定语从句
一、 考点梳理:
考点1: 先行词为物时,一般只用that引导从句的情况:
(1) 限制性定语从句中,当先行词被any, every, each, few, little, no, some, the only, the very, just the等修饰时;
(2) 先行词是不定代词all, few, little, much, something, nothing, anything等时;
(3) 先行词被序数词或形容词的最高级所修饰时; (4) 先行词既有人又有物时;
(5)主句中有疑问词which 时,为避免重复;
Which of the pictures that are hanging on the wall is drawn by
your brother?
(6)在限制性定语从句中,当先行词在定语从句中作表语时,只用that;
My hometown is not the one that she used to be. 考点2: 先行词为物时,一(1) 引导非限制性定整个主句);
般只用which引导从句的情况:
语从句(which指前面的某名词或它前面的
(2) 介词后接which (注:先行词为人的话用whom);
(3)当先行词为集体名词时,着眼于整体,用which(如着眼于
各个成员,用who);
Behind the coach walk the football team, who were all wearing
uniforms
注:(非限制性定语从句里)先行词为表示职业的名词时用which而不是who;
Jack’s father was a pilot before he was retired, which Jack always wants to be.
(4) 先行词后有插入语时,用which而不用that;在分隔式定语从
句中也
用which;
This is the discovery which I think is of great importance in history.
The days are gone which I spent together with my cousins . 考点3:先行词为人时,只用who/whom的情况:
(1)当先行词为one, he, those, anyone及people并且前面那些代词指人时;
Those who break the law will be punished . Anyone who breaks the law will be punished.
He who doesn’t reach the Great Wall is not a true man.
(2) 表示人的先行词后有插入语时及在分隔式定语从句中先行词
为人的话用who/whom而不用that ;
This is the boy who everybody knows has won the first place in the competition. A new teacher will
come tomorrow who will teach you maths.
考点4:先行词为人时,只用that的情况:
(1)主句中有疑问词who 时,为避免重复;
Who is the man that is talking to Mr. Smith at the gate? (2) 在限制性定语从句中,当先行词在定语从句中作表语时,只用that;
She isn’t the little girl that she was 20 years ago. 考点5:由as引导的定语从句的几种常见情况:
(1) as引导非限制性定语从句,说明整个主句的内容,可置于句
首或句中。有“正如”之意(as is mentioned/ shown/ known, as is the case, as follows等),而which则没有此意,并且which只能用于逗号后面;
(2)as表示 “正如”,所以当从句中表示否定时或有否定前缀时,
用which而不用as:
