定語從句講與練
一、定語的概念：
定語是用來修飾名次或代詞的。比如：
(先試試用橫線劃出下面短語中的定語，然后在后面的括號里注明是什么在作定語)
a beautiful girl （ ） three boys （ ） a shoe factory （ ）
Jim’s father ( ) our teacher ( )
the man in the car （ ） the man standing at the door （ ）
the man who is talking with Sam （ ）
二、定語從句的概念及主要特征：
1．定語從句：修飾某一名詞或代詞的從句叫定語從句。被定語從句修飾的詞叫先行詞；定語從句一般緊跟在它所修飾的先行詞之后；引導(dǎo)定語從句的詞叫關(guān)系詞。
請劃出下列句子中的定語從句、先行詞及關(guān)系代詞：
The man who is shaking hands with my father is a policeman.
2. 定語從句的主要特征：
（1）先行詞要在從句中充當(dāng)一定的成分；
（2）what永遠不能引導(dǎo)定語從句；
（3）翻譯時先譯從句，翻譯成“…….的”
三、定語從句的基本用法：

五．定語從句考查重點：
（一）定語從句在下列情況下只能用that，而不能用which指物。（指人時可以用who/whom）
最 不 序 正是 疑 表 人物
1. 當(dāng)先行詞被形容詞最高級修飾時。如：
This is the best film that I have ever seen. 這是我看過的最好的電影。
2. 當(dāng)先行詞是不定代詞everything, anything, nothing (something 除外), all, none, few, little, some等代詞時，或當(dāng)先行詞受every, any, all, some, no, little, few, much等代詞修飾時。如：

7. 當(dāng)先行詞為人與動物或人與物時。如：

（三）“介詞+關(guān)系代詞”引導(dǎo)的定語從句
關(guān)系代詞在定語從句中作介詞賓語時，從句常常由“介詞+關(guān)系代詞”引出。

＝The manager ________________ I work pays much attention to improving our working conditions.我工作的那家公司的經(jīng)理十分注意改善我們的工作條件。

The babies (whom / who / that) the nurse is looking after are very healthy. (正) 那個保姆照看的小寶寶們都很健康。
The babies after whom the nurse is looking are very healthy. （誤）
２．若介詞放在關(guān)系代詞前，關(guān)系代詞指人時只可用whom，不可用who, that；關(guān)系代詞指物時只可用which，不可用that。關(guān)系代詞是所有格時用whose。
The man with whom you talked just now is my neighbour. (正) 你剛才跟他談話的那個人是我的鄰居。
The man with that / who you talked just now is my neighbour. (誤)
The plane in which we flew to Canada was really comfortable. (正)我們?nèi)ゼ幽么笏俗娘w機實在很舒服。

３．“介詞+關(guān)系代詞”前還可有some, any, none, all, both, neither, many, most, each, few等代詞或者數(shù)詞。如：

（四）當(dāng)先行詞被one of修飾時，若one of前有the only，則從句的謂語動詞用單數(shù)，沒有only的話則用復(fù)數(shù)。
He is one of the students who ________ never late. 譯成漢語：________________________
He is the only one of the students who ________ never late. 譯成漢語：_________________
（五）先行詞是時間卻不用when引導(dǎo)，先行詞是地點卻不用where引導(dǎo)，先行詞是原因卻不用why引導(dǎo)。

He is not such a fool as he looks. 他可不象他看上去的那樣傻。
This is the same dictionary as I lost last week. 這部詞典跟我上星期丟失的一樣。
注意：當(dāng)先行詞受the same 修飾時，偶爾也用 that引導(dǎo)定語從句，但與as引導(dǎo)的定語從句意思有區(qū)別。如：
She wore the same dress that she wore at Mary’s wedding. 她穿著她在瑪麗婚禮上穿過的同一條連衣裙。
She wore the same dress as her younger sister wore. 她穿著跟她妹妹所穿的一樣的連衣裙。
（七）以the way為先行詞的限制性定語從句通常由in which或that引導(dǎo)，而且通常可以省略。如：
