whether/if及疑问词引导的宾语从句
1.whether/if引导的宾语从句。
(1)whether/if引导宾语从句时,意为“是否”,表示不确定的概念,常位于ask,see,say,know,find out等词或短语后面。一般情况下,两者可互换,在口语中多用if。例如:
He asked if/whether they needed some help.他问他们是否需要帮助。
(2)whether和if的区别。
①在动词不定式之前只能用whether。例如:
I can’t decide whether to stay.我不能决定是否留下。
②在固定结构“whether...or not”中,只能用 whether。例如:
I want to know whether it’s good news or not.我想知道它是否是个好消息。
③在介词后只能用whether。例如:
His father is worried about whether he may lose his job.他的父亲担心他是否会失去工作。
2.疑问词引导的宾语从句。
(1)由特殊疑问句充当宾语从句时,该从句由特殊疑问词引导,此从句要用陈述句的语序。例如:
I don’t know when the plane flies.我不知道飞机什么时候起飞。
(2)当宾语从句由连接副词或代词when,where,who,why,which,what,whose等引导时,有时可以改为由“疑问词+动词不定式”构成的不定式短语,使宾语从句转化为简单句。但前提是主句的主语与从句的主语一致或主句的宾语是从句的主语。例如:
Can you tell me how I can get to the bus stop?
→Can you tell me how to get to the bus stop?你能告诉我怎样去公交车站吗?
