定语从句的详细讲解

1、定语从句的详细讲解一、定语从句的概念 在复合句中，修饰某一名词或代词的从句叫定语从句。被修饰的名词或代词叫先行词，定语从句一般放在先行词的后面。二、定语从句的关系词引导定语从句的关系词有关系代词和关系副词，常见的关系代词包括that， which， who（宾格whom，所有格whose）等，关系副词包括where， when， why等。关系代词和关系副词放在先行词及定语从句之间起连接作用，同时又作定语从句的重要成分。三、定语从句的分类根据定语从句与先行词的关系，定语从句可分为限制性定语从句及非限制性定语从句。限制性定语从句紧跟先行词，主句与从句不用逗号分开，从句不可省去，非限制性定语从句主

2、句与从句之间有逗号分开，起补充说明作用，如省去，意思仍完整。四、关系代词的用法1. that 既可以用于指人，也可以用于指物。在从句中作主语或宾语，作主语时不可省略，作宾语可省略。例如：Mary likes music that is quiet and gentle.玛丽喜欢轻柔的音乐。（that作主语）The coat （that） I put on the desk is blue.我放在桌子上的那件外套是蓝色的。（that作宾语）2.which用于指物，在句中作主语或宾语，作主语不可省略，作宾语可省略。例如：The building which stands near the trai

3、n station is a supermarket.位于火车站附近的那座大楼是一家超市。（作主语）The film （which） we saw last night was wonderful. 我们昨天晚上看的那部电影很好看。（作宾语）3.who， whom用于指人，who 用作主语，whom用作宾语。在口语中，有时可用who代替whom， 也可省略。例如：The girl who often helps me with my English is from England.经常在英语方面帮助我的那个女孩是英国人。（作主语）Who is the teacher （whom） Li Min

4、g is talking to？ 正在与李明谈话的老师是谁？（作宾语）注意：（1）当定语从句中含有介词，介词放在句末时，who， that， which可省略，但介词在关系代词前时，只能用“介词+which/whom”结构。例如：This is the house in which we lived last year.这是我们去年居住的房子。Please tell me from whom you borrowed the English novel.请告诉我你从谁那借的这本英文小说。（2）含有介词的固定动词词组中，介词不可前置，只能放在原来的位置上。例如：This is the perso

5、n whom you are looking for. 这就是你要找的那个人。（3）that 作介词的宾语时，介词不能放它的前面，只能放在从句中动词的后面。例如：The city that she lives in is very far away.她居住的城市非常远。（4）关系词只能用that的情况：a. 先行词被序数词或形容词最高级所修饰，或本身是序数词、基数词、形容词最高级时，只能用that，而不用which.例如：He was the first person that passed the exam. 他是第一个通过考试的人。b.被修饰的先行词为all， any， much， man

6、y， everything， anything， none， the one等不定代词时，只能用that，而不用which.例如：Is there anything that you want to buy in the shop？ 你在商店里有什么东西要买吗？c.先行词被the only， the very， the same， the last， little， few 等词修饰时，只能用that，而不用which.例如：This is the same bike that I lost.这就是我丢的那辆自行车。d. 先行词里同时含有人或物时，只能用that， 而不用which.例如：I

7、can remember well the persons and some pictures that I saw in the room.我能清楚记得我在那个房间所见到的人和一些照片。e.以who或which引导的特殊疑问句，为避免重复，只能用that.例如：Who is the girl that is crying？ 正在哭泣的那个女孩是谁？f.主句是there be 结构，修饰主语的定语从句用that，而不用which.例如：There is a book on the desk that belongs to Tom. 桌子上那本书是汤姆的。（5）关系词只能用which，而不用th

8、at 的情况：a.先行词为that， those时，用which， 而不用that.例如：Whats that which is under the desk？ 在桌子底下的那些东西是什么？b.关系代词前有介词时，一般用which，而不用that.例如：This is the room in which he lives. 这是他居住的房间。c.引导非限制性定语从句，用which， 而不用that.例如：Tom came back， which made us happy. 汤姆回来了，这使我们很高兴。五、关系副词的用法（1）when指时间，其先行词表示时间，在句中作时间状语。例如：This

9、was the time when he arrived.这是他到达的时间。（2）where指地点，其先行词表示地点，在句中作地点状语。例如：This is the place where he works.这是他工作的地点。（3）why 指原因，其先行词是原因，起原因状语作用。例如：Nobody knows the reason why he is often late for school. 没人知道他为什么上学总迟到。六限制性和非限制性定语从句定语从句有限制性和非限制性定语从句两种。一般地说，限制性定语从句用来限制先行词的意义，与先行词关系密切，是整个句子不可缺少的一部分，否则会造成全句

10、意义不明确。而非限制性定语从句带有补充说明的性质，与先行词之间存在一种松散的修饰关系，去掉后一般不会影响句子的主要意义。概括起来，两者有如下区别： 1）形式不同：限制性定语从句常紧跟其先行词，中间不用逗号隔开；而非限制性定语从句与先行词之间常用逗号隔开。 After living in Paris for fifty years, he returned to the small town where he grew 

11、;up as a child. (NMET 1996) 在巴黎生活了50年后，他回到了小时候生活过的那个小镇。 2）意义不同 请比较下面两个句子： My brother who is 18 years old is a college student. 我18岁的那个弟弟是大学生。 My brother, who is 18 years&

12、#160;old, is a college student. 我弟弟是大学生,今年18岁。 第一句中，限制性定语从句限制了先行词的意义，明确是18岁的那个弟弟（而不是其他的，即有可能还有几个弟弟）。第二句使用了非限制性定语从句，表明可能只有一个弟弟，18岁，起补充说明作用。 另外，如果先行词是专有名词或独一无二的人或物，通常用非限制性定语从句。 His mother, who loved him very much, died in&

13、#160;1818. 最爱他的母亲于1818年去世了。 I like to chat with Jack, who is a clever boy. 我喜欢和杰克聊天，他是个聪明人。 When he was 17, he went to a technical school in Zurich, Switzerland, whe

14、re he studied maths and physics. 17岁那年，他到瑞士的苏黎士一家技校上学，在那儿他学习了数学和物理。 3）先行词不同：限制性定语从句的先行词通常是名词或代词，而非限制性定语从句的先行词除名词或代词外，还可以是整个主句（此时，常用which或as引导从句）。 All that is needed is a supply of oil. (MET1989) 所需要的只是一些油而已。

15、60;Carol said the work would be done by October, which personally I doubted very much. (NMET 1999) 凯罗尔说工作可在10月前完工，这一点我个人深感怀疑。 As has been announced, we shall have our fin

16、al exams next week. (2003上海春) 我们将于下周举行期末考试，这一点刚才已经宣布了。 句中as 是关系代词，引导非限制性定语从句，指代后面整个主句的内容。 4）引导词不同：限制性定语从句的引导词可用关系代词that, which, who( whom, whose), as和关系副词when, where, why；除that 和why 外，其它的关系代词、关系副词均可引导非限制性定语从句。 

17、He is the only one of the students who / that has been a winner of scholarship for three years. (NMET 2000春) 他在这些学生中是唯一连续3年获得奖学金的一个。 She heard a terrible noise, 

18、;which brought her heart into her mouth. (MET 1991) 她听到一个可怕的声音，差点儿把胆都给吓破了。（句中which不可用that代替） The famous basketball star, who tried to make a comeback, attracted a lot of attention.

19、 (2002 春季) 那个篮球明星试图复出江湖，吸引了众人的注意。（句中who不可用that代替） 5）引导词省略情况不同：众所周知，在限制性定语从句中，关系代词如果充当从句的宾语可以省略；而非限制性定语从句中的关系代词是不能省略的。 Is this the book (that / which) you are looking for? (NMET 1999) 这就是你要找的那本书吗？（关系代词that 

20、/ which充当从句的宾语，可以省略） The result of the experiment was very good, which we hadn't expected. 实验的结果非常好，这简直出乎我们的意料。( 关系代词 which在从句中充当expect的宾语，但因为引导的是非限制性定语从句，所以不能省略) 6）译法不同：把句子翻译成汉语时，限制性定语从句中，通常先译从句后译先行词；而非限制性定语从句中

21、则往往相反。 We are living in an age when many things are done on computer. (2003 北京春) 我们生活在一个许多工作都由电脑来完成的时代。 We will be shown around the city: school, museums and some

22、60;other places, where other visitors  seldom go. (2002北京) 我们将被带去参观全市各地：包括学校、博物馆和其它场所，那些其它游客很少去的地方。 引用 2010高考定语从句集合定语从句-精讲精练一、定语从句考点：（五大考点，每年必考）（1）考点1：定语从句的本质（2）考点2：用关系代词还是关系副词（3）考点3：关系代词和关系副词的特殊情况（4）考点4：在“介词+which/whom”的结构中，介词的选择（5）考点5：非限制性定语从句二、-高考英语语法精
