Whatever 引导名词性从句和让步状语从句

Answer 1

What可引导名词性从句

三、whatever引导让步状语从句whatever除了可引导名词性从句,也可引导让步状语从句,意

为“无论什么”,相当于no matter what,此处what不能代替whatever。当whatever引导让步状语从

句时,从句既可放主句之前,也可放主句之后;只是当whatever引导让步状语从句时,我们一般在主

从句中间加逗号,而主句放句首时中间不加逗号。如:

1. Whatever you do in the future,you must obey the rules.

无论你今后做什么,你都要遵守规则。

此句我们也可以这样说:You must obey the rules whatever you do in the future.

2. Please stay calm whatever happens.

此句我们也可以这样说:Whatever happens,you must stay calm.

无论发生什么事情,你都要保持冷静。

3. You will have our full support whatever you decide.

此句我们也可以这样说:Whatever you decide,you will have our full support.

无论你作出什么决定,你都会得到我们的全力支持。

注意:whatever 既可引导让步状语从句,又可引导名词性从句,no matter what只能引导让步

状语从句,不能引导名词性从句。在一般情况下,如果选项中既有whatever,又有no matter what

时,我们常选whatever。如:

4. ____ he does has nothing to do with me.

A. No matter what

B. Whatever

解析:答案为B。句意为“无论他做什么都跟我没有关系”。no matter what 只能引导让

从句,不能引导名词性从句。whatever既可以引导让步状语从句,也可以引导名词性从句。whatever

在句中引导主语从句,在主语从句中作宾语。

5. ____ was said here must be kept secret.

A. Whatever

B. No matter what

解析:答案为A。句意为“我们在这儿说的无论什么都必须保密”。whatever在句中引导主语从句,在主语从句中作主语。
