定语从句
一. 限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句
1. 限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句的区别。
限制性定语从句对先行词起修饰限制作用。而非限制性定语从句是对先行词起补充说明作用。非限制性定语从句中,先行词与定语从句往往有逗号隔开。非限制性定语从句相当于并列句,状语从句等。如:
I want this man ,who(=for he) can speak English.
限制性从句
He gave up the plan, which(=though it) was a very good one.
I will take this one, which(=for it)seems to be the best one.
He has two sons, who work in the same company.(He has only two sons)
He has two sons who work in the same company.(Perhaps he has more than two sons.)
二. 非限制性定语从句中关系代词和关系副词的用法。
1. 关系代词和关系副词在任何情况下都不能省略。
2. who(主语),whom(宾语), which(主语,宾语) 不能用that 代替,也不能互相替换。
3. 介词+which/whom +从句结构中,介词不能移到从句后面。
4. when,where可用于非限制性定语从句。
题组训练
That is my father, and he works in Shanghai.
That is his father,_________works in Shanghai.
I like the boy, who is very lovely.
I like the boy, ________is very lovely.
He told me a story yesterday, and I think it is very interesting. \
He told me a story yesterday,_________ I think is very interesting.
关系代词的用法
(一) 关系代词的作用和分类
1. 关系代词的作用有三个:
(1) 连接作用:关系代词引导从句,把它和主句连接起来。
(2) 替代作用:关系代词在从句中替代它前面的先行词。
(3) 成分作用:关系代词在从句中总是充当句子成分。
2.关系代词的用法分类:
用于限制性和非限制性定语从句
只用于限制性定语从句
指人
指物
既指人又指物
主格
who
which
that
宾格
whom
属格词
whose/of whom
whose/of which
whose
关系代词的用法与分类有三个依据:
(1)根据所引导的从句的限制性和非限制性。
(2)根据所替代的先行词是指人还是指物。
(3)根据它在从句中所充当的成分―――主语,宾语,表语或定语。
(二)
关系代词that和which的用法。
1.限定性定语从句中,必须用关系代词that 的情况。
(1)当先行词是不定代词all, much, little, something, everything, anything, nothing, none, the one时。Eg:
Do you have anything that you want to say for yourself?
You should hand in all that you have.
(2) 当先行词前面被the only, the very(恰恰,正好), any , few, little, no, all 等词修饰时。如:
This is the very bus that I’m waiting for.
The only thing that we can do is (to) give you some money.
(3) 当先行词是形容词最高级或先行词的前面有形容词最高级修饰时。如:
This is the best that has been used against pollution.
This is the most interesting film that I’ve ever seen.
(4) 当先行词是序数词或它前面有序数词修饰时。 如:
This train is the last that will go to Suzhou.
What is the first American film that you have seen?
(5) 当先行词既有人又有物时。如:
Do you know the things and persons that they are talking about?
(6) 当主句的主语是疑问词who或which时。如:
Which is the bike that you lost?
Who is the boy that won the gold medal?
(7) 有两个定语从句时,其中一个关系从句代词宜用 which, 另外一个宜用 that。如:
They secretly built up a small factory, which produced things that could cause pollution.
(8) 当先行词在主句中作表语, 而关系代词也在从句中作表语时。如:
Shanghai is no longer the city that it used to be.
2.定语从句中,必须用which的情况:
(1)在非限制性定语从句中,只用which,不用that 。如:
Helen was much kinder to her youngest son than to the others, which, of course, made the others envy him.
(2)当动词短语中的介词提前时, 只用which,不用that。
This is a house in which Lu Xun once lived.
注意:在一些固定搭配的动词短语中, 由于动词和介词不可分割, 因此不能把介词置于关系代词之前。 如:
This is a the pen (which/that) I’m looking for.
不可以说:This is the pen for which I’m looking.
题组训练 用关系代词that 或which 填空。
1.Is there anything_________you don’t understand about the problem?
2.The worst matter_______ I’m afraid of happened in the end.
3.All the presents_________your friends gave you on your birthday should be put away.
4.This is the very book _________ I have been looking for.
5.He was late for the opening ceremony,_________was very surprising to me.
三.关系代词who, whom 和  whose  的用法。
当先行词指人:1.在从句中作主语时,用who  ,不可省略;2.在定语从句中作宾语时,用whom/that 可以省略;3.在定语从句中作定语时,用whose  ,不可省略。如: 
She is the girl who lives next door.先行词在定语从句中作主语
That’s the girl (whom/that) I teach.先行词在定语从句中作宾语。
This is the scientist whose achievements are well-known.先行词在定语从句中作定语。
This is the house, whose window broke last night.
=This is the house,the window of which broke last night.
=this is the house, of which the window broke last night.
用关系代词Who,whom 或whose填空。
1. Luxun,_______real name was Zhou Shuren,wrote many political novels and essays.
2. The man________you met just now is my old friend.
3. The man_______is walking on the playground is my old friend.
4. A child_______parents are dead is called an orphan.
四. “介词+关系代词” 引导的定语从句。
      “介词+关系代词”引导定语从句时,关系代词只能用which指物 ,whom指人.
2. 当介词在关系代词前面时,关系代词只能用which 或whom , 且不能省略。如:
Is this the house in which Shakespeare was born?
He paid the boy $10 for washing ten windows, most of which hadn’t been cleaned for at least a year.
In the dark street, there wasn’t a single person to whom she could turn for help.
Recently I bought an ancient vase, the price of which was very reasonable.
