同位語(yǔ)從句與中心詞之間的邏輯語(yǔ)義聯(lián)系在結(jié)構(gòu)上的體現(xiàn)有以下兩種：

第一種是同位語(yǔ)從句可作以中心詞為主語(yǔ)，以系動(dòng)詞be為謂語(yǔ)的表語(yǔ)從句。

I agree with the old saying that absence makes the heart grow fonder.

俗話說(shuō)，離別增情意，我也同意這種說(shuō)法。

（依句意：The old saying is that absence makes the heart grow fonder.）

第二種是同位語(yǔ)從句可充當(dāng)中心詞對(duì)應(yīng)動(dòng)詞在主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)中的賓語(yǔ)從句。

The police reported that the drugs had been found appeared in the press yesterday.

昨天某媒體報(bào)道警方報(bào)告已經(jīng)找到毒品。

（依句意：The police reported that the drugs had been found.）

對(duì)于同位語(yǔ)從句的語(yǔ)法分析固然適用于大部分情況，但同位語(yǔ)從句與中心詞的句法關(guān)系并不只此兩種。對(duì)于第一種情形，如果同位語(yǔ)從句不是由that引導(dǎo)，那么中心詞與同位語(yǔ)除了可以用be動(dòng)詞連接外，二者之間亦存在用動(dòng)詞refer to連接的情形，此時(shí)同位語(yǔ)從句就變成為賓語(yǔ)從句。

Then arose the question where we were to get the machines needed.

這時(shí)就產(chǎn)生了這樣一個(gè)問(wèn)題：我們到哪兒去找所需要的機(jī)器。

（依句意：The question referred to where we were to get the machines needed.）

對(duì)于第二種情形，所列舉的例句僅涵蓋同位語(yǔ)從句可以轉(zhuǎn)化為中心詞對(duì)應(yīng)動(dòng)詞的單一賓語(yǔ)從句的情況，但這種賓語(yǔ)從句還應(yīng)包括在雙賓語(yǔ)中用作直接賓語(yǔ)的從句。

Presidents bodyguards serve as a reminder that he is no ordinary guy out for a walk.

總統(tǒng)的保鏢們使人們意識(shí)到他不是個(gè)出來(lái)散步的普通人。

（依句意： Presidents bodyguards remind people that he is no ordinary guy out for a walk.）

作為構(gòu)成同位語(yǔ)從句的必要條件，除上述情形外，同位語(yǔ)從句與中心詞之間的邏輯語(yǔ)義關(guān)系還存在以下類型：

1. 同位語(yǔ)從句可作中心詞的對(duì)應(yīng)動(dòng)詞在主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)中作謂語(yǔ)的主從復(fù)合句的主語(yǔ)從句，如appearance，occurrence。

Critics say earnings guidance supports short-term business thinking. But others say ending it could give the appearance that a company is trying to hide bad news.

批評(píng)者說(shuō)盈利預(yù)期會(huì)刺激企業(yè)短視的商業(yè)思維。但是另一些人則聲稱停止發(fā)布業(yè)績(jī)指引會(huì)使該公司看起來(lái)在企圖隱藏壞消息。

（依句意：It appears that a company is trying to hide bad news.）

Credit insurance will protect your business in the occurrence that customers fail to pay their invoices.

在出現(xiàn)有顧客未能支付采購(gòu)清單款項(xiàng)的情況下，信用保險(xiǎn)會(huì)對(duì)你的商業(yè)會(huì)起到保護(hù)作用。

（依句意：It occurs that customers fail to pay their invoices.）

2. 由保留疑問(wèn)意義的連接代詞或連接副詞引導(dǎo)的同位語(yǔ)從句，若中心詞表示一確定概念，如命令、請(qǐng)求、建議等，同位語(yǔ)從句與中心詞不能由系動(dòng)詞be直接連接，也不可直接充當(dāng)中心詞對(duì)應(yīng)動(dòng)詞的賓語(yǔ)，而要在系動(dòng)詞be與同位語(yǔ)從句之間加入一個(gè)表示“關(guān)于”意義的介詞，或者用一個(gè)不表示“什么、是否”這一疑問(wèn)概念的成分替換該連接代詞或連接副詞，使同位語(yǔ)從句轉(zhuǎn)化成中心詞對(duì)應(yīng)動(dòng)詞的賓語(yǔ)從句。

The order when we should return has not reached us.

我們什么時(shí)候返回的命令還未到。

（依句意：The order is about when we should return.或They order we should return at a certain time.）

3. 介詞賓語(yǔ)從句略去介詞最常見(jiàn)的是在形容詞后面，這就使得原名詞從句取得了超出名詞性質(zhì)的狀語(yǔ)功能，因其表示形容詞屬性的相關(guān)方面，可稱方面狀語(yǔ)從句。同位語(yǔ)從句在某些情況下就可作由中心詞對(duì)應(yīng)的形容詞作表語(yǔ)的主從復(fù)合句的方面狀語(yǔ)從句，如awareness，eagerness。

But there is a growing awareness that this is not enough.

但人們?cè)絹?lái)越意識(shí)到這還是不夠的。

（依句意：People are growingly aware that this is not enough.）

I can understand their eagerness that you should be the main speaker.

我理解他們希望你作主要發(fā)言人的殷切心情。

（依句意：They are eager that you should be the main speaker.）

4. 還有一種從句與中心詞在語(yǔ)法上不存在上述三種關(guān)系，該中心詞之前一般有一個(gè)表示全部否定的限定詞，連同后面的從句構(gòu)成一種相對(duì)固定的句式，但后面的從句同樣稱為同位語(yǔ)從句，這類句式主要有：have no diea ...，have no doubt that ...和there is no doubt that ...。

They have no idea where they should be this afternoon.

他們一點(diǎn)也不知道今天下午應(yīng)該呆在什么地方。

I have no doubt that we shall be able to do something for you.

我確信我們能幫你做些什么。

There was no doubt that he was a fine scholar.

毫無(wú)疑問(wèn)他是一位優(yōu)秀的學(xué)者。

綜上所述，同位語(yǔ)從句與中心詞的句法關(guān)系存在以上若干情況，了解二者的句法關(guān)系有助于正確區(qū)分同位語(yǔ)從句與其他類型的從句，進(jìn)而從語(yǔ)法結(jié)構(gòu)這一層面加深我們對(duì)這一名詞從句的認(rèn)知。
