1、定語從句詳細講解（一）定義及相關術語1定語從句：修飾某一名詞或代詞的從句叫定語從句。定語從句一般緊跟在它所修飾的先行詞之后。2先行詞：被定語從句修飾的詞叫先行詞。3關系詞：引導定語從句的詞叫關系詞。關系詞有關系代詞和關系副詞。關系代詞有that,which,who,whom,whose,as等；關系副詞有when,where,why等。關系詞通常有下列三個作用：A、引導定語從句；B、代替先行詞；C、在定語從句中擔當一個成分。例如：Themanwhoisshakinghandswithmyfatherisapoliceman.該句中，whoisshakinghandswithmyfather是定

17、retakingplaceinthecitywhere/inwhichtheylive.他們生活的城市正發生巨大的變化。Thereasonwhy/forwhichherefusedtheinvitationisquiteclear.他為什么拒絕接受邀請的原因是十分明了的。（五）限制性定語從句和非限制性定語從句限制性定語從句 形式上：不用逗號“，”與主句隔開。意義上：是先行詞不可缺少的定語，如刪除，主句則失去意義或意思表達不完整。譯法上：譯成先行詞的定語：“的”關系詞的使用上：A作賓語時可省略 B可用that C可用who代替whom非限制性定語從句形式上：用逗號“，”與主句隔開。意義上：只是對

18、先行詞的補充說明，如刪除，主句仍能表達完整的意思。譯法上：通常譯成主句的并列句。關系詞的使用上：A不可省略 B不用that C不可用who代替whom限制性定語從句舉例：TheteachertoldmethatTomwastheonlypersonthatIcoulddependon.老師告訴我說湯姆是我唯一的可以依靠的人。Chinaisacountrywhichhasalonghistory.中國是一個歷史悠久的國家。InthestreetIsawamanwhowasfromAfrica.在街上我看到一個來自非洲的人。非限制性定語從句舉例：Hismother,wholoveshimverym

19、uch,isstrictwithhim.他媽媽十分地愛他，對他要求很嚴格。China,whichwasfoundedin1949,isbecomingmoreandmorepowerful.中國是1949年成立的，現在正變得越來越強大。LastsummerIvisitedthePeoplesGreatHall,inwhichmanyimportantmeetingsareheldeveryyear.去年夏天，我參觀了人民大會堂，在那兒每年都要舉行許多重要會議。（一）限制性定語從句中只能用that引導定語從句的情況1當先行詞是everything,anything,nothing(somethi

20、ng除外),all,none,few,little,some等不定代詞時，或當先行詞受every,any,all,some,no,little,few,much等代詞修飾時。如：HaveyoutakendowneverythingthatMr.Lisaid?李老師講的你都記下來了嗎？Thereseemstobenothingthatisimpossibletohimintheworld.對他來說似乎世界上沒有什么不可能的事。Allthatcanbedonehasbeendone.所有能做的都做好了。ThereislittlethatIcandoforyou.我不能為你干什么。Hestayedi

21、nthelibraryandlookedupanyinformationthattheyneeded.他呆在圖書館查找所需的資料。注意：當先行詞指人時，偶爾也可用關系代詞who，如：Anymanthat/whohasasenseofdutywontdosuchathing.任何有責任感的人都不會做這樣的事。Allthegueststhat/whowereinvitedtoherweddingwereimportantpeople.所有應邀來參加她婚禮的客人都是重要人物。2當先行詞被序數詞修飾時。如：ThefirstplacethattheyvisitedinLondonwastheBigBen

22、.在倫敦他們參觀的第一個地方是大本鐘。3當先行詞被形容詞最高級修飾時。如：ThisisthebestfilmthatIhaveeverseen.這是我看過的最好的電影。4當先行詞被thevery,theonly修飾時。如：ThisistheverydictionarythatIwanttobuy.這正是我要買的詞典。Afterthefireinhishouse,theoldcaristheonlythingthatheowns.家里發生了火災過后，那輛舊車成了他的唯一擁有。注意：當先行詞指人時，偶爾也可用關系代詞who。如：WangHuaistheonlypersoninourschoolwh

24、瞧那個沿街走來的人和他的毛驢。（二）關系代詞as和which引導的定語從句as和which引導非限制性定語從句時，其用法有相同之處，也有不同之處。具體情況是：1.as和which都可以在定語從句中做主語或賓語，代表前面整個句子。如：Hemarriedher,as/whichwasnatural.他跟她結婚了，這是很自然的事。Heishonest,as/whichwecansee.他很誠實，這一點我們看得出來。2.as引導的非限制性定語從句可以放在主句之前、主句之后，甚至還可以分割主句。which引導的非限制性定語從句只可放在主句之后。另外，as常常有“正如、正像”的含義。如：Asisknown

25、toall,Chinaisadevelopingcountry.眾所周知，中國是發展中國家。Heisfromthesouth,aswecanknowfromhisaccent.他是南方人，這一點我們從他的口音可以知道。John,asyouknow,isafamouswriter.正如你所知，約翰是個著名作家。ZhangHuahasbeentoParismorethantentimes,whichIdontbelieve.張華已去過巴黎十多次了，這一點我不相信。注意：當主句和從句之間存在著邏輯上的因果關系時，關系詞往往只用which。如：Tomwaslateforschoolagainandag

26、ain,whichmadehisteacherveryangry.湯姆老是遲到，這使得老師很惱火。Thesetablesaremadeofmetal,whichmadethemveryheavy.這些桌子是金屬的，這使得這些桌子很重。1.當先行詞受such,thesame修飾時，關系詞常用as。如：Iveneverheardsuchstoriesashetells.我從未聽過象他講的這樣的故事。Heisnotsuchafoolashelooks.他可不象他看上去的那樣傻。ThisisthesamedictionaryasIlostlastweek.這部詞典跟我上星期丟失的一樣。注意：當先行詞受

27、thesame修飾時，偶爾也用that引導定語從句，但與as引導的定語從句意思有區別。如：SheworethesamedressthatsheworeatMaryswedding.她穿著她在瑪麗婚禮上穿過的同一條連衣裙。Sheworethesamedressasheryoungersisterwore.她穿著跟她妹妹所穿的一樣的連衣裙。(三)以theway為先行詞的限制性定語從句通常由inwhich或that引導，而且通常可以省略。如：Theway(that/inwhich)heansweredthequestionswassurprising.他回答這些問題的方式令人驚奇。Idontlike

28、theway(that/inwhich)youlaughather.我不喜歡你沖她的樣子。（四）關系代詞與關系副詞的選擇用關系代詞還是關系副詞引導定語從句主要看關系詞在定語從句中的作用（即所擔當的成分）。試比較：A.Iknowaplacewherewecanhaveapicnic.我知道一個我們可以野炊的地方。Iknowaplacewhich/thatisfamousforitsbeautifulnaturalscenery.我知道一個以自然景 色優美而聞名的地方。B.Iwillneverforgetthedayswhenwespentourholidaystogether.我永遠忘不了我們一

30、同位語從句的區別1定語從句修飾限定先行詞，它與先行詞是修飾關系；同位語從句說明先行詞的具體內容，它與先行詞是同位關系。TheplanethathasjusttakenoffisforParis.（定語從句）剛剛起飛的那架飛機是開往巴黎的。Thefactthathehasalreadydiedisquiteclear.（同位語從句）他已經去世了，這個事實很明了。2定語從句由關系代詞或關系副詞引導，關系詞在從句中擔當相應的句子成分，關系代詞在從句中作賓語時經常可省略。同位語從句主要由連詞that引導，在從句中一般不擔當成分；有時也由where,when,how,who,whether,what等連

31、詞引導，這些連詞則在從句中擔當成分。Thenewsthathetoldmeistrue.（定語從句）他告訴我的消息是真的。Thenewsthathehasjustdiedistrue.（同位語從句）他剛剛去世了，這個消息是真的。Theproblemthatwearefacingnowishowwecancollectsomuchmoney.(定語從句)我們現在面臨的問題是如何籌集這么多資金。Theproblemhowwecancollectsomuchmoneyisdifficulttosolve.（同位語從句）我們如何籌集這么多資金，這個問題很難解決。Thequestionthatherai

32、sedpuzzledallofus.（定語從句）他提出的問題讓我們很為難。Thequestionwhetherheissuretowinthegameishardtoanswer.（同位語從句）他是否一定會贏得那場比賽，這個問題很難回答。3同位語從句與先行詞一般可以用動詞be發展成一個完整的句子,而定語從句則不能。如：A.Theideathathewecouldasktheteacherforadviceiswonderful.（同位語從句）我們可以向老師請教，這個主意不錯。Theideawasthatwecouldasktheteacherforadvice.B.Thefactthatthe

33、earthmovesaroundthesunisknowntoall.（同位語從句）地球圍繞太陽轉，這個事實人人皆知。Thefactisthattheearthmovesaroundthesun.C.Payattentiontotheproblemhowwecanprotectthewildanimals.（同位語從句）請注意如何保護野生動物這個問題。Theproblemishowwecanprotectthewildanimals.Exercises:1.There are three bedrooms in the house,_ is Marys.

A. that B. when C. at which D. which 8. I dont like _ you speak to her. A. the way B. they way in that

40、C. the way which D. the way of which 答案與簡析： 1. B。當先行詞被such修飾時，定語從句用as引導，即構成結構為such+（a/an）形容詞名詞as引導的定語從句，意為.像.一樣的。整個句子意為：這些房屋以人們原來估計的那樣低的價格出售。 2. A。由so interesting a story = such an interesting story和上面一題的解釋便可得知答案。as在定語從句中作賓語。整句意為：我從未聽說過像你告訴我那樣有趣的故事。 3. A 4. C。當先行詞被same修飾時，定語從句由that或as引導，但意思不同。用that引

41、導定語從句指同一物，而用as引導定語從句指同類事物。 5. A。做此題的關鍵是要知道I think在定語從句中作插入語，做題時將其去掉便可容易得到答案。 6. B。s在此引導非限制性定語從句，代表它所修飾的整個句子內容，并且它可放在所修飾句子的前、中或后面。其常見結構如：as you know, as is said above, as is often the case（情況經常是這樣）等。如選，則需將逗號改為that；如選D，則需將逗號改為is that。 7. A。當先行詞為the first time, the last time等時，定語從句的引導詞用that而不用when。 8.

42、A。當先行詞為way時，定語從句的引導詞用that或in which, 也可省略。定語從句1This is the best factory _we visited last year .A. where B. which C. in which D. that2.Is this the factory _computers are built ?A. that B. which C. in which D. in that3.please pass me the dictionary _cover is red .A. whose B.its C. which D. which of4.Th
