因为连词的种类非常多,有并列连词(连接简单句),有从属连词(引导复杂句),而从属连词引导的从句又可分为三类:名词性从句、定语从句和状语从句。尤其应注意的是有些连词可引导不止一种从句,具有多重功能,这往往是学习的难点,也是易混点。

难点回顾:

1 as可引导多种从句,如时间状语从句、原因状语从句、让步状语从句、方式状语从句、比较状语从句以及定语从句。

[误] Which you can see,he is always ready to help others.

[正] As you can see,he is always ready to help others.

[析]as引导非限制性定语从句,当"正像"讲。

[误] Do like I told you.

[正] Do as I told you.

[析]like是介词; as是连词,在这里作"按照"讲,引导方式状语从句。

[误] He was reading then he was walking.

[正] He was reading as he was walking.

[析]as强调两个动作同时进行,作"一边……一边……"讲。

[误] As he is young,he knows a lot.

[正] Young as he is,he knows a lot.

[析]as引导的让步状语从句应用倒装语序,应把表语提前。

2.that可引导多种从句,如定语从句、名词性从句、状语从句等。

[误] You don’t like him is none of my business.

[正] That you don’t like him is none of my business.

[析]that引导主语从句,本身无实际意义,但不能省略。

[误] The thief handed everything which he had stolen to the police.

[正] The thief handed everything that he had stolen to the police.

[析]everything是不定代词,因此后面的定语从句只能由that引导。

[误] I am happy as you passed the exam.

[正] I am happy that you passed the exam.

[析]that在形容词后面引导宾语从句,不能用as。

3.where可引导多种从句,如定语从句、状语从句以及名词性从句。

[误] Go to find your watch. It’s there where you left it.

[正] Go to find your watch. It’s where you left it.

[析]where引导表语从句,相当于at the place where。

[误] The place where there is water,there is life.

[正] Where there is water,there is life.

[析]where引导地点状语从句,可以放在主句的前面,也可以放在主句的后面。

[误] I can’t remember in which place I met him.

[正] I can’t remember where I met him.

[析]where引导宾语从句,不能用in which。

4.what可引导感叹句、特殊疑问句、名词性从句等。

[误] How an interesting story he told us!

[正] What an interesting story he told us!

[析]What an interesting story!=How interesting a story!

[误] I can’t remember the thing what he told me.

[正] I can’t remember what he told me.

[析]what引导宾语从句,相当于the thing that。

5 no matter+what/who...与whatever/whoever...的区别:前者只能引导让步状语从句,而后者既可引导让步状语从句,也可引导名词性从句。

[误] I will make friends with no matter who shares my interest.

[正] I will make friends with whoever shares my interest.

[析]引导名词性从句时只能用whoever。

[误] You must hand in no matter what you’ve found.

[正] You must hand in whatever you’ve found.

[析] 引导名词性从句时只能用whatever。

6.whether和if的区别:两者引导名词性从句时都是从属连词,作"是否"讲,本身不作成分,此时句子中往往出现表示"不肯定"意义的一些短语,如not sure/certain,not known/decided,...is still question,depend on等。

whether 和if 引导动词后的宾语从句时可互换,但下列情况一般只能用whether:

(1) 引导介词后的宾语从句;(2)引导主语从句; (3) 引导表语从句;(4)引导同位语从句;(5)后面出现or not。

[误] If you can pass the exam depends on how hard you work.

[正] Whether you can pass the exam depends on how hard you work.

[析]引导主语从句只能用whether。

7.while,when,as 引导时间状语从句时的区别:

while只能表示"在一段时间或过程中",即只能表示时间的"一段",后面一般用进行时或表示状态的结构;

when常与一般时态连用,用于表示一个动作与另一个动作在同一时间发生,或一个动作在另一动作所延续的时间范围内发生。可以表示一段时间,也可表示时间的"一点";

When it is wet the buses are crowded.

天下雨时公共汽车就很拥挤。

When she pressde the button the lift stopped.

她按了按键,电梯停住了。

as引导时间状语从句时,表示两个动作同时进行,作"一边……一边……"讲。还可表示第二个动作发生在第一个动作结束之前。

[误] I picked up some French words as I was having a holiday in Paris.

[正] I picked up some French words while I was having a holiday in Paris.

[析]while强调在……过程中;as说明两个动作同时进行。

[误] We were having classes while someone knocked at the door.

[正] We were having classes when someone knocked at the door.

[析]when可表示时间的"一点",而while不能。

8.because,as,since(now that)引导原因状语从句时的区别:

because引导原因状语从句时,表示直接的原因,可以回答why的提问;as只能是一种"附加的"理由,不能回答why的提问;since(now that)多表示双方都已很清楚的事实,作"既然"讲。

[误] Because we’ve finished most of the work,let’s have a rest.

[正] Since(Now that) we’ve finished most of the work,let’s have a rest.

[析]表示大家都清楚的理由用since(now that)。

9.however和as 引导让步状语从句时的区别:

however引导让步状语从句时,相当于no matter how,后面跟形容词或副词;as引导让步状语从句时,用倒装语序,即把作状语的副词或作表语的形容词或名词提前,而且如果作表语的是单数名词,前面不加冠词,也可以把谓语动词部分的实义动词提前。

[误] As hard he works,he can’t catch up with his classmates.

[正] However hard he works,he can’t catch up with his classmates.

[析]见上述说明。

[误] A model worker he is,he remains modest.

[正] Model worker as he is,he remains modest.

[析]as 引导让步状语从句,前面的单数名词前不加冠词。
