一、定语从句及相关术语
1.定语从句：修饰一个名词或代词的从句称为定语从句，一般紧跟在它所修饰的
先行词后面。
2.关系词：引导定语从句的关联词成为关系词
关系词有关系代词和关系副词。关系代词有that, which, who, whom, whose,
as 等；
关系副词有where, when, why等。
关系词常有3个作用：1，引导定语从句。2，代替先行词。3，在定语从句中担
当一个成分。

(5) Do you like the book whose cover is yellow?
(6) Do you like the book the color of which is yellow?
三.介词+关系代词引导的定语从句
关系代词在定语从句中做介词宾语时，从句常由介词+关系代词引导
(1) The school (thatwhich) he once studied in is very famous.
(2) The school in which he once studied is very famous.
(3) Tomorrow I will bring here a magazine (thatwhich) you asked for.

(5) We'll go to hear the famous singer (whomthatwho) we have
often talked about.

talked.

注意：1. 含有介词的动词短语一般不拆开使用，如：look for, look after, take
care of等
(1) This is the watch whichthat I am looking for. (T)
(2) This is the watch for which I am looking. (F)
2. 若介词放在关系代词前，关系代 词指人时用whom，不可用who或者that；

(1) The man with whom you talked is my friend. (T)
(2) The man whothat you talked with is my friend. (F)

know what he wanted when he grew up.

depend on.

非限制性定语从句举例：

powerful.

要注意区分以下几个句子的不同

college.

(2) His brother, who is now a doctor, always encourages him to go to
college.
他的哥哥是当医生的，常鼓励他要考上大学。（他只有一个哥哥）
难点分析
（一）限制性定语从句只能用that 的几种情况
1．当先行词是anything, everything, nothing (something 除外), few, all,
none, little, some 等代词时，或者是由every, any, all, some, no, little,
few, much 等修饰时
(1) Have you taken down everything that Mr. Li has said?
(2) There seems to be nothing that seems impossible for him in the
world.
(3) All that can be done has been done.
(4) There is little that I can do for you.
注意：当先行词指人时，偶尔也可以用who
(4) Any man has a sense of duty won't do such a thing.
2. 当先行词被序数词修饰
(1) The first place that they visited in London was the Big Ben.
3. 当先行词被形容词最高级修饰时

(1) This is the best film that I have seen.
4. 当形容词被the very, the only修饰时
(1) This is the very dictionary that I want to buy,
(2) After the fire in his house, the old car is the only thing that he
owned.
当先行词指人时，偶尔也可以用who
(3) Wang Hua is the only person in our school who will attend the
meeting
5. 当先行词前面有who, which等疑问代词时
(1) Who is the man that is standing there?
(2) Which is the T-shirt that fits me most?
6. 当先行词既有人，也有动物或者物体时
(1) Can you remember the scientist and his theory that we have
learned?
（二）关系代词as和which 引导的定语从句
as和which引导非限制性定语从句，有相同之处也有不同之处。具体情况是：
1．As和which都可以在定语从句中做主语或者宾语，代表前面整个句子。
(1) He married her, aswhich was natural.
(2) He was honest, aswhich we can see.
2. as引导非限制性定语 从句，可放在主句之前，或者主句之后，甚至可以切割
一个主句；which引导的非限制性定语从句只 能放在主句之后。另外，as有“正
如……，正像……”的意思

(1) As is known to all, China is a developing country.
(2) He is from the south, as we can see from his accent.
(3) John, as you know, is a famous writer.
(4) He has been to Paris more than several times, which I don't
believe.
注意：当主句和从句存在逻辑上的因果关系时，常用which
(5) Tom was always late for school, which made his teacher angry.
3. 当先行次受such, the same修饰时，常用as
(1) I have never heard such a story as he tells.
(2) He is not such a fool as he looks.
(3) This is the same book as I lost last week.
注意：当先行次由the same修饰时，偶尔也用that引导定语从句，但是和由
as 所引导的定语从句意思不同
(4) She wore the same dress that she wore at Mary's wedding.
她穿着她在Mary婚礼上穿过的一条裙子。
(5) She wore the same dress as her young sister wore.
她穿着和她妹妹所穿的一样的裙子。
（三）以the way为先行词的定语从句通常由in which, that引导，而且通常
可以省略。
(1) The way in which that. he answered the question was
surprising.
(四) but 有时也可以做关系词引导定语从句

(1) There are very few but understand his idea. ( but= who don't )
(五)区分定语从句和同位语从句
1．定语从句修饰先行词，它和先行词是修饰关系 ；同位语从句说明先行词的具
体内容，是补充说明的关系
(1) The plane that has just taken off is for London. 定语从句
(2) The fact that he has been dead is clear. 同位于从句
2．定语从句由关系代词或者关系副词引导，关系词在句中充当成分，有时可以
省略；同位语从句主要由that引导，在句中一般不做成分；句子也可以由when,
where, how, why, whether, what等词引导，充当成分
(1) The news he told me is true.
(2) The news that he has just died is true.
(3) The problem that we are facing now is how we can collect so
much money. 定语
(4) The problem how we can collect so much money is difficult to
solve.
3. 同位语从句和先行词一般可以用be动词发展成一个完整的句子，而定语从
句不可以
(1) The idea that we could ask the teacher for advice is wonderful.
(2) The idea was that we could ask the teacher for advice.
(3) The fact that the earth moves around the earth is known to all. 同
位语
(4) The fact is that the earth moves around the earth.
