在復(fù)合句中用作賓語(yǔ)的從句叫賓語(yǔ)從句，在這里，我們將從句的時(shí)態(tài)設(shè)定為過(guò)去將來(lái)進(jìn)行時(shí)時(shí)態(tài)，這既是過(guò)去將來(lái)進(jìn)行時(shí)在賓語(yǔ)從句中的用法。過(guò)去將來(lái)進(jìn)行時(shí)表示的是：就過(guò)去某一時(shí)間而言，將來(lái)某一時(shí)刻或某一段時(shí)間正在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作或者持續(xù)的狀態(tài)，過(guò)去將來(lái)進(jìn)行時(shí)多用于賓語(yǔ)從句中，引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句的連接詞主要有：連接賓語(yǔ)從句的從屬連詞主要有that,if,whether和特殊疑問(wèn)詞（what， how， where， when等)。
that引導(dǎo)表示陳述句的賓語(yǔ)從句，if和whether，whether...or not引導(dǎo)表示“是否”的一般疑問(wèn)句的賓語(yǔ)從句。例如:
1.I didn’t know if there would be a bus any more.
