主语从句例句及翻译
主语从句,即在复合句中充当主语成分的句子。
That he finished writing the composition in such a short time surprised us.
他在很短的时间内写完作文让我们很惊讶。
主语:he finished writing the composition in such a short time
谓语:surprised
宾语:us
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
主语从句常用it作形式主语,一般常用句型为:It is+{名词/形容词/过去分词}+主语从句例如:
It is still a question whether she will come or not.
It is strange that you should like him.
It is still unknown which team will win the match.

从句做主语例子
可以的。只不过应该使用动词的doing形式(也就是现在分词)或是动词不定式。
举例说明:
He emphatically says no, adding that helping young people succeed as entrepreneurs through the council is his passion.
他对此予以断然否定,并补充说,通过理事会帮助年轻人创业成功是他的热情使然。
分析:这个句子that引导了宾语从句。引导词是that;helping做宾语从句的主语。
He tells us that being is more important than doing.
他告诉我们,“所是”比“所为”更加重要。
分析:这里that引导了宾语从句,being动名词做宾语从句的主语。
主语从句的用法
主语从句可以按其引导词的不同分为三类:
第一类,用从属连词that引导的主语从句,例如:
That we shall be late is certain.
That the driver could not control his car was obvious.
这种结构主要是对that从句的内容进行强调,属正式文体,连词that不可以省略;但是在一般情况下,往往使用先行it结构,即用it作形式主语,而把that从句放到后面,这时,在口语中,连词that有时则可以省略。所以上述两句可以改为:
It is certain that we shall be late.
It was obvious that the driver could not control his car.
如果整个句子是疑问形式,就只能用先行it结构,例如:
Is it true that he would take the risk?
Is it possible that they will come tomorrow?
常使用先行it结构,用that从句作主语的句子有下列几个句型:
1、It + be + 形容词 + that从句:
It is clear that he was telling the truth.
It’s probable that we’ll be a little late.
2、It + be + 名词词组 + that从句:
It’s a pity that you can’t go with us.
3、It + 及物动词 + 宾语 + that从句:
It worried her a bit that her hair was turning grey.
It shocked me that Peter didn’t tell anybody where he was.
4、It + be + 过去分词 + that从句:
It is said that he has been there many times.
5、It + seem/happen/appear等不及物动词 + that从句:
It seems that he has lost something.
注意:
在上述第1和第2两种句型中,that从句前置与使用先行it,that从句后置在意义上没有什么差异;但使用先行it结构较为常见。
在第3种句型中,that从句前置在语法上是可能的,但实际上并不常见,通常总是使用先行it结构 .
第4种句型实质上是被动结构,由于that从句不可以位于句首作被动句的主语,所以只能使用先行it结构。
第5种句型已经形成了固定的搭配关系,that从句不能前置,只能使用先行it结构,不过,这种结构可以转换为带有不定式的简单句,例如:
It happened that I had no money with me that day.
→ I happened to have no money with me that day.
第二类,用连接代词who、whose、which、what,连接副词when、where、how、why,以及连词whether(或if)引导的主语从句,例如:
Who was responsible for the accident is not yet clear.
→ It is not yet clear who was responsible for the accident.
What he did is not yet known.
→ It is not yet known what he did.
Whether it is true remains a problem.
→ It remains a problem whether / if it is true.
从以上例句可以看出,这类主语从句可以直接放在句首作主语,也可以使用先行it结构,把主语从句放在后面,两种结构可以互换,意义上无差异,但用if 引导主语从句时,只能采取先行it结构,也就是说if不可以引导置于句首的主语从句。
第三类,用what、whatever、where、wherever、whoever、whichever等代词引导的主语从句,例如:
What he said at the meeting encouraged everyone.
Whoever fails to see this will make a big blunder.
这类从句一般相当于带有定语从句所修饰的名词词组,即在结构上相当于一个名词加上一个定语从句,例如:
What he wants to buy is a ten-speed bicycle.
→ The thing that he wants to buy is a ten-speed bicycle.
Whoever breaks the law is sure to be punished.
→ Anyone who breaks the law is sure to be punished.
切记,这类主语从句不可以使用先行it结构。
上述第二类主语从句与第三类主语从句尽管在形式上十分相似,但实际上是不同的。第二类结构中用连接代/副词引导的从句系由特殊疑问句转化而来,以whether/if引导的从句系由一般疑问句转化而来,自然含有疑问的意味,例如:
When they will have the sports meet is still a question.
→ When will they have the sports meet?
Who he is doesn’t concern me.
→ Who is he?
Whether he will join us won’t make too much difference.
→ Will he join us?
而第三类结构中的主语从句则没有疑问的意味。
试比较下列各句:
① What caused the accident is a complete mystery.
② What caused the accident was a broken bottle.
③ What she looks like doesn’t matter.
④ What she’d like is a digital watch.
上述各句中尽管都有一个以what引导的主语从句,但其意义不尽相同;第①和③句中的主语从句系由“What caused the accident?”和“What does she look like?”转化而来,所以可以改成:
It is a complete mystery what caused the accident.
It doesn’t matter what she looks like.
第②④句中的主语从句含义分别为“The thing that caused the accident”和“The thing which she’d like”,所以不含疑问意味,因此不可以说:
It was a broken bottle what caused the accident.
It is a digital watch what she’d like.
但是可以说:
It was a broken bottle that caused the accident.
It is a digital watch that she’d like.
不过,这已不是主语从句,而是强调结构了。
