I 定 语 从 句

一、 限定性定语从句

1. that即可代表事物也可代表人，which代表事物；它们在从句中作主语或宾语，that在从句中作宾语时常可省略关系词，which在从句中作宾语则不能省略。而且，如果which在从句中作"不及物动词＋介词"的介词的宾语，注意介词不要丢掉，而且介词总是放在关系代词which的前边，但有的则放在它原来的位置

1) The first doll say "mama"was invented in 1830．

［A］ that it could
［B］ could it
［C］ it could
［D］ that could

2) A solar day is the length of time the Earth to revolve once around the Sun．

2. which作宾语时，根据先行词与定语从句之间的语义关系，先行词与which之间的介词不能丢

［A］ when
［B］ which
［C］ of which

3. 代表物时多用which，但在带有下列词的句子中用that而不用which，这些词包括all, anything, much等，这时的that常被省略(见本节"四、关系代词的省略")

4. who和whom引导的从句用来修饰人，分别作从句中的主语和宾语，whom作宾语时，要注意它可以作动词的宾语也可以作介词的宾语

［A］ when
［B］ whether

［注］ 值得一提的是，表示时间"time"一词的定语从句只用when引导，有时不用任何关系代词，当然也不用that引导

By the time you arrive in London, we will have stayed there for two weeks. ／ I still remember the first time I met her. ／ Each time he goes to besiness trip, he brings a lot of living necessities, such as towers, soap, toothbrush etc.

7. whose是关系代词，修饰名词作定语，相当于所修饰成分的前置所有格

［A］ what is
［B］ there is
［C］ what
［D］ there

二、非限定性定语从句：非限定性定语从句的作用是对所修饰的成分作进一步说明，通常和主句间用逗号隔开，将从句拿掉后其他部分仍可成立

1. which引导的非限定性定语从句来说明前面整个句子的情况或主句的某一部分

2. 在引导限定性定语从句时，that有时相当于in which, at which, for which或at which

3. 有时as也可用作关系代词

2. 从句中缺成分

四、连接代词的省略

22) Most crocodiles will eat anything capture and overpower．

［A］ can
［B］ they can
［C］ which can
［D］ and

五、例题解析

1) D为正确答案。本句中的主句为"The first doll was invented in 1830"，"that could say 'mama'"为定语从句，修饰主句中的名词(主语)"the first doll"。

2) C为正确答案。

3) A错。during是介词，它后面的关系代词只能用which(指人除外)，which在此处指代"the period"，定语从句为"during which people...iron"，修饰主句的主语"the period"。

4) C为正确答案。

5) C为正确答案。

6) B错。改用who，which只能指物，指人时应用who，本句的定语从句修饰the person，关系代词who在从句中作主语。本句也可改用that，因为that也可用来指人，它可在从句中作主语或宾语，但which则只能指"物"。

7) B错。应改用who，因为这里所指代的是"human beings"，而且在从句中作主语，而whom只能用来作宾语。

8) B为正确答案。空白后是一个定语从句，从句中主谓宾齐全，关系副词where指代上面表示地点的名词region(地方，地区)，相当于in which，即in the region，在从句中作地点状语。
