一道英语分析句子成分提the headmaster told us about the rules of the sch

the rules of the school?是宾语,介词宾语用法归纳
在通常情况下,介词必须有自己的宾语.能充当介词宾语的成分很多.如：
1.名词或代词作介词宾语.如：
He never goes out at night.他晚上从不出去.
Don’t hide behind others.不要躲在别人后面.
The town is beside the sea.城镇坐落在海边.
注意：若是人称代词用作介词宾语,要注意用宾格.如：
He got there before me.他比我先到那儿.(不能用 before I)
2.动名词(短语)作介词宾语.如：
She is quick at learning languages.她学语言学得很快.
He makes a living by teaching.他以教书为生.
In crossing the street he was run over.他在穿过马路时被汽车撞倒.
3.从句作介词宾语.如：
He was surprised at what she said.听到她说的话,他很吃惊.
He began to think about what he would do.他开始考虑他该怎么办.
注意：介词后通常不接that从句,但表示“除外”的介词except 是例外.如：
I know nothing about him except that he is from Paris.我只知道他是来自巴黎,其他的就不知道了.
另外,介词后也不接 if 从句作宾语,遇此情况可用 whether.如：
We are worried about whether he will come.我们担心他是否会来.
4.不定式(短语)作介词宾语.如(from )：
He never did anything but watch TV.除了看电视,他从不干任何事.
It had no effect except to make him angry.除惹他生气外,没产生任何效果.
注意：在通常情况下,介词后接动词应用动名词,不用不定式,但是表示“除外”的介词 except 和 but 是例外,它们的后面接动词时,通常不用动名词,而用不定式.该不定式有时带 to,有时不带 to,情形比较复杂,大致原则是：其前有do,不定式不带to；其前没有do,不定式通常带to.
另外,介词后虽然通常不直接跟不定式作宾语,但却可接“连接代词(副词)+不定式”结构.如：
I bought a book on how to repair cars.我买了一本关于如何修理汽车的书.
5.副词作介词宾语.如：
I can’t stay for long.我不能久呆.
It’s too hot in here.这里面太热了.
I looked everywhere except there.除了那儿,我到处都看过了.
副词用作介词宾语的情况并不常见,通常只限于某些表示时间和地点的副词,而且不同的副词有不同的搭配特点,如可说in here,但不能说come to here.
6.数词作介词宾语.如：
I get up at six.我6点起床(from www.***.com).
He was among the first to arrive.他是第一批到的.
7.介词短语作介词宾语.如：
Choose a book from among these.从这些书中选一本吧.
Suddenly he came out from behind the door.他突然从门后出来.
说明：通常可后接介词短语作宾语的介词有 from,till,until,since,except,instead of 等.
