Binbin: Hi, Ella. Thanks for having me! For learning English, I
think first you need to become an active learner.

Binbin: Well, because I want to speak English well, I practise
English all the time.
Ella: Oh, you must spend a lot of time studying!
Binbin: Well, it doesn't mean you have to study all the time.
You need to spend time using the language. For
example, I speak English with friends. I repeat the
dialogues from the films I like. I read English books,
and sometimes I write my diary in English.
Ella: Wow! I guess you really enjoy learning.
Binbin: Yes, it's true! But you see, I started out at zero and
came across problems. I mean, you just have to take
things step by step. Start simple and build up.

什么是宾语从句?
当一个完整的句子(包含主语和谓语)充当另一个句子的宾语时,这个句子就叫做宾语从句。它通常跟在及物动词(如think, believe, know, wonder, find)或介词后面。其作用是使表达的内容更丰富、更完整。例如:I know that you’re right.
宾语从句的连接: that, if, whether
引导宾语从句的that, if, whether都称为从属连词。它们的功能是将后面的从句与主句的动词联系起来。
从属连词that
用于引导一个陈述句作为宾语从句,它只起纯粹的连接作用,没有实际词义。在口语和非正式文体中,如果宾语从句是完整的陈述句,连接词 that 通常可以省略,句子意思不变。例如:
She says (that) she will join the English club.
He finds (that) reading aloud helps a lot.
宾语从句的时态?
宾语从句如果主句是现在的时态(包括一般现在时、现在进行时、现在完成时),从句的时态可根据实际情况而定。例如:
I know he lives here.
I know he lived here ten years ago.
I have heard that he will come.
如果主句是过去的时态(包括一般过去时、过去进行时),那么从句的时态一定要用过去的时态(包括一般过去时、过去进行时、过去将来时、过去完成时)。
I knew who lived here.
Our teacher asked us if everybody was here.
He said that he had seen it.
宾语从句的语序
陈述句变为宾语从句时语序不变。
He is an honest man.—I said (that) he was an honest man.
We’ll win.— We believe we’ll win.
一般疑问句变为宾语从句时,语序要变为陈述句语序,用if/whether连接宾语从句。
Does he study hard?—I wonder if/whether he studies hard.
Will they win?—I asked if/whether they would win.
特殊疑问句变为宾语从句时,语序要变为陈述句语序,用连接代词或连接副词(即保留原来的疑问词)连接宾语从句。
Who is he?— Do you know who he is?
What does he want?— I don’t know what he wants.
Where will he arrive?— He asked me where he would arrive.
Why won’t you spend the holiday with your parents?— She wants to know why I won’t spend the holiday with my parents.
