如何分辨同位从句和定语从句(同位语从句和定语从句区分的一个快捷方法)(1)

9判断一个从句是不是同位语从句的主要依据:(假设法)

假设that 引导的为定语从句,看that 在从句中是否担当成份,如:he father broke his promise (that) he made last week. 定语从句 that 担当了made的宾语,即made his promise,所以本句为定语从句,否则如The father made a promise that he will buy his son a new car.同位语从句,that不担当从句的成份,所以不是定语从句,为同位语从句。

The father made a promise that he will buy his son a new car.同位语从句

The father broke his promise (that) he made last week. 定语从句

下面这些词组(名词性的)常常跟同位语从句的名词:

(只是作为辅助方法判断同位语从句,不是主要依据。)

Advice, belief, doubt, explanation, fact, fear, feeling, hope,

Idea, news, opinion, order, possibility, promise, problem, probability

Question, reply, report, suggestion, thought, truth, wish, warning

其实,同位语从句的内容即是先行词的内容的具体解释或说明,中间几乎可以划等号。定语从句是对先行词的修饰、限定,不是先行词的内容本身。这个才是它们之间本质上的区别。
