定語從句作為初中英語的難點，在語篇閱讀中對定語從句的考查必不可少。因此掌握定語從句的簡單用法是非常有必要的。

在做此類試題時，首先確定先行詞是指物還是指人，指人就從that, who, whose, whom中選擇;指物就從that, which中選擇。然后再根據(jù)關系詞在從句中所作的成分來確定到底應該用哪一個關系詞。

1定語從句概述

在復合句中作定語的從句叫定語從句。被定語從句所修飾的詞叫先行詞,通常位于定語從句之前。引導定語從句的是關系代詞that,which,who,whose,whom和關系副詞when,where,why。關系代詞或關系副詞既起連接作用,又充當從句中的一個成分。

2關系代詞的用法

一般情況下,that既可指人又可指物,可以代替who,whom和which,在從句中作主語、表語或賓語;which指物,在從句中作主語、表語或賓語;who在從句中作主語、表語或賓語;whom在從句中作賓語;whose在從句中作定語。

A doctor is a person who looks after a patient.

先行詞 主語　 謂語　 　賓語

句意:醫(yī)生就是照顧病人的人。

1.下列情況下,先行詞指物時,只能用that引導,不能用which引導:

(1)當先行詞是all,little,much,none,everything,anything,nothing等代詞時。

Is there anything that you don’t understand?你有什么不懂的地方嗎?

Tom told his mother all that had happened.湯姆把發(fā)生的一切都告訴了他的媽媽。

(2)當先行詞前面有the only,the very,the last等修飾時。

This is the only book that I can find.這是我能找到的唯一的一本書。

(3)當序數(shù)詞或形容詞最高級修飾先行詞時。

This is the best book that I have ever read.這是我讀過的最好的書。

(4)當主句是以特殊疑問詞which開頭的特殊疑問句時。

Which is the hotel that you like best?哪個是你最喜歡的旅館?

2.關系代詞的省略

一般情況下,關系代詞作賓語時可以省略,但關系代詞which,whom在從句中作介詞的賓語并且介詞位于關系代詞之前時,不能省略。

I’ll never forget the day on which I joined the club.我永遠不會忘記我加入俱樂部的那一天。

注意:that,which,who在從句中作主語時,不能省略。

Who is the boy that is talking with our teacher?正在和我們老師談話的那個男孩是誰?

3關系副詞的用法

This is the factory where my father works.

先行詞 地點狀語 主語 謂語

句意:這就是我爸爸工作的那個工廠。

1.when表示時間,在定語從句中作時間狀語。

I still remember the year when you graduated from No.8 Middle School.我依然記得你從八中畢業(yè)的那一年。

2.why表示原因,在定語從句中作原因狀語,其先行詞是表示原因的reason一詞。

We don’t know the reason why he was late for school.我們不知道他為什么上學遲到。

3.where表示地點,在定語從句中作地點狀語。

That is the school where I studied three years ago.那就是我三年前就讀的學校。

4定語從句解題技巧

Running Man is a very relaxing TV program which is popular among the young people.

主句：Running Man is a very relaxing TV program

從句：which is popular among the young people

先行詞：TV program

關系代詞：which

因此,如果確定是考查定語從句,我們就可以排除不是關系代詞或關系副詞的選項，如：what。

在此過程中要掌握“三看”原則。

(1)一看指人還是物

先行詞指人：that,who, whose, whom

先行詞指物：that, which, whose

(2)二看句中作何用

主語 who(人), which(物), that(人/物)

賓語 who/whom(人), which(物), that(人/物)

定語 whose(人/物)

狀語 where(地點), when(時間), why(原因)

如：My brother likes the stories ______ were written by Mark Twain because they are often humorous. 先行詞(the stories)指物,關系詞在從句中作主語,可用關系代詞which/that。

如：He is the boy ______ I talked with just now. 先行詞(the boy)指人,關系詞在從句中作賓語,可用關系代詞whom/who/that/不填。

如：What‘s the name of the girl ______ father is a doctor? 先行詞(the girl)指人,關系詞在從句中作定語,可用關系代詞whose。

如：I still remember the day ________ our new school was built. 從句中不缺成分,先行詞(the day)指時間,關系詞在從句中作狀語,可用關系副詞when。

(3)看是否是特殊情況：

關系詞只能用that的幾種情況

①當先行詞是all, little, much, none, everything, anything, nothing等不定代詞時。如：

Tom told his mother all that had happened. 湯姆把全部情況告訴了他的媽媽。

②當先行詞前面有the only, the very, the last等修飾時。如：

This is the only book that I can find. 這就是我能找到的唯一一本書。

③當序數(shù)詞或形容詞最高級修飾先行詞時。如：

The tallest player that plays football for our team is from Shanghai. 為我們足球隊踢足球的那個最高的運動員來自上海。

④當先行詞既有人又有物時。如：

Let’s talk about the people and the things that we can remember. 讓我們談論我們能夠記起的人和事。

關系詞只能用which的幾種情況:

①關系代詞放在介詞之后。如：

This is the factory in which we once worked. 這就是我們曾經工作過的工廠。

②非限制性定語從句中。如：

This is a famous book, which was written by Lu Xun. 這是魯迅寫的一本有名的書。

③that， those作主語時。如：

Those which are on the desk are English books. 桌子上的那些是英語書。

用who而不用that的情況:

①當先行詞為people和those時，只能用who。如：

Those who want to go there come here please. 那些想去那兒的人請來這邊。

②當先行詞為one, ones, anyone, everyone, none, all(指人)時，只能用who。如：

Anyone who is against us is our enemy. 任何反對我們的人就是我們的敵人。

③先行詞指人，而關系代詞在從句中作主語時，一般多用who。如：

The man who came here yesterday said he would come again in a few days. 昨天來這兒的那個人說過幾天他會再來。
