词汇用法:whichever引导的两类从句例举
1. 引导名词性从句
用于引导名词性从句,相当于any…that,其意为“无论哪个”“随便哪个”。
如:
You can pick whichever one you like.
你喜欢哪个就挑哪个。
Whichever of them gains the most points wins.
他们中哪一个得分最多,哪一个就赢。
Whichever of us gets home first starts cooking.
我们当中不管谁先到家,就开始做饭。
比较同义句:
Whichever team gains the most points wins.=Any team that gains the most points wins.
whichever引导主语从句时,相义相当于any that, anyone who,通常译为“无论哪个……都”“无论谁……都”。如:
Whichever you want
is yours.
Whichever comes in
first will receive a
prize.
whichever有时还可以修饰名词或后接表示范围的of短语。如:
Whichever team
gains the most points
wins.
Whichever of them
gains the most points
wins.
注意,不要与whichever引导让步状语从句(=no matter which)时的用法相混淆。如:
Whichever side
wins, I shall be
happy.
Whichever he
chooses, he is
damned.
Whichever method
you use, the result is much the
same.
2. 引导让步状语从句
用于引导让步状语从句时,相当于no matter which,其意为“无论哪个”“不管哪个”。
如:
Whichever you choose, the others will be offended.
无论你选哪个,都会冒犯其余的人(英语语法)。
Whichever you buy, there is a six-month guarantee.
不管买哪个都有6个月的保用期。
You get the same result, whichever way you do it.
不管你用哪种方法做,结果都一样。
比较同义句:
It takes three hours, whichever route you take.=It takes three hours, no matter which route you take.
不论走哪条路都要3小时。
