相反时,从句动词用一般过去时,be动词用were;表示与过去事实相反时,从句动词用过去完成时;表示与将来事实相反时,从句动词用would/could/might +动词原形)。
6.because引导的表语从句
because引导的表语从句通常只用于“This/ That/It is because...”结构中。

(2025·江苏省淮安市高二上期末)
Most people have probably run into this problem. When you're traveling, you want to take a photo to capture a moment, but you're alone or your friend is a poor photographer. Now with the help of social media platforms, a “travel-along photographer” can take this worry off your list.
A travel-along photographer is like a travel companion who takes photos for you for an hour or two while accompanying you to the destination of your choice. Due to this year's travel boom and social media, such photographers have grown in popularity.
“With social media platforms, every photographer can advertise for themselves and be seen,” said Shi Xinqi, a 22-year-old part-time photographer from Xiamen, Fujian Province. In the past month, Shi has photographed over 30 clients. Rui Changchang, 27, agrees. Social media platforms help him be seen and find what he has been looking for over the years.
Rui used to be a fashion photographer for celebrities, but he didn't feel the fundamental joy that he thought photography should create. From the lighting and clothing to the professional models, everything was from an assembly line. Now, he's a full-time photographer who spends most of his time at Universal Studios in Beijing. “It's very fascinating to help complete strangers become comfortable in front of the camera and capture a joyful moment for them.” Rui believes that capturing connections between people is what makes photos so touching.
But this is not a one-way service. When photographers capture these moments for their customers, they also learn something about themselves. “Most of my customers are women. I often describe them as the ‘beauty and power of women',” said Shi, relating one experience with a customer in her 30s. Shi asked her if she had any regrets in her life-to which she replied that she had none. “That woman was so confident and determined. She helped relieve my anxiety about aging,” said Shi.
However, this booming industry also has a dark side. For travel-along photographers, there are no industry standards or measures to ensure the rights of all parties. Even though the photographers are from the same city, their pricing is dramatically different.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了摄影行业正在蓬勃发展,并介绍了不同类型的摄影师以及这个行业仍然存在的问题。

Yesterday,our teacher asked us when a man could be referred to as an old man.David stood up and said people with wrinkles could be called old people.

The 5 has reminded me of the saying of J.Barrymore that a man isn't old as long as he is 6 something.
My grandma is such a woman who pursues her dream even when she's 70 now.She has 7 her dream of being a painter since she was a little child. 8 ,because her family was poor,she had to 9 her dream and stepped into the society to raise money so as to support her family.Though she has 10 abandoned her dream,she could hardly find any time to realize it because of the tough work. 11 ,chance came when she retired from her work.She began taking her painting lessons 12 she had all-white hair and lots of wrinkles.At first,I was against her idea of attending school at so old an age,but after seeing her paint happily and enjoyably,I 13 feeling it a good choice.She seems 14 and looks fine.

语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了伟大的印度物理学家C.V.拉曼的生平。
was offered
achieving
the
when
known
to analyse
1.答案:scientific
考查词性转换。空处修饰名词things,应用形容词scientific“科学的”,作定语。故填scientific。
2.答案:attended
考查动词的时态。根据时间状语in 1902可知,句子陈述过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时。故填attended。
3.答案:opportunities
考查名词的单复数。opportunity是可数名词,前边由many修饰,所以应用其复数形式opportunities。故填opportunities。
4.答案:Therefore
考查副词。根据语境可知,上下文之间是因果关系,空处应用副词therefore,表示“因此”,置于句首,首字母大写。故填Therefore。
5.答案:was offered
考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。根据时间状语in 1917可知,句子陈述过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时,且根据语境可知,此处表示“他被提供教授职位”,应用被动语态,主语是He,be动词应用was。故填was offered。
6.答案:achieving
考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,空处在句中作非谓语动词,achieve与逻辑主语He之间是主动关系,所以空处应用动词-ing形式,作状语。故填achieving。
7.答案:the
考查冠词。根据语意以及常识可知,此处特指光散射领域,所以空处应用定冠词the表示特指。故填the。
8.答案:when
考查时间状语从句。根据语意可知,此处表达“当光穿过透明物质时”,空处应用when引导时间状语从句。故填when。
9.答案:known
考查固定短语。be known as意为“作为……而出名”,为固定短语。故填known。
10.答案:to analyse
考查非谓语动词。be useful to do sth表示“对做某事有用处”,所以空处应用动词不定式形式。故填to analyse。
