2)Objective clauses with wh-questions
上一个单元我们已经学习了由that和whether, if引导的宾语从句。这个单元我们继续学习由疑问词引导的宾语从句。疑问词:疑问代词(what、whom、who、whose、which)疑问副词(when、where、why、how)。
语序:无论主句是陈述句还是疑问句,也无论主从句间是什么引导词,宾语从句一律用陈述语序,即“引导词+主语+谓语+其它”。如:Could you tell me where Wei Fang lives?
时态
1. 如果主句是一般现在时或一般将来时,宾语从句的时态不受限制,可根据实际表达的需要来确定。如:
Jenny knows the man was flying a kite at that time.

总有一天你会明白我为什么那样做。
2. 如果主句是一般过去时,宾语从句用过去时态的某种形式。如:
I thought he had gone to town that day.
我以为他那天进城去了。
3. 如果宾语从句叙述的是客观事实、自然现象或科学真理等,从句不受主句时态的限制,用一般现在时。如:
