新概念英语第三册语法详解和总结(带习题)

王牌要点:通常由that或疑问词导出。
1. How some mammals came to live in the sea is not know.〔主语从句〕2. The attorney told his client that they had little chance of winning the case.〔宾语从句〕3. The problem is what we'll do next.〔表语从句〕4. We have no idea that he has come back.〔同位语从句〕同位语〔Appositive〕:同位语是英语语法的重点内容,也是各类考试中的一个考点,同时,在写作中正确运用同位语可以使你的句型更加简洁得体。
新概念英语? 第三册第一课有这样一个句子:When reports came into London zoo that a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London, they were not taken seriously.45英里在这里,a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London就是同位语从句,它本来应该放在“reports〞后面,这里却被放在了谓语成分came into London zoo的后面,目的是让句型显得更为稳重。
I.简单记忆:同位语从句,就是对某些名词做进一步的解释的句子。
I was greatly shocked when I heard the news that his father died yesterday.〔that 引导的句子解释了news的内容,注意:that不做任何成分〕We have to face the fact that the weather is unexpectedly bad.〔that 引导的句子解释了fact的内容〕II.联想记忆:[大声朗读三遍,背下即可。

The big clock which used to strike the hours day and night was damaged many years ago and has been silent ever since.One night, however, our vicar woke up with a start: the clock was striking the hours! Looking at his watch, he saw that it was one o'clock, but the bell struck thirteen times before it stopped. Armed with a torch, the vicar went up into the clock tower to see what was going on. In the torchlight, he caught sight of a figure whom he immediately recognized as Bill Wilkins, our local grocer.'Whatever are you doing up here Bill ?' asked the vicar in surprise.' I'm trying to repair the bell,' answered Bill.' I've been coming up here night after night for weeks now. You see, I was hoping to give you a surprise.''You certainly did give me a surprise!' said the vicar. 'You've probably woken up everyone in the village as well. Still, I'm glad the bell is working again.''That's the trouble, vicar,' answered Bill.

The hunt for the puma began in asmall village where a woman pickingblackberries saw 'a large cat' only fiveyards away from her. It immediately ranaway when she saw it, and expertsconfirmed that a puma will not attack a human being unless it is cornered. Thesearch proved difficult, for the puma was often observed at one place in themorning and at another place twenty miles away in the evening. Wherever itwent, it left behind it a trail of dead deer and small animals like rabbits. Pawprints were seen in a number of places and puma fur was found clinging tobushes. Several people complained of 'cat-like noises' at night and a businessman on a fishing trip saw the puma up a tree. The experts were now fullyconvinced that the animal was a puma, but where had it come from? As nopumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country, this one musthave been in the possession of a private collector and somehow managed toescape. The hunt went on for several weeks, but the puma was not caught. It isdisturbing to think that a dangerous wild animal is still at large in the quietcountryside.
