Grammar
定语从句
一、定义
在复合句中,修饰名词、代词或整个句子的从句叫作定语从句。定语从句可以分为限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句。
二、分类
1. 限制性定语从句
它是先行词在意义上不可缺少的定语,如果去掉,主句的意思就不完整或失去意义。这种从句与主句的关系十分密切,书写时不可用逗号分开。如果关系代词在限制性定语从句中作宾语,关系代词通常可以省略。
Eg: Do you know the girl who just came in
你认识那个刚刚进来的女孩吗
2.非限制性定语从句
它只是对先行词作附加补充说明,如果去掉,主句的意思仍然清楚完整。这种从句与主句的关系不是很密切,书写时往往用逗号分开。非限制性定语从句一般不用that引导。
Eg: The old woman,who lives on her own,has a cat for company.
这个老妇人一个人住,养了一只猫陪伴她。
My house,which I bought last year,has got a lovely garden.
我去年买的那栋房子有一个漂亮的花园。
三、引导词
关系词分为关系代词和关系副词,关系词替代先行词在定语从句中作主语、宾语、表语、定语或状语。关系词的选择可从两个方面入手:一是关系词在从句中所作的成分;二是先行词所指。关系词在从句中作主语、宾语、表语或定语时,用关系代词;关系词在从句中作状语时,用关系副词。先行词指人时,关系代词用who, whom, that, whose;先行词指物时,关系代词用which, that, whose。
关系词 在从句中充当的成分 先行词
关系代词 who 主语、宾语、表语 人
whom 宾语 人
which 主语、宾语、表语 物
that 主语、宾语、表语 人或物
whose 定语 人或物
as 主语、宾语 人或物
关系副词 when 状语 时间
where 状语 地点
why 状语 原因
四、定语从句的关系代词的用法
1. who,whom,whose引导的定语从句
(1) who或whom均可指代人,但who在从句中作主语或宾语,whom在从句中作宾语;两者在引导限制性定语从句时常可用that替换。作主语时,who/that不可省略;作宾语时,whom/who/that可以省略。
Eg: I’ve become good friends with several of the students in my school who/whom/that I met in the English speech contest last year.
我与好几位去年在英语演讲比赛中结识的同校同学成了好朋友。
Eg: I have many friends to whom I’m going to send post cards.
我有很多朋友,我打算给他们寄明信片。
(2) whose表所属关系,一般指人,也可指物,在从句中作定语。指物时相当于of which;指人时相当于of whom。
Eg: My eldest son,whose work takes him all over the world,is in New York at the moment.
我的大儿子现在在纽约,他的工作使他走遍了世界各地。
2. that,which引导的定语从句
(1) which指物,在从句中可以作主语、宾语、表语,作宾语时可以省略。that指人或物均可,在从句中可以作主语、宾语、表语,作宾语时可以省略。
Eg: She showed the visitors around the museum that/which had been constructed three years before.
她带着这些游客参观了那座三年前建造的博物馆。
(2) 限制性定语从句中,关系代词只用that 不用which的情况:
① 先行词为不定代词anything, nothing, something, everything, all, some, none, little, few, the one等时。
Eg: I refuse to accept the blame for something that was someone else’s fault.
我拒绝接受因别人的错误而对我进行的指责。
② 先行词是形容词最高级或序数词,或先行词前有形容词最高级或序数词修饰时。
Eg: The first place that they visited in Guilin was Elephant Trunk Hill.
他们在桂林参观的第一个地方是象鼻山。
③ 先行词被the only, the very, the last, the same, any, every, each, few, little, no, some, all等修饰时。
Eg: The only part of the meal that I really liked was the dessert.
这顿饭只有甜点是我真正爱吃的。
④ 先行词中既有表示人又有表示物的名词时。
Eg: They will never forget the things and persons that they’ve seen or heard of during their long journey.
他们将永远不会忘记在他们的长途旅行中见到或听说过的人和事。
