which和who引导的定语从句
1.which引导的定语从句
which引导的定语从句一般修饰表示事物的先行词。如:

他正在读一本关于战争的书。(关系代词which在定语从句中充当主语)
He is reading a book which he bought from London.
他正在读一本他从伦敦买来的书。(关系代词which在定语从句中充当宾语)which和介词搭配使用,介词可放在which之前;which若是和固定词组搭
配使用,当固定词组以介词结尾时,介词一般不能放到which之前。如:
The house in which Lu Xun once lived is now Lu Xun Museum.
鲁迅曾住过的那所房子现在叫鲁迅博物馆。(which和介词搭配使用)

这就是你正在找的那本杂志。(look for是固定词组)例1????(2018山东临沂中考) My grandparents like stories ???? have happy endings.
A.they B.who C.which D./
解析????考查定语从句。句意:我爷爷奶奶喜欢有快乐结局的故事。分析句子结构可知,本句是含有定语从句的复合句,stories是先行词,表示物,应用关系代词which引导定语从句。故选C。
答案????C2.who引导的定语从句
who引导定语从句时,先行词指人。who在定语从句中作主语、宾语。关系代词在从句中作宾语时也可用whom,或者省略。如:
This is the English teacher who teaches my son.
这就是教我儿子的英语老师。
用who引导定语从句时需要注意以下四点:
(1)who引导的定语从句的先行词是表示人的名词或代词。如:
The student who is answering the question is John.
正在回答问题的那个学生是约翰。
(2)who在定语从句中作主语时不能省略。如:The person who was here yesterday is a musician.
昨天在这儿的那个人是一个音乐家。
(3)在who引导的定语从句中,谓语动词在人称和数上应和定语从句的先行词保持一致。如:
Do you know the boy who is standing over there?
你认识站在那边的那个男孩吗?
(4)若先行词中既有人又有物,关系代词用that而不用who。如:
He watched the children and boxes that filled the car.
他看着挤满了车的孩子和箱子。例2????(2018辽宁盘锦中考)A true friend is a person ???? reaches for your hand and touches your heart.
A.whom B.whose C.who D.which

答案????C
易错点????引导定语从句的关系词that和which的辨析
1.关系词只能用that的情况:

(2)先行词是all、any、everything、anything、none等不定代词时,只能用that,不能用which。

I can remember the person and some pictures that I saw in the room clear-ly.我能清楚地记得我在那个房间里见到的人和一些照片。
(5)主句是由which引导的特殊疑问句,为避免重复,定语从句只能用that。

—So it is. Many international meetings are held there every year.
A.that B.which C.what

例4???“Color,color,color!”are the words of artist Eric Carle.Eric is like the king in the world of children's books.He has written over 70 children's books.His most famous book,The Very Hungry Caterpillar,is common on children's bookshelves all over the world.What most people don't know is that Eric also makes art for adults,which is called“ArtArt”.People didn't know about it,because he didn't show it to the public until he was 84 years old!
Like Eric's children's books,his“ArtArt”is full of bright and clear color.He says that he loves color so much because he missed it during the war in Germany. Eric was born in New York in 1929,but moved to Germany with his family when he was 6.When he was 10,World War Ⅱ began.He no-ticed that all the houses and buildings in his town were painted grey,brown or dark green.It was a sad time,and it seemed like there was no color any-where.
At the end of the war,“when color came back”,Eric explains,“I just love it so much. I keep saying that I wish our eyes could see more color.Color is a very important part of my work.”
That's true.Eric paints bright colors on paper,cuts out shapes,and then glues them onto another piece of paper.This method is called collage.In fact,it is what led Eric to his “ArtArt”.
Eric's “ArtArt”includes large collages as well as paintings,photographs and even costumes.In all these works,he uses all kinds of colors—every-thing from purple to light green to orange.Now that's a lot of color!
1.When did Eric show “ArtArt”to the public?
A.In 1929. B.In 1993.

A.Because he could hardly see bright color.
B.Because he had to join the army to fight.
C.Because he couldn't draw very good paintings.
D.Because he lived a very poor life with his parents.

A.Collage plays an important part in Eric's book “ArtArt”.B.Children know little about The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
C.Eric has created more books for adults than for children.
D.Eric moved to Germany with his family when he was 10.
4.What's the main idea of this passage?
A.Eric created collages for his books.
B.Eric's “ArtArt”is popular with people.
C.Eric's love for color led him to success.
D.Eric is the king in the world of children's books.答案
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文,作者向我们介绍了艾瑞克·卡尔对颜色和艺术的理解,鼓励孩子们发挥想象力,创造自己的颜色。
1.D 推理判断题。由第二段的第三句可知艾瑞克·卡尔出生在1929年,再根据第一段的最后一句可知他在84岁才把这本书公之于众。由此可知是2013年。
2.A????推理判断题。由第二段的倒数第二句可知,他几乎看不到鲜艳的颜色,故选A项。
3.A????推理判断题。由文章倒数第二段最后两句话可知A项正确。
4.C????主旨大意题。通读全文,不难发现,艾瑞克·卡尔的书的特点就是颜色鲜亮,尤其在第三段,我们可以发现是他对颜色的爱带领他走向了成功。素养要求 “热爱是最好的老师。”爱因斯坦的这句名言道出了热爱对一个人谋事的重要作用:热爱是做好任何事情的基础。热爱能激发人的潜能,调动人的积极性和创造性,使人追求事业的完美。即便是遭遇困难和挫折,也能“衣带渐宽终不悔,为伊消得人憔悴”。
对于一个勇敢的登山者来说,他的理想一定在高山之巅。可以想象,当一个登山者一路顽强地登上高高的山顶,他心里有多么幸福!他用行动证明了这样一句名言:没有比脚更长的路,没有比人更高的山。在他的心里,热爱就是从每一个脚印开始的一路仰望。与之相比,攀登中所经历的艰辛、磨难、生与死的考验等都微不足道。

What does a cake look like? Maybe you've got lots of different answers in mind, but Zhou Yi and his team's cakes will certainly make you feel a-mazed!
Zhou is called China's “Sugar King”. Last November in the UK, he and his team won three gold medals and two bronze medals(铜牌) at the Inter-national Cake Competition, the world's largest cake competition.
Zhou and his team's cakes show not only their great cake-making skills, but also traditional Chinese culture and art. For example, one of the gold medal-winning cakes shows China's first and only female (女性的) em-peror Wu Zetian as a young woman. 4. Someone said that the cake showed the beauty of Chinese art to the world!
But don't think creating such amazing works of art is very easy. “Some parts were made eight times just because the result was not quite what I wanted,” Zhou said. “You need to build every single part over and over again until you find the perfect fit.” 5.他希望能通过他让人们更多地了解中国。

1.fifties in one's fifties表示“在某人五十多岁时”。
2.has worked 句意:他已经在当地的一家工厂工作很多年了。for years 是现在完成时的时间状语。
3.unusual 句意:直到你了解更多,你才能发现关于他的不寻常的事情。unusual意为“不寻常的”。
4.carefully 应用副词修饰works。
5.is respected 根据上下文可知,父亲受到他的同事们的尊重。 被动语态由“be+过去分词”构成。6.talking 句意:他和老人交谈很愉快。have fun doing sth.为固定搭配,故用动名词talking。
7.will give/gives 句意:每当他有一些剩余的钱的时候,他就会把它给有需要的人/他无论什么时候有一些剩余的钱,都会把它给有需要的人。根据语境,可用一般将来时表示将来的动作,或用一般现在时表示经常发生的动作。

1.第三句:leaved改成left leave的过去分词是不规则变化,为left。
2.第四句:去掉have three days ago意为“三天前”,为一般过去时的标志词,所以此句用一般过去时,arrive的过去式是arrived,所以去掉have。
3.第六句:arrive改成arriving before在此句中是介词,其后跟动名词形式。所以arrive改成arriving。
4.第八句:me后加to ask sb. to do sth.意为“要求某人做某事”,为固定用法。
5.最后一句:for改成to look forward to为固定短语,意为“期待,期望”。

(2018江苏苏州中考)
Do you know what you'd like to be when you grow up? It takes most peo-ple many years to find this out. For the young artist Alexandra Nechita, it never really seemed to be a question. From the day she began drawing at the age of two, she was an artist.
Alexandra Nechita was born in Romania in 1985 and moved to California when she was still a baby. As a little child, she loved colouring in her colouring books. Her parents hoped she could spend more time playing with other children, so they took away her colouring books. Alexandra be-gan drawing her own pictures and colouring them in.By the time Alexandra was seven years old, she had begun painting with oil paints. When Alexandra took a local art class, her teacher was amazed at the young artist's unusual style of painting. Alexandra's work was simi-lar in some ways to the paintings by famous artists like Picasso. These artists did not use a realistic style of painting. They allowed their imagina-tions to play an important part in their work. The interesting thing was that little Alexandra had never seen the work of these artists. People called her “Little Picasso”. This was great honour, but Alexandra's style of paint-ing was all her own.
Alexandra's first public show was held at a Los Angeles public library when she was only eight years old. People were amazed at how young Alexandra was, but mostly they loved her imaginative artwork. It did not take long for Alexandra and her work to become famous. She appeared on television programs and in newspapers and magazines all over the world. The sale of a single piece can earn the young artist thousands of dollars. But that is not why Alexandra creates artwork. She just cannot imagine do-ing anything else that would bring her such joy and satisfaction.
Today, Alexandra is a full-time artist. She also works to help support the arts in schools. Alexandra is a strong believer in the power of art as a tool of communication and a bridge to building peace throughout the world.

What are the hottest English words these years?“Selfie” may be one of them. It was even named Word of the Year by Oxford Dictionaries in 2013. The word was first used in an Australian online forum in 2002. Now, almost everybody knows it.
The selfie is a photo that one takes of oneself. People usually take selfies with a smartphone and send them to a social media website. Nowadays, more and more people are taking selfies. From your best friend to your fa-vorite pop star, selfies are taking over Renren and Sina Weibo.
What makes people love selfies?Selfies can help to remember what's go-ing on in their personal life. “Almost every day, I take a photo of myself at school, and save it in my Qzone. These photos record my happy and sad moments.” said Huang Xu, 16, from Hunan. Another usual reason for tak-ing a selfie is to share online. They hope to make friends and share their feelings with others. “During summer vacation, my classmates and I shared many selfies online. Through these photos, we got to know each other's holidays and feelings,” said Wang Lin, 15, from Henan. “I'm too shy to ask someone to take pictures of me, but it's easier to do it by myself.”
Although taking selfies is popular among young people around the world, they should be careful at the places where they take selfies. People are warned(警告)not to take light-hearted selfies in serious places, such as in some traffic accidents. In order to protect art works, the selfie is banned in some museums and galleries, too.
1.The word “selfie” has a history of about ????.
A.2 years B.13 years
C.15 years D.20 years
2.Which could be the best picture to match(搭配)“selfie”?
?
3.In Paragraph 3, the writer mentioned(提到)2 young people to ????.A.talk about their school lives
B.introduce the development of selfies
C.help people take a clear and beautiful selfie
D.explain the different reasons why people love selfies
4.The underlined word “banned” means ???? in Paragraph 4.
A.not visited B.not stopped
C.not allowed D.not watched
5.We probably see the passage in a(an) ????.
A.science book
B.magazine for teenagers

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。介绍的是中外不同的文化观念,即同样的事物,在中国和西方可能代表不同的意义。文章列举了狗和龙两种动物在中西方文化中的差异。
1.animals 结合下文中列举的dog和dragon两个例子可知,句意为“这里有一些关于动物的单词,在西方文化和中国文化中的用法截然不同”。故用名词animals。
2.Chinese 句意:在汉语中,大多数与狗相关的短语,比如“丧家之犬”“疯狗”“走狗”和“狗拿耗子,多管闲事”,都有负面意义。故用名词Chinese。
3.humans 句意:但是在西方国家,狗却被认为是诚实的,是人类的好朋友。名词human意为“人”,这里要用其复数形式humans。
4.person 句意:比如,“你是一只幸运狗”的意思是“你是一个幸运的人”。根据句意和音标可知用名词person,意为“人”。
5.brought 句意:它们(指龙)带来了希望和好运。根据句意和音标可知用动词bring的过去式brought,意为“带来”。
6.parents 根据首字母提示以及后面的“their children”可知,句意为“现在,许多家长都望子成龙。”用名词复数parents,意为“父母;家长”。
7.dangerous 根据下文中的“Heroes killed them to protect people.(英雄杀死它们来保护人们。)”可知句意为“但是在西方文化中,龙是危险的动物。”故用形容词dangerous,意为“危险的”。8.similar 句意:在中国文化和西方文化中,有些东西有相似的意义。故用形容词similar,意为“相似的”。
9.both 根据首字母提示以及后面的“and”可知句意为“在中国和一些西方国家,玫瑰被认为是爱情的象征”。both...and...意为“……和……两者都”。
10.stands 句意:中国人和西方国家的人们认为玫瑰还代表和平、勇敢和友谊。stand for意为“代表;是……的象征”,为固定短语。宾语从句中的主语是可数名词单数rose,故从句中的谓语动词用第三人称单数形式stands。Ⅱ.任务型阅读

How do we know the time? A clock, a watch or a cell phone can help us. However, many years ago there were no clocks and knowing the time was not so easy. Over the centuries, people have developed different w 1???? of telling the time.

On c 4???? days or at night it was impossible to tell the time with a sun clock or a sun-dial.
Water clocks were the f 5???? clocks not to use the sun. The idea is simple. Water flows(流动)from one container(容器)to another.

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文,介绍了从古至今钟表的演变发展,包括古代的太阳钟、日晷、滴漏、机械钟表、石英钟表、数码钟表及手机。
1.ways 句意:几个世纪以来,人们已经发展了断定时间的不同方法。此句是第一段的中心句,引起下文,通过下文每一段介绍一个钟表类型、记录时间的方法可知是ways。
2.invented 句意:大约5,500年前,埃及人发明了太阳钟。根据上文语境可知答案。
3.sun 句意:它的影子展示了太阳的移动。根据本段中提到的sun clock可知此处指“太阳的移动”。4.cloudy 句意:在阴天或夜晚时,用太阳钟或日晷辨别时间是不可能的。根据at night猜测是不见阳光的时候,根据首字母c推断是阴天,故填cloudy。
5.first 句意:滴漏是不使用太阳的第一种钟表。根据上文可知,前面介绍的是太阳钟和日晷,都要用到太阳,这里出现的滴漏是第一个不用太阳断定时间的工具,故填first。
6.level 句意:当水达到某个水平线时,它会移动控制杆,这就显示了时刻。根据语境及对滴漏操作原理的理解可知答案。
7.failed 句意:这些钟表在中东和中国都很受欢迎,但它们不能记录精确的时间。根据句意及逻辑关系可判断出答案。fail to do sth.表示“做某事失败,不能做成某事”。8.but 句意:这个更加精准,但是制作很昂贵。结合句意可以判断出是转折关系,从而推断出使用连词but。
9.improved 句意:这提高了精确性并且允许钟表变得更小了。根据上文可知“机械表不断发展,加入了发条”,这就使精确性提高了。
10.change 句意:在计时上有很大的进步,但是有些事情从未改变。根据最后一句可知尽管钟表更新换代不断发展,可是有些事情依然没变。Ⅰ.完形填空

根据以下内容回答问题。
It was Saturday again. Grace and Karen disliked Saturdays. That was an-other thing the twins had in common. They shared the same clothes and tied their hair in the same manner. In fact, it was hard for their classmates and teachers to tell them apart sometimes.Unlike their classmates, they had to get up early at seven every Saturday to prepare for their lessons. Grace had to attend the art lesson and Karen had to attend her ballet lesson. “How I wish I could do something different today,”said the twins with one voice. All at once, an idea came to Grace and Karen at the same time. “How would you like to be me for a day?”they asked each other. It seemed like a wonderful plan to them. After giv-ing each other a description of their own friends, Grace put on Karen's bal-let dress while Karen put Grace's brushes and paints into her bag. Then they left for their classes.
When the art lesson started, Karen was lost. Unlike Grace, Karen was poor at drawing. When the art lesson finally ended, Karen didn't dare to hand in her work.Meanwhile, Grace was struggling in the ballet class as well. As she had no idea about the dance steps, she had to follow her classmates blindly. As a result, she kept knocking into them. Their ballet teacher became impatient with her, “Karen, you should remember the basic steps. You can't rely on copying what others are doing.”
When Karen and Grace got home, they were tired out. They decided that they would never try to be someone else they were not. It seemed that the grass was not always greener on the other side.
