判断从句性质方法:
1.依据从句在句中的位置特点(尤其适用于名词性从句及定语从句);
e.g. he said(v. 说) that he would come(来).
e.g. did you see the letter(n. 信) that i sent(寄) him?
2. 依据连接从句的连词使用特点(e.g. because, although, though, before, after, until/till, lest, in order that, unless, as(so) long as, in case, however)
e.g. i do it because i like(喜欢) it. 我做这件事是因为我喜欢。
3. 依据从句的句子结构特点(如引导从句的连词是否在从句中充当某个语法成分)
e.g. he said(v. 说) that he would come.
e.g. did you see the letter(n. 信) that i sent him?
e.g. he can run as fast(很快地) as i can.(as...as.../与...一样地...)
4. 从句与主句在意义上的相互关系;
e.g. i met(预见) her while(在...期间) i was at school(在学校).
e.g. you like tennis(网球), while i'd rather(宁愿) read.
