在考研英语所涉及的各类从句中,表语从句是考点较零散、分散的一个,很多同学将其作为复习难点。对此,北外网课(北京外国语大学网络课程)老师专门整理了表语从句在考试中出现的一系列用法,一起来学学吧。
表语从句位于主句的连系动词之后,在非正式文体中引导词that可以省略。
That’s not what I want. 那不是我要的。
One advantage of solar energy is that itwill never run out. 太阳能的一个优点是永远也不会枯竭。
What surprised me was that he spoke Englishso well. 使我感到吃惊的是他英语讲得那么好。
All I can say is that I have nothing to dowith it. 我能说的就是我与此事没有关系。

此外,表语从句还可由as if (好像)引导。如:

形容词后的that 从句
that 引导的名词性从句还可以用在一些形容词后面。这种句型一般都用人作主语,所用的形容词都是表示思想状况或感情色彩的形容词,如certain, sure, positive, afraid, convinced, anxious, disappointed,worried, glad, happy, sorry, amazed, surprised, aware, doubtful, confident等等。
He remains confident that he will win. 他仍然自信他会赢

He appeared/seemed surprised that I said “no”. 我说不,他似乎很吃惊。
