1.where引导的定语从句

3.(2018·江苏卷)Self driving is an area________China and the rest of the world are on the same starting line.
解析: 句意为:无人驾驶是一个中国和世界上其他国家处于同一条起跑线上的领域。考查定语从句。设空处引导的是定语从句,修饰先行词an area。将先行词代入定语从句后为China and the rest of the world are on the same starting line in the area.由此可知先行词与表地点的介词in一起在定语从句中作地点状语,所以要用关系副词where。
答案: where
1.介词和关系代词的确定
介词放在关系代词之前,关系代词指人时常用whom,指物时常用which。另外,whose也可以放在介词后,即“介词+whose+名词”结构。一般来说,确定关系代词前的介词,可以从以下三方面入手:
(1)先行词的意义;
(2)从句中的动词或形容词与先行词的固定搭配;
(3)句子的意思。
Trading leather shoes is the business to which the Greens are devoted.
皮鞋生意是格林一家所致力于的事业。

他有许多朋友,但当他遇到麻烦时没有人会给他提供帮助。
3.“介词+where”引导的定语从句
有时“介词+where”可以引导定语从句,此时要和“介词+which”引导的定语从句从意思上加以区别。
His head soon appeared out of the window,from where he saw nothing but trees.
他的头很快从窗口探了出来,从那里除了树木他什么也看不到。(from where相当于from out of the window,而不是from the window)

答案: which
3.He wrote many children's books,nearly half of________were published in the 1990s.
解析: 此题的先行词是children’s books,指物,因此关系词用which。此处是“代词+介词+which”型的非限制性定语从句。

解析: 句意为:很多年轻人都去了偏远地区追求自己的梦想,他们中大部分都受过良好的教育。先行词为young people,指人,将先行词代入定语从句后为:Most of the young people were well educated,由此可见先行词在定语从句中作介词of的宾语,故答案为whom。

解析: 句意为:这就是父亲教给我的——永远面对困难并寄予最大的希望。本题考查表语从句。根据句意可知,表语从句中taught me后缺少直接宾语——“教会了我什么”,因此用what引导。
答案: what
