七、名词性wh-从句
1）由wh-词引导的名词从句叫做名词性wh-从句。Wh-词包括who, whom,. whose, whoever, what, whatever, which, whichever等连接代词和where, when, how, why等连接副词。Wh-从句的语法功能除了和that-从句一样外，还可充当介词宾语、宾语补语和间接宾语等，例如：
主语：How the book will sell depends on its author. 书销售如何取决于作者本人。
直接宾语：In one's own home one can do what one likes. 在自己家里能够随心所欲。
间接宾语：The club will give whoever wins a prize.
俱乐部将给得胜者设奖。
表语：My question is who will take over president of the Foundation. 我的问题是谁将接任该基金会主席职位。
宾语补足语：She will name him whatever she wants to. 她高兴给他起什么名字就取什么名字。
同位语：I have no idea when he will return.
我不知道他什么时候回来。
形容词宾语：I'm not sure why she refused their invitation. 我尚不能肯定她为什么拒绝他们的邀请。
介词宾语：That depends on where we shall go.
那取决于我们去哪儿。
2）Wh-从句作主语也常用先行词it做形式主语，而将wh-从句置于句末，例如：
It is not yet decided who will do that job.
还没决定谁做这项工作。
It remains unknown when they are going to get married. 他们何时结婚依然不明。
八、if, whether引导的名词从句
1）yes-no型疑问从句
从属连词if, whether引导的名词从句是由一般疑问句或选择疑问转化而来的，所以也分别被称为yes-no型疑问句从句和选择型疑问从句，其功能和wh-从句的功能相同，例如：主语：Whether the plan is feasible remains to be proved. 这个计划是否可行还有待证实。
宾语：Let us know whether / if you can finish the article before Friday. 请让我们知道你是否能在星期五以前把文章写完。
表语：The point is whether we should lend him the money. 问题在于我们是否应该借钱给他。
同位语：They are investigating the question whether the man is trustworthy. 他们调查他是否值得信赖。

名词性从句的解题技巧(二)
名词性从句的解题技巧（二） 安徽省蚌埠二中----朱正军 B）名词性从句缺表语： 从句缺表语比上述情况复杂一些，根据句意分析，如果需要使用连接代词的话，判断选择的 方法与上述方法相同，而表达“谁的？”这一所属关系时则用whose (如：I don’t know whose this book is.)。如： 15. I read about it in some book or other. Does it matter ____ it was? 【北京卷2006】 A. were B. what C. how D. which 16. ----Can you do me a favor? ----It depends on ____ it is. 【北京卷2006】 A. which B. whichever C. what D. whatever 17. I want to be liked and loved for _____ I am inside. 【北京卷2010】 A. who B. where C. what D. how 18. Engines are to machines ____ hearts are to animals. 【山东卷2006】 A. as B. that C. what D. which 【这是一个较为特殊的句式结构，从句是第一个are的表语。句意为“发动机对于机器而言就 如同动物的心脏。”】 答案：15. D 16. C 17. C 18. C。选择方法上文已经讲过，在此不再赘述。 如果不能使用连接代词，则根据语义选择适当的连接副词，如Please tell me who/what/where/how he is一句中的几个连接词都是正确的，具体用哪一个要看上下文。 C）名词性从句缺定语： 名词性从句缺定语如果指“谁的？”则用whose，如：I don’t know whose book this is. 如果指“什么的？”则用what或whatever，如：I don’t care what person you’d like to make friends with.或You can make friends with whatever person you like. 再如： 19. It is uncertain_____ side effect the medicine will bring about although about two thousand patients have taken it. 【浙江卷2010】 A. that B. what C. how D. whether 该题表达的是“什么样的”，所以答案为B。 如果指“哪一个？”则用which或whichever。如： 20. ____ team wins on Saturday will go through to the national championships. 【山东卷2006】 A. No matter what B. No matter which C. whatever D. whichever 【谈及星期六的比赛，当然就有了范围的限制，所以要用which或whichever，意为“哪个队”，分析一下句型结构不难看出连接词既是team的定语，whichever team又是will go through的 主语，即“一身兼两职”。同时，No matter wh+只能引导让步状语从句。】 答案：20. D。which与whichever之间语法上的区别和who与whoever whom与whomever相同，whichever可解释为any person who/any thing which。 二）如果名词性从句中不缺少上述成分，则根据句意有无疑问将连接词的选择分成两种情况：A）从句语义是确定无疑的： a) 从句表达的是“一种事实”则用that。 1. It never occurred to me ____ you could succeed in persuading him to change. 【陕西卷2010】 A. which B. what C. that D. if

专题十一名词性从句 一、定义 在复合句中起名词作用的句子叫名词性从句(Noun Clauses）。名词性从句的功能相当于名词词组, 它在复合句中能担任主语、宾语、表语、同位语、介词宾语等，因此根据它在句中不同的语法功能，名词性从句又可分别称为主语从句(the Subject Clause)、宾语从句(the Object Clause)、表语从句(the Predicative Clause)和同位语从句(the Appositive Clause)。 二、引导名词性从句的连接词 引导名词性从句的连接词可分为三类： 1. 从属连词：that, whether/if, as if 2. 连接代词：what, which, who, whom, whose 3. 连接副词：when, where, why, how 具体用法见下表：
分 有 可 略。
【考点一】考查名词性从句的引导词 在高考单项选择题中，名词性从句连词的选择往往是测试的

名词性从句引导词的用法： 1. who意为“谁”，在从句中作主语。 2. whom意为“谁”，在从句中作宾语，但在口语中常用who 代替whom。 3. whoever(=anyone who)意为“凡是……的人”，它的宾格形式是whomever （但在口语中常用whoever代替whomever）。 4. whose意为“谁的”，在从句中作定语。 5. what (=the+n.+that)意为“什么”；whatever(=anything+that)意为“凡是……的物”。what 和whatever都可在从句中作主语、表语、宾语。 6. which意为“哪一个；哪些”；whichever意为“无论哪一个都”。which 和whichever都可在从句中作主语、宾语、表语。 7. where意为“在哪儿”，在从句中作地点状语；when意为“什么时候”，在从句中作时间状语；how意为“如何”，在从句中作方式状语；why意为“为什么”,在从句中作原因状语。 8. whether意为“是否”，在从句中不充当任何语法成分;引导及物动词的宾语从句时，可与if互换；引导介词的宾语从句或引导主语、表语、同位语从句时，只用whether。

(完整版)高考英语【名词性从句】
专题十名词性从句 第一节基本知识与基本概念 【什么是名词性从句？】 顾名思义，主语从句在句子中作主语。有时本身出现在主语的位置上，也有时出于句子结构的考虑退到句子的尾部，前面用形式主语it代替。从句作主语时，谓语动词一般为单数形式。如: What I saw was beyond any verbal description. That his hair was turning grey worried him a bit. Why the company denied the contract is still unknown. When and where the government will build a city square is under discussion. It is pretty annoying that a small part of the machine is missing. It remains to be seen whether the new novel will be well received. 【宾语从句】 在句子中作宾语的从句就是宾语从句。由于这是同学们接触比较早的一种从句，应该问题不大。所以在近年的高考题中，以宾语从句的知识作为考点的题目较少。但是，宾语从句也有自己的特殊情况，如介词的宾语，形容词的宾语，宾语从句提前和并列的宾语从句等现象。如： We assumed that there would be more than 100 guests. He told the police in detail what he saw and heard. Nobody is sure what humans will look like in a million years. That will depend on whether they can get the chance. Whether I will have the time I am not sure at the moment. The conductor complained that we were not gifted in singing and that he would never come again. 【表语从句】 表语从句的最重要脸谱就是它们应该出现在系动词的后面。如： The only question left is how often the workers are paid. His idea for the coming weekend is that we go skating. 【同位语从句】 从脸谱上看，同位语从句最为麻烦。因为它们也是出现在一个名词的后面，起着解释说明的作用。
