连接代词引导的宾语从句
连接代词who, whom, what, which, whomever, whoever, whatever, whichever等引导宾语从句时,可在从句中作主语,宾语,表语等。

if和whether用法比较
1)宾语从句中,直接与or not 连用时,或在“be+形容词”之后时,只能用whether。 Let me tell you whether or not you can come. I am not sure whether his answer is right. 2)作介词的宾语只能用whether I'm not interested in whether they believe in me. 3)宾语时不定式时用whether I'm just wondering whether to stay for another hour or just start off right now. 4)为了强调,将宾语从句放在句首时用whether Whether the story is true or not, I don't know yet.
I say to my sister that we must set out right now.
I wonder, “Will it rain tomorrow?” I wonder whether/if it will rain tomorrow.
