As和which都可以在定语从句中做主语或者宾语，代表前面整个句子。(1) He married her, as/which was natural.(2) He was honest, as/which we can see.2. as 引导非限制性定语从句，可放在主句之前，或者主句之后，甚至可以切割一个主句；which 引导的非限制性定语从句只能放在主句之后。另外，as有“正如，正像”的意思(1) As is known to all, China is a developing country.(2) He is from the south,

18、as we can see from his accent.(3) John, as you know, is a famous writer.(4) He has been to Paris more than several times, which I dont believe. 注意：当主句和从句存在逻辑上的因果关系时，常用 which(5) Tom was always late for school, which made his teacher angry.3. 当先行次受 such, the same 修饰时，常用 as(1) I have never heard such a

20、着和她妹妹所穿的一样的裙子。(三) 以 the way 为先行词的定语从句通常由 in which, that 引导，而且通常可以省略。(1) The way in which/ that/./ he answered the question was surprising.(四) but有时也可以做关系词引导定语从句(1) There are very few but understand his idea. ( but= who dont )(五) 区分定语从句和同位语从句1. 定语从句修饰先行词，它和先行词是修饰关系；同位语从句说明先行词的具体内容，是补充说明的关系(1) The pla

21、ne that has just taken off is for London.定语从句(2) The fact that he has been dead is clear.同位于从句2. 定语从句由关系代词或者关系副词引导，关系词在句中充当成分， 有时可以省略； 同位语从句主要由 that 引导， 在句中一般不做成分；句子也可以由 when, where, how, why, whether, what 等词引导，充当成分(1) The news he told me is true.(2) The news that he has just died is true.定语(3) The

24、与定语从句）；2.担任功能（在定语从句中担任主、宾、表、定、状语）3.替代功能（在定语从句中代替先行词）。A pla ne is a machi ne.
