Which sentence is an example of: a a subject clause, or a noun clause that acts as the subject of the sentence b an object clause, or a noun clause that acts as the object of the sentence c a predicative clause, or a noun clause that acts as the predicative of the sentence b a & c a & c b 在复合句中起名词作用的从句叫作名词性从句。 根据它在句中不同的语法功能，名词性从句可分为主语从句、表语从句、宾语从句和同位语从句。 常见的引导名词性从句的引导词有what, who, which, when, where, why, how, that, whether, if等。 名词性从句 一、主语从句 用作主语的从句叫做主语从句。 1) 由that引导的主语从句： eg That we shall be late is certain. 2) 由连接代(副)词引导的主语从句： eg How the prisoner escaped is a complete mystery. 3) 由关系代词what或whatever引导的主语从句： eg What she did is not yet known. 有时可用形式主语it代替主语从句，即将it放在句首，将主语从句放在句末，以免句子头重脚轻。如： a. it + be +形容词+ that从句 It is natural that they should have different views. b. it + be +名词+ that从句 It is a pity that he can’t swim. c. it +动词+宾语+ that从句 It struck me that we ought to make a new plan. d. it +动词被动式结构+ that从句 It is said that there has been an earthquake in India. that引导主语从句时，在句中无实际意义，不充当句子成分，只起连接作用。当它引导的主语从句置于句首时，that不能省略。如： That she is still alive is a great relief. if不可引导位于句首的主语从句，只可用whether；如果用it作形式主语，而将主语从句置于句尾时，则可以用if引导。如： Whether Tom will come remains unknown. It remains unknown whether / if Tom will come. 后缀 例词 er / or(人或物) writer作家 cooker炊具 tractor拖拉机 actor演员 (r)ess (女性) actress女演员 waitress女服务员 hostess女主人 ism (主义， ……教) communism 共产主义 socialism 社会主义 Buddhism 佛教 后缀 例词 ist (主义者，……家) communist 共产主义者 dentist 牙科专家 physicist 物理学家 ment (行为，结果， 状态，性质) argument争论 government 政府 development发展 ship (关系，身份) friendship友谊 hardship艰难 citizenship公民身份 后缀 例词 hood (身份， 性质，时代) childhood童年 boyhood少儿时代 knighthood 骑士身份 ity (状态，性质) equality 平等 similarity 相似之处 ure ( ... ...
