名词性从句Noun clauses 名词性从句是由 if, whether, that 和各种疑问词充当连接词所引导的从句,其作用同名词一样
包括 主语从句,宾语从句,表语从句和 同位语从句
一.主语从句 主语从句是在复合句中充当主语的从句,通常放在主句谓语动词之前或由形式主语 it 代替,而本身放在句子末尾
It 作形式主语和 it 引导强调句的比较It 作形式主语代替主语从句,主要是为了平衡句子结构,主语从句的连接词没有变化
而 it引导的强调句则是对句子某一部分进行强调,无论强调的是什么成分,都可用连词 that
被强调部分指人是也可用 who
例如: It is a pity that you didn’t go to see the film
It doesn’t interest me whether you succeed or not
It is in the morning that the murder took place
(=In the morning the murder took place
) It is John that broke the window
(=John broke the window
