常见的有以下一种情况:
在宾语从句中,当主句的时态为现在的某种时态(一般现在时、现在进行时、现
主过从过在完成时等)后面从句时态不受主句限制,可选用各种适合的时态。
例如:
Do you know when we'll have a football match?你知道我们什么时候举行足球赛
吗,
You know he has gone to Shanghai.你知道他已去上海了。
【特别关注】
1.当宾语从句表述的是客观事实、科学真理、现在的习惯动作以及格言等时,只
能用一般现在时。例如:
The teacher told us that light travels faster than sound.老师告诉我们光速比音速要
快。
2.如果主、从句表示的动作是一前一后发生的,则先前的用过去完成,在后的只
能用一般过去时态。
When he got there, the train
had left. 当他到那儿的时候,火车已经开了。 主过从过
