過去將來進行時用於賓語從句中
在複合句中用作賓語的從句叫賓語從句，在這裏，我們將從句的時態設定爲過去將來進行時時態，這既是過去將來進行時在賓語從句中的用法。過去將來進行時表示的是：就過去某一時間而言，將來某一時刻或某一段時間正在進行的動作或者持續的狀態，過去將來進行時多用於賓語從句中，引導賓語從句的連接詞主要有：連接賓語從句的從屬連詞主要有that,if,whether和特殊疑問詞（what， how， where， when等)。
that引導表示陳述句的賓語從句，if和whether，whether...or not引導表示“是否”的一般疑問句的賓語從句。例如:
1.I didn’t know if there would be a bus any more.
我不知道是否還會有公交車。
