【注意】有時(shí)介詞后可接一個(gè)賓語從句(但介詞后通常不接that和if引導(dǎo)的賓語從句)：
from what you say, he is right. 根據(jù)你所說的，他是對(duì)的。
有極個(gè)別介詞(如but, except)可接that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句：
she remembered nothing about him except that his hair was black. 她對(duì)他什么都不記得，只記得他的頭發(fā)是黑的。
比較下面兩句用what引導(dǎo)的賓語從句，它們的意思不一樣：
he began to think about what he should do. 他開始考慮應(yīng)當(dāng)怎樣做。
二、賓語從句與形式賓語it
當(dāng)賓語從句后跟有賓語補(bǔ)足語時(shí)，通常在賓語從句處使用形式賓語it，而將真正的賓語從句移至句末：
i think it best that you should stay here. 我認(rèn)為你最好住這兒。
he hasn’t made it known when he is going to get married. 他還沒宣布他何時(shí)結(jié)婚。
