哪些從句可用作介詞賓語

介詞后接從句作賓語時，注意以下用法：

1. 接連接代詞引導的賓語從句。如：

I was rather angry at what he said. 我對他說的話相當生氣。

We had a difference of opinion over who had won. 我們在究竟是誰獲勝的問題上發生了爭執。

2. 接連接副詞引導的賓語從句。如：

It all depends on how you handle it. 這都取決于你如何處理。

I’m interested in when he did it. 我對他什么時候干了此事感興趣。

There’s a limit to how much I’m prepared to spend. 我準備花多少錢是有限度的。

The accident happened right next to where we were standing. 事故就發生在我們所站位置的旁邊。

3. 接連詞whether引導的賓語從句，但不能接if引導的賓語。如：

I worry about whether I hurt her feelings. 我為是否傷了她的感情而憂慮。

It depends on whether the letter arrives in time. 這取決于信是否來得及時。

4. 接連接that引導的賓語從句，只限于but, except等個別介詞。如：

This dress will do except that its price is a little too high. 這連衣裙還行，只是價格貴了一點。

She remembered nothing except that his hair was black. 她什么都不記得, 只記得他的頭發是黑的。

有人把習語in that（因為，由于）的用法也可歸入此類。如：

I’m lucky in that I’ve got four sisters. 我很幸運，因為我有四個姐妹。

Man is superior to the animals in that he uses language to convey his thoughts. 人高于動物是因為人能用語言表達思想。

但是，在其他情況下，介詞賓語原則上不能接that從句作賓語，遇此情況應在介詞后加上the fact，即使用“介詞+the fact that…”這樣的形式。如(www.hz123456.com)：

They were worried over the fact that you were sick. 他們為你生病發愁。

They wore gloves despite the fact that it was warm. 雖然天氣暖和，他們卻帶著手套。

He must face up to the fact that he is no longer young. 他應該勇于正視自己不再年輕這一事實。
