疑问词引导的名词性从句
由疑问词引导的名词性从句。多作主语从句、宾语从句或表语从句, 偶尔也作同位语从句。在作这些从句时,其句型结构应该采用以下两种:
1.疑问词+主语+谓语动词+其他
2.本身是主语的疑问词+谓语动词+其他
不管采用哪种句型,其词序总是陈述的,即主语必须位于谓语动词前面。
What is hard is to do good all one’s life and never do anything bad.(主语从句)
This reminded me of what he had once told us.(宾语从句)
The problem is whether robots will be smarter than humans.(表语从句)
Scientists have not found answers to the question why there is no life on Mars.(同位语从句)
why引导定语从句
1.当先行词是表示原因的名词reason,且关系副词在从句中作原因状语时,定语从句用why引导(why只能引导限制性定语从句,在口语中why可省略)。例如:
(1)Can you tell me the reason why you are unhappy?你可以告诉我你为什么不开心吗?
(2)That's the reason (why) I'm checking it now.那就是我现在检查的原因。
2.why可以用“for which”来代替。例如:
This is the reason why (=for which) he left the country.这就是他离开国家的原因。
3.选择why还是which/that?
当先行词是表示原因的名词reason时,用关系副词why,还是which/that引导定语从句,关键要看关系词在定语从句中作何种成分。若关系词在从句中充当状语,则用why引导定语从句;若在定语从句中不作状语,而是充当主语或宾语时,则用which/that引导定语从句。例如:
(1)The reason why I'm phoning you is to invite you to a party.我打电话给你的原因是邀请你参加一场晚会。(why在从句中作状语)
(2)The reason that/which he told me yesterday is a lie.昨天他告诉我的理由是个谎言。(that/which在从句中作told的宾语)
