宾语从句的时态受主句的限制,
既:主句是一般现在时态,从句根据实际情况而定。
主句是一般过去时态,从句用相应的过去的时态。
例:1)She says that she is a
student.
She said that she was a student.
4)She says that she
can sing a song in English.
She said that she
could sing a song in English.
如果宾语从句说的是客观真理、自然现象或事实时,这时宾语从句要用一般现在时态。
例:The teacher said that the earth
goes round the sun.
He told me that Japan is an
island country.
Could you tell me…是用来征询对方的意见,语气委婉,并不表示过去。
例:Could you tell me when we will
visit the Histury
Museum?
例:She said: “I have been to England
before.” →She said that she had been to England before.
She asked me: “Do you like maths?” →
She asked me if I liked maths.
★注意:当从句的原句为以下句子以及what, who作主语时,语序不变:
What’s wrong? What’s the matter? What’s happening?
What happeneed?
eg: I
don’t know what’s the matter.
Can you tell me
who is over there?
宾语从句与简单句的交换。
★由连接代词和连接副词引导的宾语从句,如果宾语从句的主语和主句的主语是同一个人时,可以用“疑问词+不定式”做宾语的简单句结构。
例:I don’t know what I should do
next. → I don’t know what to do next.
He didn’t know where he
would live. → He didn’t know where to live.
宾语从句的否定:
★如主句主语是第一人称I, we,且谓语动词是think,believe, suppose, expect,guess等表心理活动的动词时,变否定要否定转移,即否定主句。否则否定看从句。
I think chicken can swim. → I don’t think chicken can swim.(我认为鸡不会游泳)
He says that Lily goes shopping. → He says that Lily doesn’t go
shopping.(他说lily没去购物)。
变反意疑问句:如主句主语是第一人称I, we,且谓语动词是think,guess,believe等表心理活动的动词时,变反意疑问句时看从句,否则看主句。
I think he is a good student, is’t he?
They want to know if he is a good student, don’t they?
值得注意的是,当这些词后接的宾语从句的否定转移到主句时,其仍属否定词,故其后的短语句式应为肯定。
e.g.I don't
believe that he can translate this book, can he?
We don’t believe
that man is killed by Jim,is he? 我认为那个人不是Jim所杀的,是不是?
