一、宾语从句的概念

特殊疑问词引导的宾语从句

1.特殊疑问词引导的宾语从句

当宾语从句是特殊疑问句时，用疑问词作引导词。特殊疑问词引导宾语从句时，特殊疑问词不可省略，而且宾语从句要用陈述句语序。

Where will we have a meeting?

我们将在哪儿开会？

— Could you please tell me where we will have a meeting?

您能告诉我我们将在哪儿开会吗？

What should I do next?

下一步我该做什么？

— I wonder what I should do next?

我想知道下一步我该做什么？

2. 含宾语从句的复合句与简单句的相互转换

含有疑问词引导的宾语从句的主从复合句中，若主句的主语或宾语与从句的主语一致，则宾语从句可以变成“疑问词+动词不定式”的形式。

I don’t know how I should do it next.

I don’t know how to do it next.

我不知道下一步应该怎样做。

宾语从句用法

宾语从句需注意，几点事项应牢记。

一是关键引导词，不同句子词相异。

陈述句子用that；一般疑问是否（if, whether）替；

特殊问句更好办，引导还用疑问词。

二是时态常变化，主句不同从句异。主句若为现在时，从句时态应看意；主句若为过去时，从句时态向前移。

三是语序要记清，从句永保陈述序。
