定語從句在聽力、閱讀和翻譯中經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)，是需要重點把握的語法點之一。

在把握定語從句的時候大家要注意以下幾點：

1. 定語從句的作用主要是用來修飾先行詞；

2. 定語從句和主句之間需要有關(guān)系詞來進行連接；

3. 關(guān)系詞在從句中代替先行詞，并且充當一定的成分。根據(jù)關(guān)系詞在從句中成分的不同，關(guān)系詞是有所不同的。

例1：

Great changes have taken place in the?factory? ?where???we are working.

? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?先行詞? ??關(guān)系詞????由where引導(dǎo)的從句

在這個例句中，factory是先行詞，由where引導(dǎo)的定語從句來修飾；同時由where替代的這個先行詞在從句中作狀語。如果仍然不能分清結(jié)構(gòu)，可以把句子拆分：

主句： Great changes have taken place in the?factory.

從句： We are working?in the factory.

關(guān)系詞如何選擇？可以分三步走：

第一步，首先確定先行詞；

第二步，然后確定它在定語從句中做什么成分；

第三步，之后可以進行具體分類。

1. 先行詞是人：如果在從句中做主語，關(guān)系詞用who；做賓語，用who 或whom；做定語,用whose

例2：

He is the person who/whom we are looking for.

2. 先行詞是物：在從句中做主語或賓語都用which；作定語用of which, 或whose；

例3：

This machine which I have looked after for years is still working perfectly.

注意：

1) 如果先行詞在從句中做狀語，表示時間、地點和原因，關(guān)系詞就要使用when，where和why. 如例1的情況就是先行詞在從句中充當?shù)攸c狀語，因此用where.

2)?在限定性定語從句中，which, who, whom?都可以被that?取代。所以例2、例3中的關(guān)系詞也可以省略。

3) 非限制性定語從句通常標志，從句和主語之間用逗號隔開。

例4：

This is a critical problem in the company,?which?need to be solved immediately.

這個句子就是非限定性定語從句，在這種情況下，關(guān)系詞通常用which。

真題示例：

The prevention and treatment of AIDS is?_______(我們可以合作的領(lǐng)域) .

1.?已有謂語is,空白處一定是從句

2.?漢語意思已經(jīng)是完整的一句話，因此，一定是定語從句，并確定先行詞：領(lǐng)域，the field?或a field,不用想，一般用which引導(dǎo)

3.?先行詞要提前，所以僅按順序譯“我們可以合作的”：we can cooperate

確定介詞，在……領(lǐng)域，用in,答案為：in the/a field which we can cooperate

【解析】

1. 當先行詞被same修飾時，定語從句由that或as引導(dǎo)，但意思不同。用that引導(dǎo)定語從句指同一物，而用as引導(dǎo)定語從句指同類事物。

2. A. with which是"介詞+關(guān)系代詞"結(jié)構(gòu), 常用來引導(dǎo)定語從句. with有"用"的意思,介詞之后只能用which,不能用that. with which在定語從句中作狀語,即he is writing with a pen.

3. with whom引導(dǎo)定語從句。with whom放在從句中即為:my father works with the engineer.

4. 因為先行詞是the time，且在定語從句中作狀語，所以用when引導(dǎo)。此題的先行詞與定語從句被主句謂語分開了，要善于辨別。

5. 非限定性定語從句。先行詞為the exciting moment , 將先行詞放入從句為For the first time in the years their team won the world cup at the moment, 先行詞放入從句作時間狀語。 句中for the first time in years為強詞調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)。 答案為D。

6. 當定語從句的先行詞前有such, so, as等詞語時，由as引導(dǎo)，并且as在定語從句中作主語或賓語，as在此題中作dream of的賓語。注意：在表示“如此…以致…”的such /so…that…結(jié)構(gòu)中，that不作任何句子成份。

7. through which引導(dǎo)定語從句，through which即through the hole,在定語從句中作狀語。What引導(dǎo)的是see的賓語從句，并作從句的主語。

8. 主語與run(延伸)是主動關(guān)系，所以用現(xiàn)在分詞。Those指街道，先行詞為物，所以不用who而用that來引導(dǎo)定語從句。

9.前一空定語從句的完整句為I lived in the country with the farmers those years. 先行詞在從句中作非主賓表成分，先行詞與時間相關(guān)。后一定語從句的完整句子在理解基礎(chǔ)上的意思轉(zhuǎn)換為The experience has a great effect on my life. The experience= I lived in the country with the farmers those years。所以整句為先行詞，在從句中做主語。因此，答案為B。

10. 限定性定語從句。先行語the dictionary, 放入從句為you talked about the dictionary the other day. 先行詞短語結(jié)構(gòu)在從句中作賓語，從句可用about which you talked the other day 或 which/ that/ 省略引導(dǎo)詞 you talked about the other day. 答案為D。
