宾语从句的三种时态
宾语从句的三种时态有:一般现在时、过去时态、表示客观真理或事实。
1、一般现在时
主句是一般现在时,从句根据实际情况使用任何时态。
例:She says (that) she works from Ionday to Friday.
她说她从周一至周五上班。(从句是一般现在时)
She says that she will leave a message on his desk.
她说她要在他桌子上留个便条。(从句是一般将来时)
2、过去时态
主句是过去时态,从句须用过去时态的某种形式。
例:He said there were no classes yesterday afternoon.
他说昨天下午没有课。(从句是一般过去时)
He said (that) he was going to take care of the baby.
他说他会去照看这个婴儿。(从句是过去将来时)
3、表示客观真理或事实
当宾语从句表示的是一个客观真理或者事实时,即使主句是过去时,从句也用一般现在时态。例:The teacher told us(that) nothing is difficult if we put our hearts into it.
老师梁姿告诉我们世上无难事,只怕有心人。
She said that her father is twenty-eight years older than her.
她说她父亲比她大二十八岁。
He said that light travels much faster than sound.
他说光比声音传播得快。
注意:当主句的谓语动词是think或believe,宾语从句要表达否定时,要把从句的否定转移到主句上。
宾语从句是在主从复合句中充当宾语,位于及物动词、介词橡枝绝或复合谓语之后的从句,是名词性从句的一种。宾语从句主要分为三类:动词的宾语从句、介词的宾语从句和形容词的搭纤宾语从句。
