名词短语连接词有从属连接词that/whether/if。
连接代词what/who/which/whose/whatever/whoever/whome ver/whichever、
连接副词where/when/why/how/wherever/whenever。
1.that的用法。
(1)主语节、表语节、同位语节使用that,但不能省略。
that they are good at English is known to us all。
the problem is that we don ' t have enough money。
the report that there will be a severe storm in the northern area is false。
(2)一般来说,可以省略宾语节的诱导词that,但在以下情况下,一般不会省略that:
that子句和主句谓语动词之间有插入词时;
有多个that引导的从属子句时,可以省略第一个that,但不能经常省略其他that。(阿尔伯特爱因斯坦,美国作家)。
介词except、but、besides、in等后面,that引导的宾语是从属子句时;
when、who、what、where、why、how等诱导从句和that诱导从句是主句谓语动词的并列宾语时。
He judged that、because he was a child和he did not understand wine .
the reason lies in that she works harder than the others do。
every one knew what happened and that she was worried .
(3)that和what的差异。
That引导名词性从句时,主仆文中不负责任何句子成分,也没有任何意义。What引导名词性从句时,在主从句中都要充当一定的句子成分,what可以分解为定语从句中的“先行词关系代词”。也就是常说的“先行词+that”。
it ' s a shame that he has made such a mistake。
I will do what I can (do) to help him。
(4)同位语从句和定语从句中that的差异。
同位语子句中的连接词that只起连接作用,不负责句子中的任何句子成分。定语从句的关系代词that在句子中是宾语或主语,与先行词有修饰关系。如果文章是
同位语节,不能应用连接词that使用which。同位语一般用于解释表中具体意义的名词后面的名词的意思或内容。例如news、fact、suggestion、truth、plan、belief、doubt、possibility和idea等名词。
they expressed the hope that they would come to visit China again(同位语节)
the hope they expressed is that they would come to visit China again。(属性子句)
2.whether和if的用法。
(1)whether和if可以在目的语种中互换,但在介词宾语时,连接词一般使用whether。
it all depends on whether they will come back .
(2)紧随后跟随or not时使用whether。
I didn ' t know whether or not he had arrived in Wuhan。
(3)主语节、剽窃只能使用whether。
whether the meeting will be put off has not been decided yet .
the question is whether they have so much money。
(4)whether可以推导同位语子句来说明以前名词的内容,if则不然。
we ought to discuss carefully the question whether we can do it or not。
(5)whether经常与or一起使用,表示一个选择,if不能这样使用。Whether也可以与动词不定式一起使用,但不能使用if。
the question of whether they are male or female is
not important.☞I have not decided whether to go or not.
(6)间接宾语位于句首时或者间接宾语提前时用whether不用if。
☞Thank you,but whether I’ll be free I’m not sure at the moment.
(7)whether可引导一个让步状语从句表示"不管"、"无论",而if不能。
☞Whether he comes or not,we will begin our party on time.
3.疑问词+ever和no matter+疑问词的区别。
(1)疑问词+ever可引导名词性从句,在主从句中要充当一定的成分。
☞Whoever breaks the rule must be punished.
☞You can choose whatever you like in the shop.
(2)疑问词+ever还可引导让步状语从句。
☞Whoever breaks the rule,he must be punished.
☞Whatever you do,you must do it well.
(3)no matter+疑问词只能引导让步状语从句。
☞No matter what you do,you must put your heart into it.
☞No matter who comes late,he must be punished.
4.when和where引导的同位语从句与定语从句的区别。
when 和where前面的名词若是表示时间、地点的名词,则when和where引导的是定语从句,否则则为同位语从句。
☞They put forward the question where they could get the money.(同位语从句)
☞This is the place where the accident happened.(定语从句)
5.名词性从句中that不宜省略的几种情况
宾语从句或表语从句中that有时可以省略,但在以下情况时,that不宜省略。
(1)当动词后带有两个并列的宾语从句时,引入第二个从句的连词that不可省略。如:
The teacher told the students (that) they should hand in their homework the next day and that the homework must be signed names by their parents.
老师告诉学生他们要在第二天交上作业,并且作业必须由家长签名。
(2)当that前面有插入语时,that不宜省略。如:

(3)省略答语中,that宾语从句单独出现时,that不可省略。如:
—What did he say? 他说了什么
—That he would visit the Great Wall. (他说)他将会参观长城。
(4)当主句的状语部分位于that 宾语从句之前时,that不宜省略。如:

☞Tom promised that if he could earn as much as 500 dollars in this month, he would buy a computer for his brother. 汤姆许下诺言,如果他在这个月里能够赚到500美元,他就给他的弟弟买台电脑。

☞I will never tell anyone that you have ever been there.
我绝对不会告诉别人你曾经去过那儿。
(7)当为了强调而把that引导的主语从句位于句首时,that不可省略。如:
That they would take the risk was very clear. 他们将要冒这个险是很清楚的了。
(8)当主句中的谓语动词是固定词组时,其宾语that从句中的 that 不宜省略。如:
☞Mary has made up her mind that she will study hard for the scholarship, so she can have the chance to go abroad for further study.
玛丽下定决心努力学习以获得奖学金资格,这样她就有机会出国深造了。
(9)当that 宾语从句前有 it作其形式宾语时,that不可省略。如:

我们认为大学生至少掌握一门外语是很重要的。
(10)当引导同位语从句时,that一般不可省略,尤其当that与先行词处于分割情况时。如:
☞He heard the news that his team had won.
他听到了他的队获胜的消息。
☞There is a feeling in me that they are cheating me.
我有一种感觉他们在骗我。
(11)当that 宾语从句的主语是非谓语动词或是主语从句时,that不可省略。如:

医生说运动是最好的减肥方式。
