雅思阅读必考内容,名词性从句分析!

了解雅思的人都知道,雅思阅读考试中有很多长句,而考生如果语法方面有任何一点差错,或者不擅长于长句短读(迅速找出一个长句的主句即主谓宾/主系表),都会在雅思阅读考试中失利。因此考生们在备考的过程中,对于英语中的从句必须要有很好的掌握,而雅思阅读考试中出现频率最高的从句之一就是名词性从句。


在句子中起名词作用的句子叫名词性从句 (noun clauses)
名词性从句的功能相当于名词词组,它在复合句中能担任主语、宾语、表语、同位语、介词宾语等,因此根据它在句中不同的语法功能,名词性从句又可分别称为主
语从句、宾语从句、表语从句、同位语从句、介词宾语从句等。下面雅思中国网专家就给考生们介绍一下这几个名词性从句及其在雅思阅读中的应用。


1.主语从句

在复合句中用作主语的从句称为主语从句 (subject clause)。引导主语从句的关联词有从属连词、疑问代词、疑问副词、缩合连接代词、缩合连接副词等。如:

有时可以用it作为形式主语,将真实主语从句置于句末。如:

1. It is probable that the nocturnal trades go way back in the ancestry of all mammals.

2. It should be no surprise then that among mathematicians and architects, left-handers tend to be more common and there are more left-handed males than females.

3. It is reported that millions of people die of water-related disease each year.

据报道每年有成千上百万人死于和水有关的疾病。


2.表语从句

在复合句中用作表语的从句称为表语从句 (predictive clause)。引导表语从句的关联词有疑问代词、疑问副词、缩合连接代词、从属连词等。如:

宾语从句也可以用作介词的宾语,如:

But the origins of what is now generally known as modern architecture can be traced back to social and technological changes of the 18th and 19th centuries.
