第一部分:核心知识梳理
一、 定语从句的概念
在复合句中,修饰某一名词或代词的从句称为定语从句。被修饰的词叫先行词,引导定语从句的词叫关系词。
二、 关系词的分类与用法
关系词 所指先行词 在从句中的作用 例句
who 人 主语、宾语 The man who is giving a speech is our principal. (主语)
whom 人 宾语 (可省略) The girl (whom) you met yesterday is my cousin. (宾语)
whose 人、物 定语 That's the artist whose works are highly praised.
which 物、事 主语、宾语 (宾语可省略) The book which lies on the table is mine. (主语)
that 人、物、事 主语、宾语 (宾语可省略) The movie (that) we saw last night was amazing. (宾语)
when 时间名词 时间状语 I'll never forget the day when I first came to this school.
where 地点名词 地点状语 This is the factory where my father works.
why reason 原因状语 That is the reason why he was late.
三、 必须用 that 的情况
先行词是不定代词时,如:all, much, anything, everything, nothing, little, none 等。
All that can be done has been done.
先行词被序数词或最高级修饰时。
This is the best film that I have ever seen.
The first thing that we should do is to make a plan.
先行词同时包含人和物时。
They talked about the schools and teachers that they remembered.
先行词被 the very, the only, the last, the same 等修饰时。
He is the only person that I can rely on.
四、 必须用 which 的情况
在非限制性定语从句中(从句用逗号与主句隔开)。
He bought me a gift, which made me very happy.
关系词前有介词时。
This is the house in which I spent my childhood.
五、 限制性定语从句 vs. 非限制性定语从句
特征 限制性定语从句 非限制性定语从句
意义 是先行词不可缺少的定语,去掉后主句意思不完整。 是对先行词的补充说明,去掉后主句意思仍清楚。
形式 不用逗号与主句隔开。 必须用逗号与主句隔开。
关系词 关系代词作宾语时可省略。可用that。 关系词不可省略。不可用that。
译法 常译为先行词的定语。 常译为并列句。
例句 I have a brother who works in Shanghai. (可能不止一个兄弟) I have a brother, who works in Shanghai. (只有一个兄弟)
第二部分:易错点与高频考点剖析
1. 关系词在从句中充当的成分
判断准则: 从句中缺什么成分,就选能充当该成分的关系词。
The house which/that he bought last year is very expensive. (从句缺宾语,用which/that/省略)
The house whose windows are broken is empty. (从句缺定语,用whose)
The house where he lived is now a museum. (从句主谓宾完整,缺地点状语,用where)
2. that vs. which
牢记“用that不用which”和“用which不用that”的几种情况。
3. as vs. which 引导的非限制性定语从句
as 引导的从句位置灵活,可置于句首、句中或句尾,常与 know, see, expect 等词连用,有“正如...那样”的含义。
As we all know, smoking is harmful to health.
He is late again, as is often the case.
which 引导的从句只能放在主句之后,指代前面整个主句或部分内容。
He passed the exam, which made his parents happy.
4. “介词 + 关系代词”结构
判断介词:依据从句中动词、形容词的固定搭配或句意。
This is the topic about which we are talking. (talk about)
I remember the day on which I first met her. (on the day)
该结构中的关系代词指人时用 whom,指物时用 which。
注意: 含有介词的动词短语(如 look for, take care of)一般不宜拆开,介词仍放在动词后。此时关系代词可用 that/who/which 或省略。
The children (who/that) she is looking after are very lovely. (√)
The children after whom she is looking are very lovely. (不自然,少用)
