Step 3 Grammar
定语从句
定语从句是由关系代词或关系副词等引导的从句,其作用是作定语修饰主句的某个名词性成分,相当于形容词。定语从句的三要素:先行词、关系词、关系词在从句中作的成分。
1.定语从句的分类
(1)限制性定语从句
对先行词起修饰和限定的作用,如果把它去掉,主句不能表达明确的含义,先行词与关系词之间不用逗号隔开。
People who take physical exercise usually live longer.
进行体育锻炼的人通常更长寿。(若把从句去掉,主句就失去了意义)
(2)非限制性定语从句
对先行词或主句起补充说明作用,如果把它去掉,主句的意义完整不受影响,常用逗号与先行词隔开。
His daughter, who is in Boston now, is coming home next week.
他的女儿现在在波士顿,下个星期回来。(若把从句去掉,主句意义仍然完整)
2.关系代词引导定语从句
定语从句中,关系代词有that,which,who,whom,whose,as。
(1)指人:who,whom
This is the stranger who helped us today.
这就是那位今天帮助过我们的陌生人。
Lily is the person with whom I am working.
莉莉是同我一起工作的人。
(2)指物:which
It was a prison from which no one escaped.
那是一座任何人都逃不出去的监狱。
Julie is good at German, French and Russian, all of which she speaks fluently.
朱莉擅长德语、法语和俄语,这些语言她都说得很流利。
[注意]常用which的情况
①关系代词前有介词时;
②先行词本身是that,those时;
③引导非限制性定语从句时。
(3)既可指人,又可指物:that,whose,as
We talked about the people and things that we remembered.我们谈论了我们记得的人和事。
The boy whose father works abroad is my roommate.爸爸在国外工作的那个男孩是我室友。
He is such a person as is respected by all of us.他是这样一个受我们所有人尊敬的人。
[注意]
(1)as引导定语从句常被译为“正如”,也可以放在固定搭配中:such...as...意为“像……一样的……”,as/so...as...意为“像……一样……”。
(2) the same as与the same that的区别:as指同类事物;that指同一事物。
She is wearing the same coat as I lost a few days ago.她身上穿的大衣和我几天前丢的一样。(同一类)
She is wearing the same coat that I lost a few days ago.她正穿着我几天前所丢失的那件大衣。(同一件)
(3)常用that的情况
①先行词是anything,everything,every,nothing,any,something,few,no,all,much,none,little,some等不定代词或被不定代词修饰时。
I've read all the books that are about this matter.
我已经阅读了所有与这件事有关的书。
Have you taken down everything that Mr Li said
你已经把李先生所说的话全部记下来了吗?
②当先行词被序数词或形容词最高级修饰时。

我们在北京参观的最后一个地方是长城。
This is the best food that I have eaten.
这是我吃过的最好吃的食物。
③当先行词被the very,the only,the same等修饰时。
This is the very dictionary that I want to buy.
这正是我想买的那种字典。
After the fire in his house, the old car is the only thing that he owned.
他的房子失火后,这辆旧车是他拥有的唯一一样东西了。
④当先行词前面有who,which等疑问代词修饰时,为了避免重复用that。
Who is the person that is standing at the gate
站在门口的那个人是谁?
⑤当先行词既有人又有物时。
Can you remember the scientist and his theory that we have learnt?你记得我们学过的那位科学家和他的理论吗?
(4)“介词+关系代词”结构
“介词+关系代词”可以引导限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句。
先行词指物时,关系代词用which;先行词指人时,关系代词用whom。
Wind power is an ancient source of energy to which we may return in the near future.
风能是一种古老的能源,在不久的将来,我们可能会重新利用它。
In her class there are 46 students, from whom I can learn a lot.
她的班上有46名学生,我可以从他们那里学很多东西。
3.关系副词引导定语从句
定语从句中,关系副词有when,where,why。
(1)when的用法
when指时间,在定语从句中作时间状语,先行词通常为表示时间的名词。
I will never forget the day when we met there.我永远不会忘记我们在那里相见的那一天。
(2)where的用法
where指地点,在定语从句中作地点状语,先行词通常为表示地点的名词。
There is a nest where the birds live.这里有一个鸟居住的巢。
[注意]关系副词where的先行词可以是一些表示抽象地点概念的名词,如case,situation,point,stage,position等。
(3)why的用法
why指原因,在定语从句中作原因状语,先行词一般为reason。
The reason why he was late was that he got up late.他迟到的原因是他起晚了。
[注意]当定语从句的先行词是the reason时,如何判断关系词用that/which还是why:分析从句是否缺少主语、宾语或表语,如果缺少,使用关系词that/which;如果不缺少,则使用关系词why。
The reason that she gave for being late was that her car broke down on the way.
她给出的迟到原因是她的车在路上抛锚了。
The reason why he was absent was that he went shopping in town that day.
他缺席的原因是那天他去城里购物了。

Italy’s cheap old homes continue to appeal to hundreds of interested buyers, among whom was Roy Patrick, a 67-year-old British who deals in antiques in Italy. Patrick bought an old school house in the mountain village of Carrega for $16,500. It’s both an adventure and a joy.
Patrick bought the property quite by accident. When told about the wonders of the village, he toured there to take a look and was instantly struck by the 1930s school building. “The house is particular and the view is unique: The way the sun goes down over the mountains, you’d say ‘wow’. It’s a fantastic wonderland,” says Patrick.
The property was offloaded by the local government to boost the populations of communities in decline. Since the purchase, he’s been visiting every two weeks and finds it has many charms. “Top of the list is the friendliness of the local residents, followed by the breathtaking views I get out of the windows looking across the valley,” he adds.
Patrick’s initial encounter with his new home was less than promising. He had to climb through a window to open up the building, which had been shut for decades and whose door was jammed, with the keys nowhere to be found.
However, a later structural disaster turned into a positive story. When an unstable chimney (烟囱) collapsed due to a heavy snow, a neighbor volunteered to climb onto his roof to make it safe. The locals are so welcoming that they are ready to help newcomers.
During the restoration needed to make the old school habitable, Patrick unexpectedly unearthed a great many treasures: dusty piles of old text books, inkwells, pupil registers and other historical items.
Patrick has some advice for those with the thought of buying a house in Carrega: There is absolutely nothing, just great views, pure air and clean surroundings. No bars, supermarkets, or restaurants. A vehicle is essential to move around. However, Carrega does spring to life in the summer when vacationers arrive to relax. “There are nights when people throw a party with loud music,” says Patrick. “Otherwise it’s just singing birds and total silence.”
1. What led to Patrick’s purchase of the old schoolhouse
A. The locals’ friendly attitude. B. Its location and rising value.
C Its uniqueness and surroundings. D. The government’s housing welfare.
2. What was the government’s intention of selling the property
A. To attract more settlers. B. To boost local tourism.
C. To preserve village traditions. D. To reform education system.
3. What’s one of Patrick’s added bonuses of getting the house
A. Acquiring more personal space. B. Digging up some historical finds.
C. Enjoying a more active social life. D. Getting free home decoration service.
4. How does it feel most of the time living in Carrega

A walk in the park may be just what the doctor ordered. A new program launched last month in Canada gives some doctors the option of providing patients with a free annual pass to the country's national parks as part of an effort to increase access to nature and the health benefits.
PaRx, a health initiative launched by the BC Parks Foundation in 2019, partnered with Parks Canada to provide doctors across four provinces with an initial run of 100 passes that can be prescribed(开处方). The program allows doctors to write more general prescriptions for time spent out in nature; two hours a week, at least 20 minutes at a time, is what PaRx director Dr. Melissa Lem suggests.
“Given the growing body of evidence that indicates nature time can improve all kinds of different physical and mental health conditions, we’re hoping that our PaRx program not only improves patient health, but reduces costs to the health-care system, and helps to grow the number of people who are more engaged environmental advocates,” said Prama Rahman, a coordinator for the BC Parks Foundation.
Doctors have been catching on, instructing their patients to turn to nature to improve their health and they're getting creative in how they do it. Dr. Robert Zarr, a doctor based in Washington, began prescribing accessible outdoor activities for his young patients and even created a searchable online database of local parks to make it easier.
But getting outside isn’t always as easy as it might sound. Income can affect one’s access to nature, an issue that PaRx is trying to address in Canada. Doctors utilizing the new national parks pass program are urged to prioritize patients who might not otherwise be able to afford these passes.
While only 100 adult passes, which give holders access to more than 80 national parks, historic sites and nature reserves, have initially been made available, organizers plan to routinely reassess this number as the program grows, the BC Parks Foundation told NPR
5. What is PaRx intended to do
A. Qualify doctors to prescribe. B. Give patients free access to parks.
C Promote free admission to parks. D. Advocate 20 minutes’ walk a day.
6. What does the underlined word “utilizing” in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Financing. B. Setting up. C. Evaluating. D. Carrying out.
7. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. The BC Parks Foundation is expanding rapidly.
B. The program has signed up 80 national parks.
C. More people will benefit from the program.
D. Those living close to parks can gain priority.
8. Which is the best title of the text
A. PaRx, a Nature Prescription Program. B. BC Parks Foundation in Canada

Gilleece. 42. didn't like the idea that a theft could have happened at his place, so he spent hours searching 16 different cameras, watching the woman’s every step until she went to sit on a bench outside and left when her ride arrived. Within minutes, a young man in a hoodie(连帽衫)approached the bench, Put something in his pocket, and walked off. Gilleece posted a clip on the bar’s Facebook page. “I didn't want to criticize him." he said. “I just asked if anybody knew who the guy was.” Within hours. Giileece got a text message from 17-year-old Rivers Prather, who admitted taking the wallet and said he'd done it because he hadn't eaten in two days. Thinking the ring was fake, he threw the wallet into the ocean and took the money to buy a sandwich.
Gilleece. unsure whether he believed Prather, told the teenager Io meet him at the docks(码头).There. they got to talking, and Prather said that he wasn't getting along with his family and had been living in the woods for a week Gilleece. a father of two. took stock of(审视)Prather- his small body, his flushing(涨得通红)checks - and saw him for what he was: more of a kid than a criminal.
Hou ever, the police were already on the ease and because of the missing ring. Prather could be facing severe charge. Gilleece decided to help. He employed two local divers to search the waters where Prather had thrown the wallet. Meanwhile, the police wanted Gilleece to bring the teen down to the station. Instead.

Italy’s cheap old homes continue to appeal to hundreds of interested buyers, among whom was Roy Patrick, a 67-year-old British who deals in antiques in Italy. Patrick bought an old school house in the mountain village of Carrega for $16,500. It’s both an adventure and a joy.
Patrick bought the property quite by accident. When told about the wonders of the village, he toured there to take a look and was instantly struck by the 1930s school building. “The house is particular and the view is unique: The way the sun goes down over the mountains, you’d say ‘wow’. It’s a fantastic wonderland,” says Patrick.
The property was offloaded by the local government to boost the populations of communities in decline. Since the purchase, he’s been visiting every two weeks and finds it has many charms. “Top of the list is the friendliness of the local residents, followed by the breathtaking views I get out of the windows looking across the valley,” he adds.
Patrick’s initial encounter with his new home was less than promising. He had to climb through a window to open up the building, which had been shut for decades and whose door was jammed, with the keys nowhere to be found.
However, a later structural disaster turned into a positive story. When an unstable chimney (烟囱) collapsed due to a heavy snow, a neighbor volunteered to climb onto his roof to make it safe. The locals are so welcoming that they are ready to help newcomers.
During the restoration needed to make the old school habitable, Patrick unexpectedly unearthed a great many treasures: dusty piles of old text books, inkwells, pupil registers and other historical items.
Patrick has some advice for those with the thought of buying a house in Carrega: There is absolutely nothing, just great views, pure air and clean surroundings. No bars, supermarkets, or restaurants. A vehicle is essential to move around. However, Carrega does spring to life in the summer when vacationers arrive to relax. “There are nights when people throw a party with loud music,” says Patrick. “Otherwise it’s just singing birds and total silence.”
1. What led to Patrick’s purchase of the old schoolhouse
A. The locals’ friendly attitude. B. Its location and rising value.
C Its uniqueness and surroundings. D. The government’s housing welfare.
2. What was the government’s intention of selling the property
A. To attract more settlers. B. To boost local tourism.
C. To preserve village traditions. D. To reform education system.
3. What’s one of Patrick’s added bonuses of getting the house
A. Acquiring more personal space. B. Digging up some historical finds.
C. Enjoying a more active social life. D. Getting free home decoration service.
4. How does it feel most of the time living in Carrega
A. Quiet. B. Lively.
C. Modern. D. Convenient.

A walk in the park may be just what the doctor ordered. A new program launched last month in Canada gives some doctors the option of providing patients with a free annual pass to the country's national parks as part of an effort to increase access to nature and the health benefits.
PaRx, a health initiative launched by the BC Parks Foundation in 2019, partnered with Parks Canada to provide doctors across four provinces with an initial run of 100 passes that can be prescribed(开处方). The program allows doctors to write more general prescriptions for time spent out in nature; two hours a week, at least 20 minutes at a time, is what PaRx director Dr. Melissa Lem suggests.
“Given the growing body of evidence that indicates nature time can improve all kinds of different physical and mental health conditions, we’re hoping that our PaRx program not only improves patient health, but reduces costs to the health-care system, and helps to grow the number of people who are more engaged environmental advocates,” said Prama Rahman, a coordinator for the BC Parks Foundation.
Doctors have been catching on, instructing their patients to turn to nature to improve their health and they're getting creative in how they do it. Dr. Robert Zarr, a doctor based in Washington, began prescribing accessible outdoor activities for his young patients and even created a searchable online database of local parks to make it easier.
But getting outside isn’t always as easy as it might sound. Income can affect one’s access to nature, an issue that PaRx is trying to address in Canada. Doctors utilizing the new national parks pass program are urged to prioritize patients who might not otherwise be able to afford these passes.
While only 100 adult passes, which give holders access to more than 80 national parks, historic sites and nature reserves, have initially been made available, organizers plan to routinely reassess this number as the program grows, the BC Parks Foundation told NPR
5. What is PaRx intended to do
A. Qualify doctors to prescribe. B. Give patients free access to parks.
C Promote free admission to parks. D. Advocate 20 minutes’ walk a day.
6. What does the underlined word “utilizing” in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Financing. B. Setting up. C. Evaluating. D. Carrying out.
7. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. The BC Parks Foundation is expanding rapidly.
B. The program has signed up 80 national parks.
C. More people will benefit from the program.
D. Those living close to parks can gain priority.
8. Which is the best title of the text
A. PaRx, a Nature Prescription Program. B. BC Parks Foundation in Canada
C. Year-long Passes to National Parks D. A New Study on Benefits of Walk
