用还原法解决定语从句难题

1、用还原法”解决定语从句的难题定语从句原本就是一个完整的句子，用个关系代词或关系副词引导而成为从句。因为关系代此和关系副词要位于从句的开头，改变了原来句子的结构的顺序，常常会给定语从句的使用和理解造成困难。用“还原法”将定语从句还原成原来的独立句子往往可以简化难点，使问题变得容易。关系代词或关系副词的选 择和which前的介词的选择是中学生英语中定语从句内容的重难点，本文仅在这两个方面向读者演示“还 原法”的使用，希望对读者在解决类似问题时有些帮助。、是用关系代词还是关系副词？众所周知，关系代词替代先行名词，在定语从句中充当主语、宾语或定语；关系副词替代“介词+先行名词”，在定语从句中充当状语。

2、据此，在还原的句子里，通过分析句子的构成，可以容易地断定先行 词在句子中的作用，从而使用适当的关系词。如：The film brought the hours back to meI was taken good care of in that far-away village.A. untilB. thatC. whenD. where定语从句还原为：In the hours I was taken good care of in that far-away village.故选 when作时间状语。The hoursthe children spend n their one-way re

4、 done on computers.A. whichB. thatC. whoseD. when定语从句还原为： In this age many things are done on computers.故选 when表达 in thiscage义，作时间状语。Anyway, that evening,I ll tell you more about later, I ended up staying at Rachels place.A. whenB. whereC. whatD. which定语从句还原为：I ll tell you more aboutthat evening lat

5、er.先行词在这里作介词about的宾语，故选which。A fast food restaurant is the place, just as the name suggests, eating is performedquickly.A. whichB. whereC. thereD. what定语从句还原为 :In the place eating is performed quickly.故选 where 作地点状语。其中的 just as the name suggests是为了增加难度而设的，应去不作考虑。York,last year, is a nice old city.A.

6、 that I visitedB. which I visitedC. where I visitedD. in which I visited定语从句还原为：I visited York last year. 先行词在这里作及物动词 visited的宾语，故选关系代词which弓I导非限制性定语从句。York,we stayed for two months last year, is a nice old city.A. thatB. whichC. whereD. when定语从句还原为：先行词york在这里与in 一起作地点状语，故用C. where。另亦可用in which 。Is

7、this the reasonat the meeting for his carelessness in his work?A. he explained B. what he explainedC. how he explained D. why he explained还原定语从句成：He explained the reason at the meeting for his carelessness in his work.先行词the reason在这里作宾语，因而要用关系代词that或which引导定语从句。而关系代词作宾语被省略，故选A。Is this the reasonhe

8、didn t attend the meeting?A. on whichB. whyC. whereD. which还原定语从句成： He didn t attend the meetingfor the reason. 先行词 the reason 与介词 for结合，作原因状语，故选why表达for the reason义。另亦可用for which 。0.

9、. their定语从句还原为 ：Asian- Americans population is increasing rapidly. 先行词 Asian-america ns在这里用所有格作定语，故选whose表达Asian- Americans 义，作定语。、用什么介词？当“介词+which ”放在定语从句首位时，会给介词的确定或其它方面问题造成困难。把定语从句还原 为独立的句子、使介词回归原位后问题往往能迎刃而解。Luckily, we d brought a road map,which we would have lost our way.A. withB. withoutC. for

10、D. on定语从句还原为：We would have lost our waythe road map.根据句意，应该用 without 。American women usually identify their best friend as someonethey can talk frequently.A. whoB. asC. about whichD. with whom定语从句还原为：They can talkthem frequently.根据句意用 with才对。The journey around the world took the old sailor nine mont
