初中英语复合句总复习
初中英语教材中涉及到的复合句主要有:The Object Clause (宾语从句)、The Adverbial Clause (状语从句) 和 The Attributive Clause (定语从句).其它诸如主语从句、表语从句、同位语从句等形式的复合句尽管在教材中也有出现,但在中考中没有被列为重点考查范围.
一、The Object Clause (宾语从句)
宾语从句是英语中用来充当宾语的句子.带有宾语从句的那个句子叫主句.宾语从句一般由“引导词+主语+谓语+其它”构成,其语序是陈述句语序.
Note:
难点
1. 避免重复出现连接代词或连接副词;e.g. I can’t see that what is over there. (应去掉that)
2. 从句中的语序为陈述语序;e.gDo you know how old is she? (应改为:…how old she is)
3. 从句中的时态与主句时态前后呼应.She didn’t tell me when she will come. (应改为:when she would come)
三、转换:由连接代词和连接副词引导的宾语从句可用疑问代词和疑问副词+动词不定式替代,进行句型上的转换.
e.g. I’ve no idea what we’re going to do next. = I’ve no idea what to do next.
Could you tell me how I can get to the post office? = Could you tell me how to get to the post office?
难点:
宾语从句的时态
主句中谓语动词是一般现在时,从句中谓语动词的时态不受限制,可根据具体情况选用适当的时态;主句谓语动词是一般过去时,从句中也必须要用某种过去时态,以保持时态的前后呼应.特别要注意的是当宾语从句表示的是客观真理、科学原理、自然现象、名言时,则用一般现在时,不受主句时态的限制.试比较:
He says that he wants to see him as soon as possible.
He said that he wanted to see him as soon as possible.
Tom says that he is mending his car.
Tom said that he was mending his car.
The teacher told us that the earth goes round the sun.

二、状语从句是副词性从句,其句法功能是修饰谓语或整个句子等,在句中作状语,通常由从属连词引导.
Note: 1、在时间状语从句中,主句和从句之间的时态应按下列规律确定.
1) 主句一般将来时,从句用一般现在时:e.g. The boy will be a writer when he grows up.
2) 主句含有情态动词,从句用一般现在时:e.g. When the lights are red, the traffic must stop.
3) 主句为祈使句时,从句用一般现在时:e.g. Please don’t go to bed before you finish your homework.
4) 主句为一般过去时,从句也用过去时态:e.g. I liked reading when I was young.
2、 The Adverbial Clause of Condition (条件状语从句)
1) 条件状语从句通常由if或unless(=if not)引导,从句中常用一般时代替将来时,即if或unless后的句子谓语用一般现在时或一般过去时.但是,主句则通常用将来时,情态动词或祈使句.
e.g. If he doesn’t come on time, we won’t know what to know.
He must come if he is told.
Please let me know if he comes back.
I’ll go there unless it rains.
2) If 条件句的替代形式:
(1)祈使句 + and/or + 陈述句(谓语动词通常用将来时态).其中,and表示句意顺承;or表示转折,意为“否则”.
e.g. If you work hard, you’ll pass the exam easily. = Work hard, and you’ll pass the exam easily.
If you don’t work hard, you’ll fall behind others. = Work hard, or you’ll fall behind others.
(2)用介词with, without的替代形式:
e.g. If there is no water, the fish may die. = Fish may die without water.
If you help me, I’ll finish my task on time. = With your help/With the help of you, I’ll finish my task on time.

三、 The Attributive Clause (定语从句)
在复合句中修饰名词或代词的从句叫做定语从句.被定语从句修饰的名词或代词叫做先行词.定语从句必须放在先行词之后,对其先行词起限定作用.
This is Tom.
Tom gave us a talk yesterday.
This is Tom who (that) gave us a talk yesterday.
先行词 定语从句
引导定语从句的关系代词有:who, whom, whose, that, which
引导定语从句的关系副词有:where, when, why
一、 who, whom, whose引导的定语从句
1. who 在从句中作主语,不可省略,它所引导的定语从句所修饰的先行词必须是人.
e.g. This is the doctor who came her yesterday.
2. whom在从句中作宾语,它所引导的定语从句所修饰的先行词必须是人,可以省略.
e.g. The man (whom) you saw last week has left the town.

a) The man from whom I borrowed the book is Li Lei. = The man whom I borrowed the book from is Li Lei.
(前句中的whom不可省略,后句中的whom可省略)
b) The girl whom he is taking care of is ill. (take care of是固定词组)
3. whose在从句中作定语,表示所属关系,其所修饰的先行词既可是人也可是物.

二、 that, which引导的定语从句
这两个代词均指物,它们所引导的定语从句所修饰的先行词是物,通常情况下,它们可以互换.

e.g. Hero is the film that/which was directed by Zhang Yimou.
2. that, which在从句中作宾语,可以省略.
e.g. Is this the film (that/which) you talked about last week?
注意:关系代词在作介词宾语时,只能用which且不能省略.
e.g. The house in which he once lived is a meeting-room. = The house (which) he once lived in is a meeting-room.
知识拓展:
引导定语从句的关系代词that和which,在一般情况下,尽管可以互换使用,但在下列情况下,只能用that,而不用which:
1. 先行词是复合不定代词everything, anything, nothing等时.
e.g. She didn’t forget anything (that) her mother had told her to buy.
