Grammar
The Relative Clause
在复合句中,修饰某一名词或代词,或整个主句叫做定语从句。被定语从句修饰的名词或代词叫做先行词。
引导定语从句的关系代词有who, whom, whose, which, that, as。关系副词有when, where, why。关系代词和关系副词既联系定语从句和它的先行词,同时又充当定语从句中的一个成分(主语、宾语、介词宾语、定语、状语或表语)。
1. 关系代词的用法
1) who指人,是主格,在定语从句中作主语。
eg. The man who wears a pair of glasses is our teacher.
2) whom指人,是宾格,在定语从句中作宾语,往往被省略,常用who代替whom.
eg. Where is the man (whom / who) I saw this morning
如果关系代词whom作定语从句中介词的宾语,而这个介词又放在它的前面时就不能用who 代替。
eg. The comrade whom / who you spoke to is a model worker.
The comrade to whom you spoke is a model.
3) whose多指人,也可指物。指物时可与of which互换使用。Whose是所有格,在定语从句中作定语。
eg. Girls whose hair is long please stand up.
He mentioned a book whose author I can’t remember now.
= the author of which
4) which指物,在定语从句中可作主语或宾语。作宾语时可省略。
eg. This is the book (which / that) I bought yesterday.
关系代词whom, which在定语从句中作介词的宾语时,介词一般放在关系代词之前,也有时放在定语从句后面。
eg. Nearby were two canoes in which they had come to the island.
= which they had come to the island in
但whom或which如果在定语从句中作含有介词的短语动词的宾语时,介词不能前置,须放在动词之后,尽量靠近动词本身。
eg. This is the key which you are looking for.
The baby whom he is looking after is his sister.
在定语从句中作介词的宾语的关系代词whom, which在被省略的情况下,介词不能前置。
eg. I have the book you are talking about.
5) that指物或指人,在定语从句中可作主语或宾语,还可用作表语,作宾语或表语时可以被省略。
eg. He is not the man (that) he used to be.
表语
that 在定语从句中作介词的宾语时,介词不能前置。
C.f. The house in which we live is not large.
The house which we live in is not large.
The house that we live in is not large.
The house we live in is not large.
that指物时,一般都可以和which互换使用,但在下列情况下一般用that 而不用which。
ⅰ)先行词为all, everything, nothing, something, anything, little, much, none 等不定代词时。
eg. I am interested in all (that) you have told me.
= what
ⅱ)先行词被all, every, no, some, any, little, much, few修饰时。
eg. I’ve read all the books (that) you gave me.
ⅲ)先行词被序数词或形容词最高级修饰时。
eg. This is the first composition (that) he has written in English.
This is the best novel (that) I have ever read.
ⅳ)先行词被the only, the very, the last修饰时。
eg. This is the very book (that) I want to find.
That white flower is the only one (that) I really like.
ⅴ)当有两个或两个以上分别表示人和物的先行词时,这个定语从句要用that而不用who (whom)和which引导。
eg. They talked about the factories and workers that they had visited.
ⅵ)当主句是以who或which开头的特殊问句时,定语从句要用that引导。
eg. Who is the person that is standing at the gate
Which is the bike that you lost
vii)关系代词作表语时。
He is not the man that he was.
定语从句的关系代词指人时不宜that而宜用who的情况。
ⅰ)先行词为one, ones, those, 或anyone ,someone, no one登泛指人的不定代词时。
eg. Anyone who wants to go to college must study hard.
Those who have been to Europe shouldn’t be given another chance.
ⅱ)表示人的先行词有较长的后置定语时。

6) as
ⅰ)用于the same…as, such…as, as…as, so…as等结构中。
eg. I live in the same city as she (lives in).
ⅱ)引导一个属于附加说明性质的定语从句,表示“正如……”,可放在主句的前面或后面,并有逗号和主句隔开。
eg. As we have seen, … 正如我们所见的,……
As is known to all, … 众所周知,……
as was expected 正如预料的那样
as we all can see 正如我们都会看到的那样
as has been already pointed out 正如已经指出的那样
2. 关系副词的用法
1) when表示时间,在定语从句中作时间状语,其先行词往往是表示时间的名词,如time, hour, morning, day, week, month, year等,可代替in / on / at which。
eg. 1949 was the year when the People’s Republic of China was founded.
= in which

Exercise: I will never forget the time ________ we spent together last summer.
time作先行词,前面如有序数词和last修饰时,引导定语从句不能用when,只能用that(可省去)。
eg. This is the last time that I shall give you a lesson.
2) where表示地点,在定语从句中作地点状语,其先行词往往是表示地点的名词,如place, table, room, spot, house, school, country等,可代替in / at which。
eg. A factory is a place where goods are made.
