學(xué)習(xí)表語(yǔ)從句和賓語(yǔ)從句的五個(gè)錯(cuò)點(diǎn) 一、錯(cuò)用表語(yǔ)從句的引導(dǎo)詞 有些詞語(yǔ)意思相近,但它們有些可以引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)從句,而有些則不行,比如 whether 和 if 均可表示“是否”,但 whether 可引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)從句,而if卻不用于引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)從句。如下面一句中的 whether 就不宜改為 if: What the doctors really doubt is whether my mother will recover from the serious disease soon. 醫(yī)生們真正懷疑的是我媽媽是否能很快地從重病中恢復(fù)過(guò)來(lái)。 又如 because, since, as, for 均可表示原因,但其中的 because 可用于引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)從句,而since, as, for 則不用于引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)從句。如下面一句中的 because 就不能換成 since, as, for: From space, the earth looks blue. This is because about seventy-one percent of its surface is covered by water. 從太空看,地球是藍(lán)色的,這是因?yàn)榈厍虮砻娲蠹s71%被水覆蓋。
二、混淆表語(yǔ)從句引導(dǎo)詞的“一詞多義” 有不少引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)從句的連接代詞或連接副詞在不同的語(yǔ)境中可能有不同的含義。如: 1. what 引導(dǎo)的表語(yǔ)從句時(shí),既可表示“什么”,也可表示“……的事(物、東西、地方、人、樣子、數(shù)目)等”。如: That is what he meant. 這就是他的意思。 He is no longer what he was. 他已經(jīng)不是以前的他了。 2. who 引導(dǎo)的表語(yǔ)從句時(shí)既可表示“誰(shuí)”,也可表示“……的人”(其中的who相當(dāng)于the person who)。如: The question is who we should trust. 問(wèn)題是我們應(yīng)當(dāng)相信誰(shuí)。 You are not who I thought you were. 你不是我過(guò)去所想象的那樣了。 3. where 引導(dǎo)的表語(yǔ)從句時(shí)既可表示“哪兒”,也可表示“……的地方”(=the place where),還可表示“在……的地方”(與引導(dǎo)地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ)從句的where意思相同)。如: The problem is where you can set up your tent. 問(wèn)題是你在哪兒可以搭帳篷。 This is where you pay. 這是你付款的地方。 The coat is where you left it. 大衣還在你原來(lái)放它的地方。 4. when 引導(dǎo)的表語(yǔ)從句時(shí),既可表示“何時(shí)”,也可表示“……的時(shí)候”(=the time when)。如: What I want to know is when I will get paid. 我想知道的是什么時(shí)候可以付錢給我。 This was when I really got to know the
三、混淆 that’s because…與that’s why…的用法 that’s because…和that’s why…中的because和why引導(dǎo)的都是表語(yǔ)從句,但用法不同:that’s because…后面所接句子用于表示發(fā)生某事的原因,通常譯為“是因?yàn)?/SPAN>……”;that’s why…后面所接句子表示由于某原因所導(dǎo)致的結(jié)果,通常譯為“那就是(為什么)……的原因”。比較: He was sent to the hospital. That’s because he was ill. 他被送到醫(yī)院,因?yàn)樗×恕#ㄔ蚴?/SPAN>“生病”,結(jié)果是“被送醫(yī)院”) He was ill. That’s why he was sent to the hospital. 他病了,所以被送到醫(yī)院去了。(原因是“生病”,結(jié)果是“被送醫(yī)院”)
四、在介詞后誤用that從句作賓語(yǔ) 根據(jù)英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)法習(xí)慣,介詞后原則上不接that引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句,遇此情況可改用the fact that結(jié)構(gòu)。如: 他說(shuō)孩子父母應(yīng)對(duì)孩子逃跑一事負(fù)責(zé)。 誤:He said the parents were responsible for that the child had run away. 正:He said the parents were responsible for the fact that the child had run away. 但是,也有例外的情況,如but, except等少數(shù)表示“除……之外”的介詞,其后可以接that引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句。如: He has not changed at all except that he is no longer so talkative. 他一點(diǎn)也沒(méi)變,只是不像以前那樣愛(ài)說(shuō)話了。
五、不知道在什么情況下使用形式賓語(yǔ) 有的同學(xué)將形式賓語(yǔ)與形式主語(yǔ)混同起來(lái),認(rèn)為使用形式賓語(yǔ)僅僅是為了避免“頭重腳輕”。其實(shí),對(duì)形式賓語(yǔ)正確的理解是:當(dāng)比較復(fù)雜的賓語(yǔ)成分后面跟有賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)時(shí),通常才在賓語(yǔ)從句處使用形式賓語(yǔ)it,而將真正的賓語(yǔ)從句移至句末——也就是說(shuō),使用形式賓語(yǔ)有兩個(gè)重要前提:一是賓語(yǔ)比較復(fù)雜,二是賓語(yǔ)后面跟有賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)。如: We believe it possible that someone set the house on fire. 我們認(rèn)為有可能有人對(duì)那房子縱火。 He soon made it clear why he had asked for a conference. 他很快表明為什么要求召開會(huì)議。 They haven’t made it known where they are to hold the conference. 他們還沒(méi)宣布會(huì)議在哪里開。
