名词性从句的解题技巧（二）安徽省蚌埠二中----朱正军B）名词性从句缺表语：从句缺表语比上述情况复杂一些，根据句意分析，如果需要使用连接代词的话，判断选择的方法与上述方法相同，而表达“谁的？”这一所属关系时则用whose (如：I don’t know whose this book is.)。
如：15. I read about it in some book or other. Does it matter ____ it was? 【北京卷2006】A. wereB. whatC. howD. which16. ----Can you do me a favor?----It depends on ____ it is. 【北京卷2006】A. whichB. whicheverC. whatD. whatever17. I want to be liked and loved for _____ I am inside. 【北京卷2010】A. whoB. whereC. whatD. how18. Engines are to machines ____ hearts are to animals. 【山东卷2006】A. asB. thatC. whatD. which【这是一个较为特殊的句式结构，从句是第一个are的表语。
句意为“发动机对于机器而言就如同动物的心脏。
”】答案：15. D 16. C 17. C 18. C。
选择方法上文已经讲过，在此不再赘述。
如果不能使用连接代词，则根据语义选择适当的连接副词，如Please tell mewho/what/where/how he is一句中的几个连接词都是正确的，具体用哪一个要看上下文。
C）名词性从句缺定语：名词性从句缺定语如果指“谁的？”则用whose，如：I don’t know whose book this is.如果指“什么的？”则用what或whatever，如：I don’t care what person you’d like to make friends with.或You can make friends with whatever person you like. 再如：19. It is uncertain_____ side effect the medicine will bring about although about two thousand patients have taken it. 【浙江卷2010】A. thatB. whatC. howD. whether该题表达的是“什么样的”，所以答案为B。
如果指“哪一个？”则用which或whichever。
如：20. ____ team wins on Saturday will go through to the national championships. 【山东卷2006】A. No matter whatB. No matter whichC. whateverD. whichever【谈及星期六的比赛，当然就有了范围的限制，所以要用which或whichever，意为“哪个队”，分析一下句型结构不难看出连接词既是team的定语，whichever team又是will go through的主语，即“一身兼两职”。
同时，No matter wh+只能引导让步状语从句。
】答案：20. D。
which与whichever之间语法上的区别和who与whoever whom与whomever相同，whichever可解释为any person who/any thing which。
二）如果名词性从句中不缺少上述成分，则根据句意有无疑问将连接词的选择分成两种情况：A）从句语义是确定无疑的：a) 从句表达的是“一种事实”则用that。
1. It never occurred to me ____ you could succeed in persuading him to change. 【陕西卷2010】A. whichB. whatC. thatD. if【主语从句。
该句是it作形式主语，真正的主语是后面的从句。
该题考查是固定句型，it + occur to sb….某人突然想到、想起……。
】2. _____ fashion differs from country to country may reflect the cultural differences from one aspect. 【上海卷2002】A. WhatB. ThatC. ThisD. Which3. Part of the reason Charles Dickens loved his own novel David Copperfield was _____ it was rather closely modeled on his own life. 【北京卷2010】A. whatB. thatC. whyD. whether 【表语从句】4. One reason for her reference for city life is____ she can have easy access to places like shops and restaurants. 【上海卷2010】A. thatB. howC. whatD. why【表语从句。
注意这种固定搭配，the reason is that……，连接词不能用because或why。
】5. We should consider the students’ request____ the school library provide more books on popular science. 【重庆卷2009】A. thatB. whenC. whichD. where 【同位语从句】6. Having checked the doors were closed and ____ all the lights were off the boy opened the door to his bedroom. 【湖南卷2007】A. whyB. thatC. whenD. where【宾语从句，作动词checked的宾语。
注意该句中的checked有两个宾语从句，一是the doors were closed，二是all the lights were off。
当动词后面接上两个或两个以上的that引导的宾语从句时，最为规范的是每个从句都带上连接词that；另一种可以接受的正确用法是只在最后的那个宾语从句前加that。
】7. I know nothing about the young lady_____ she is from Beijing. 【上海卷2000】A. exceptB. except forC. except thatD. besides 【介词宾语从句】答案：1—5 CBBAA 6—7 BC。
上述七个从句都是毫无争议、确定无疑的事实陈述。
注释：that不能省略的几种情况：① that从句作介词宾语时不能省略；②一个动词（如：例6中的checked）带上两个或两个以上的that宾语从句时要么每个that都不省略，至少最后的that不能省略。
③ that引导主语从句、表语从句、同位语从句时通常不省略。
b) 从句表达的是具体的“时间、地点、方式、原因”时，通常用连接副词when where how why。
1. ----Have you finished the book? ----No. I’ve read up to ____ the children discover the secret cave. 【全国卷II2010】A. whichB. whatC. thatD. where2. ----I prefer shutting myself in and listening to music all day on Sundays.----That’s _____ I don’t agree. You should have a more active life. 【江苏卷2010】A. whereB. howC. whenD. what3. A good friend of mine from ____ I was born showed up at my home right before I left for Beijing. 【安徽卷2009】A. howB. whomC. whenD. which4. The old lady’s hand shook frequently. She explained to her doctor____ this shaking had begunhalf a year before and ____ only because of this she had been forced to give up her job. 【重庆卷2005】A. when; howB. how; whenC. how; howD. why; why【1. D表示具体的地点；2. A表示具体的某一点，类似于地点，即“在这一点上”； 3. C具体时间；4. C具体方式。
】。
