要弄懂这个问题,先要弄懂什么叫名词性从句.顾名思义,名词性从句即包含有从句且具名词作用的从句.名词性从句如何构成?
1.对于陈述句来说,只需在句首加引导词 that.比如:He is from America.是一个陈述句.在它前面加一个that,则成了that he is from America.这便得到了一个由陈述句变来的名词性从句.这个名词性从句可以做主语,宾语,表语,也可以做同位语.分别称为主语从句,宾语从句,表语从句,同位语从句.例如:
主语从句:That he is from America is known to us all.(为了避免头重脚轻,用it 做形式主语,代替That he is from America ,句子变为:It is known to us all that he is from America.)
宾语从句:I don't know that he is from America.
表语从句:The fact is that he is from America.
同位语从句:Nobody can deny the fact that he is from America.
2.对于一般疑问句来说,例如:Is he from America?将它变为名词性从句就是先将它变成陈述句,然后在句首加 whether (句尾可以加 or not)即:whether he is from America or not.
这个由 一般疑问句演变来的名词性从句也可以在句中做主语,宾语,表语,也可以做同位语.分别称为主语从句,宾语从句,表语从句,同位语从句.例如:
主语从句:Whether he is from America (or not) is unknown to us all.(为了避免头重脚轻,用it 做形式主语,代替Whether he is from America ,句子变为:It is unknown to us all whether he is from America (or not).
宾语从句:I don't know whether (宾语从句中可以用 if ) he is from America.
表语从句:The question is whether (不可以用if)he is from America.
同位语从句:I don't know the answer to the question whether he is from America.
3.那么如何将特殊疑问句变名词性从句呢?答案是:先将特殊疑问句变为陈述句,再在句首加上特殊疑问词,这样就成了.例如:How did Disneyland start?→ Disneyland started → How Disneyland started.就这样,How Disneyland started 就成了一个名词性从句.同样,这个由特殊疑问句演变来的名词性从句也可以在句中做主语,宾语,表语,也可以做同位语.分别称为主语从句,宾语从句,表语从句,同位语从句.(略例句)
它的作用也相当于一个名词,陈述一件事情:迪士尼乐园是怎样开始(起步)的.
很多时候,我们会看到将特殊疑问句变名词性从句做课文题目,段落的标题,等.
