同位語從句講義及練習
一、理解同位語從句的含義，把握同位語從句的實質
在主從復合句中作同位語的從句稱為同位語從句。同位語從句一般用that,whether，what,which,who,when,where,why,how等詞引導，常放在fact,news,idea,truth,hope,problem,information,wish,promise,answer,evidence,report,explanation,suggestion,conclusion,等抽象名詞后面，說明該名詞的具體內容。換言之，同位語從句和所修飾的名詞在內容上為同一關系，對其內容作進一步說明。
例：Thenewsthattheyhadwonthegamesoonspreadoverthewholeschool.他們比賽獲勝的消息很快傳遍了整個學校。
析：theyhadwonthegame說明Thenews的全部內容，因此該句為同位語從句。
二、正確運用同位語從句的引導詞，準確把握同位語從句
1.如同位語從句意義完整，應用that引導同位語從句。（即that不充當任何成分，只起連接作用）
例：Thegeneralgavetheorderthatthesoldiersshouldcrosstheriveratonce.將軍下達了戰(zhàn)士們立即過河的命令。
析：thesoldiersshouldcrosstheriveratonce是theorder的全部內容，且意義完整，因此應用that引導同位語從句。
2.如同位語從句意義不完整，需增加"是否"的含義，應用whether引導同位語從句。（if不能引導同位語從句）
例：Welldiscusstheproblemwhetherthesportsmeetingwillbeheldontime.我們將討論運動會是否會如期舉行的問題。
析：thesportsmeetingwillbeheldontime意義不完整，應加"是否"的含義才能表達theproblem的全部內容，因此應用whether引導同位語從句。
3.如同位語從句意義不完整，需增加"什么時候"、"什么地點"、"什么方式"等含義，應用when,where,how等詞引導同位語從句。
例1：Ihavenoideawhenhewillbeback.
析：hewillbeback意義不完整，應加"什么時候"的含義才能表達idea的全部內容，因此應用when引導同位語從句。
例2：Ihavenoimpressionhowhewenthome,perhapsbybike.
析：hewenthome意義不完整，應加"如何"的含義才能表達impression的全部內容，因此應用how引導同位語從句。
4.當主句的謂語較短，而同位語從句較長時，同位語從句常后肢。
如：Thethoughtcametohimthatmaybetheenemyhadfledthecity.他突然想到敵人可能已經逃出城了。
三、把握同位語從句和定語從句的區(qū)別，明確同位語從句和相似從句的界限
同位語從句和定語從句相似，都放在某一名詞或代詞后面，但同位語從句不同于定語從句。同位語從句對名詞加以補充說明，是名詞全部內容的體現(xiàn)，且名詞和同位語從句的引導詞均不在從句中作成分；定語從句說明先行詞的性質與特征，與先行詞是修飾與被修飾的關系，且名詞和定語從句的引導詞均在從句中作成分。
區(qū)分時可以在先行詞與與從句之間加一個系動詞be,使之構成一個新句子，如果句子通順且符合邏輯，則為同位語從句，反之，則為定語從句。
如：Thereportthathewasgoingtoresignwasfalse.
他將辭職的傳聞是假的。
因為thereportwasthathewasgoingtoresign句意通順，所以，thathewasgoingtoresign是同位語從句。
例1：Informationhasbeenputforward____moremiddleschoolgraduateswillbeadmittedintouniversities.(NMET2001上海)
A.whileB.thatC.whenD.as
析：答案為B。moremiddleschoolgraduateswillbeadmittedintouniversities是Information的內容，且Information不在從句中作成分，所以該句為同位語從句。應將該句區(qū)別于：
Itissaidthatmoremiddleschoolgraduateswillbeadmittedintouniversities，thisistheinformation____hasbeenputforward.
A.whatB.thatC.whenD.as
析：答案為B。thathasbeenputforward為information的修飾性定語，且information在從句中作主語，所以該句為定語從句。
例2：Sheheardaterriblenoise,____broughtherheartintohermouth.(MET91)
A.itB.whichC.thisD.that
析：答案為B。分析語境含義、句子結構和句子成分可知，該句為非限制性定語從句，先行詞為aterriblenoise，且它在從句中作主語。應將該句區(qū)別于：
Icantstandtheterriblenoise____sheiscryingloudly.
A.itB.whichC.thisD.that
析：答案為D。sheiscryingloudly是theterriblenoise的內容，且theterriblenoise不在從句中作成分，所以該句為同位語從句。
