主語(yǔ)從句中 時(shí)態(tài)問(wèn)題 比如

1、It seems that he was right.

1/這對(duì)嗎？主句是一般時(shí)，主語(yǔ)從句可以是一般過(guò)去時(shí)嗎？

2/that he was right. 可否看成是表語(yǔ)從句？

2、 It has turned out that he was right. 對(duì)

It has turned out that he is right. 錯(cuò)

第一句對(duì)，第二句錯(cuò)，是嗎？



It seems that he was right.正確無(wú)誤。其表達(dá)的意義為：目前看來(lái)他當(dāng)時(shí)是對(duì)的。

至于這個(gè)that從句是什么從句，語(yǔ)法家也有爭(zhēng)論。

第一種看法覺(jué)得that從句是表語(yǔ)從句，但這沒(méi)辦法講解it指什么。

第二種看法覺(jué)得that是主語(yǔ)從句，it是形式主語(yǔ)。但卻很難講解that從句為何不可以謂語(yǔ)句首，如：That he was right seems.

假如給seems后加個(gè)形容詞，如obvious，

It seems obvious that he was rigght. 則that從句無(wú)疑為主語(yǔ)從句。

從《劍橋語(yǔ)法》提高主語(yǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)的轉(zhuǎn)換來(lái)看，好像根據(jù)主語(yǔ)從句講解更為合理。試比較：

It is believed that he was right. （it為形式主語(yǔ)，that引導(dǎo)主語(yǔ)從句）

He is believed to have been right. （提高主語(yǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)）

It seems that he was right. it為形式主語(yǔ)，that引導(dǎo)主語(yǔ)從句

He seems to have been right. (提高主語(yǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)）

It has turned out that he was right. 對(duì)

It has turned out that he is right. 對(duì)

從句用過(guò)去時(shí)，是由于be right與目前無(wú)關(guān)。用目前時(shí)是由于be right在目前依舊有效。
