高考总复习之表语宾语主语与同位语从句专练
表语从句在句子中作表语,位于主句中的连系动词之后。
[考例1] - Are you still thinking about
yesterday's game?
-Oh, that's_______ . (2003北京春季)
A. what makes me feel excited B. whatever I feel excited about
C. how I feel about it D.
when I feel excited
解析:本题全句意为:"你还在考虑昨天的比赛吗?""哦,正是这件事使我激动不已。"关键词语"still thinking about yesterday's
game"决定必然用表语从句what makes me feel excited ,表示比赛留下久久不能忘怀的印象,现在还在thinking;
B项是泛泛而指,当然不行;C和D项内容与上下文问题无关。故答案为A.
[考例2](2001上海春招)What the doctors really doubt is ______ my mother will
recover from the serious disease soon.
A. when B. how
C. whether D. why
解析:本题题意为"医生真正怀疑的是我母亲是否将会从严重的疾病中恢复"。这里是表语从句,根据题意,故答案为C.
[考例3]Perseverance is a kind of quality ,and
that's_______ it takes to do anything well.( 2002上海春季)
A. what B.
that C. which D. why
解析:本题考查表语从句中引导词的用法。What既引导表语从句又在从句中作takes的宾语,构成"It takes sth. to do sth."的句型。答案为A。
二、宾语从句的考查
宾语从句在句子中作及物动词或介词的宾语.如果主句的谓语动词是及物动词make,
find, see, hear等,则把宾语从句置于宾语补足语之后, 用it作形式宾语.另外,某些作表语的形容词, 如sure,
happy, glad, certain等之后也可以带宾语从句。
[考例4]Mr. Hall understands that_______ maths
has always been easy for him, it is not easy for the students. ( 2003安徽春季)
A. unless B.
since C. although D. when
解析:该题考查连词在宾语从句中的用法. 观察题干Mr.
Hall understands是主句,其后有that引导的宾语从句,可将该句简化为: _______ maths has always been easy for
him, it is not easy for the students.分析简化后的句子可知,
maths has always been easy for him与it is not
easy for the students之间含有转折关系,其他选项不合题干逻辑。故答案为C。
[考例5](NMET2001)A computer can only do______
you have instructed it to do.
A. how B.
after C. what D.
when
解析:这是一个宾语从句,do后面缺少宾语,what
在句中既引导宾语从句,又作do的宾语.故答案为C。
三、主语从句的考查
主语从句在复合句中作主语,它可以放在主句谓语动词之前,但为平衡句子结构也可由it作形式主语,而把主语从句放在句子的末尾。
[考例6]_______fashion differs from country to
country may reflect the cultural differences from one aspect.(2002上海春季)
A. What B.
That C. This D.
Which
解析:这是含有一个主语从句的句子。因为主语从句句意完整,只缺一个引导词,所以要选that。这句话的意思是"国与国之间的时装差异可以从一个方面反映出其文化的差异"。答案为B。
[考例7]_______ she couldn't understand
was_______ fewer and fewer students showed interest in her lessons.( 2000上海,27)
A. What; why B. That;
what C. What; because D. Why; that
解析:答案为A。主语从句she
couldn't understand缺少宾语,要用what引导。表语从句fewer and fewer students showed interest in her
lessons是一个完整的句子,要用why引导,意思是"为什么越来越少的学生对她的课感兴趣。"
四、同位语从句的考查
同位语从句一般跟在某些抽象名词后面, 用以说明名词所表示的具体内容。常跟同位语从句的名词主要有:fact, idea, news, promise, answer, belief, condition,
doubt, fear, hope, problem, proof, question, reply, report, suggestion,
thought, truth等。
[考例8(2003上海)There is a new problem involved in the popularity of
private cars _______ road conditions need________.
A. that; to be improved B.
which; to be improved
C. where; improving D.
when; improving
解析:that引导从句作problem的同位语,解释problem的具体内容.这句话的意思是"私人汽车的普及牵涉到一个新的问题,即路况需要改进"。由于problem与同位语从句被其大量的修饰成分隔开来,增加了试题的难度。答案A.

答案与简析:
1. B.where引导表语从句,在从句中作状语,表示放东西的地点.there不能引导表语从句。
2. A. what引导主语从句,作said的宾语。
3. C.whether引导主语从句,if不能引导位于句首的主语从句,A、D不合题意。
4. B.whether引导表语从句,而不用if。
5. B.同位语从句说明news的具体内容,只用that引导,不能省略.不用which引导,that只起连接作用,不作句子成分。
6. C.that引导同位语从句,说明promise的具体内容。
7. B.when引导宾语从句,表示"那时,这是个僻静的村庄"。village已有quiet修饰,不能再用how引导从句,C、D不合题意。
8. C.首先排除D ,who引导主语从句并作从句的主语,
whom不能作主语,whoever则表示"无论谁",与句意不符。
9. B. whatever引导宾语从句,在从句中作wants的宾语。用whichever引导,则表示"任何一个",与题意不符,A、D都只能作状语。
10. A. what引导主语、宾语从句,可作从句中的主语或宾语,而that引导名词性从句时在句子中不作成分。
