在复合句中作定语、修饰主句中某一名词或代词的从句叫作定语从句。被定语从句修饰的词叫作先行词;引导定语从句的词叫关系词,包括关系代词that,which,who(whom,whose)和关系副词when,where,why。弄清楚什么是先行词以及关系词在定语从句中所充当的成分,是解题的关键。

一、考查关系代词that引导的定语从句

关系代词that既可指人也可指物,可以代替who,whom和which。that在定语从句中可作主语或谓语动词的宾语,还可作表语。作宾语、表语时可省略。例如:

1.Do you like music_______makes you relaxed?

A.it B.whatC.who D.that

【解析】先行词music指物,要填的引导词在从句中作主语,关系代词要用that,选D。

2.—The village_______I visited last year has changed a lot.

—Really?I hope to go there one day.A.that B.who C.when

【解析】先行词the village指物,要填的引导词在从句中作visited的宾语,所以关系代词用that,选A。

3.My father is no longer the man that he was.

我的爸爸已经不是过去的样子了。

【解析】关系词that在从句中作表语。

二、考查关系代词which引导的定语从句

关系代词which指物,在定语从句中可作主语或谓语动词的宾语,作宾语时常可省略。例如:

1.This is my beautiful school_______is near the famous library.

A.where B.which C.who D.when

【解析】先行词school指物,要填的引导词在从句中充当主语,因此关系代词用which,选 B。

2.—Have you found the information about the famous people_______you can use for the report?

—Not yet.I’ll search some on the Internet.

A.who B.whatC.whom D.which

【解析】the information about the famous people意思是“关于著名人物的信息”,先行词information指物,要填的引导词在从句中作use的宾语,因此用关系代词which引导定语从句,选D。

3.—What are you looking for?

—I’m looking for the pen_______I bought yesterday.

A.who B.which C.whose

【解析】先行词the pen指物,要填的引导词在从句中作宾语,因此该空要用关系代词which引导定语从句,选B。

【温馨提示】

先行词指物且在定语从句中作主语或宾语时,通常情况下,关系词既可用that,也可用which。但在下列情况下,先行词指物时,只能用that引导,不能用which引导。

(1)当先行词是不定代词everything,anything,nothing等或被某些不定代词修饰时;

(2)当先行词是序数词或被序数词修饰时;

(3)当先行词是形容词的最高级或被形容词最高级修饰时;

(4)当主句以there be开头时;

(5)当先行词前面有 the very,the only,the same等修饰语时。

1.There are lots of things_______I need to prepare before the trip.

A.who B.that

C.whom D.whose

【解析】先行词things指物,要填的引导词在从句中作宾语,只能用that,选B。

2.I’ve found some pictures of the most interesting places_______you can visit during the winter holidays.

A.where B.which

C.what D.that

【解析】先行词places被形容词最高级the most interesting修饰,要填的引导词在从句中作宾语,因此该空只能选用关系代词that,选 D。

三、考查关系代词who,whom,whose引导的定语从句

关系代词who指人,在从句中作主语;whom指人,在从句中作宾语,可以省略;先行词在从句中作宾语时,whom可用who代替,如果关系词whom紧跟在介词后,只能用whom;whose既可指人,也可指物,在从句中作定语。例如:

1.Do you know the girl_______is singing in the classroom?

A.who B.which C.when

【解析】句意为:你认识正在教室里唱歌的那个女孩吗?先行词the girl指人,要填的引导词充当定语从句中的主语,因此该空应填关系代词who,答案为A。

2.Jim dislikes people_______ talk much but never do anything.

A.whom B.when

C.whose D.who

【解析】先行词people指人,要填的引导词在从句中作主语,所以选用关系代词who引导定语从句,答案为D。

3.Friends are those_______make you smile,always open their hearts to you and encourage you to succeed.

A.which B.whatC.whom D.who

【解析】先行词those在此指人,要填的引导词在从句中作主语,因此该空选用关系代词who引导定语从句,答案为D。

4.The girl_______you talked with at the school gate is our new math teacher.

5.I like the teacher_______classes are very interesting and creative.

A.which B.who C.whatD.whose

A.where B.whose

C.in which D.that

【解析】先行词one of the experienced engineers指人,意思是“众多有经验的工程师之一”,关系代词whose引导定语从句且作定语来修饰work,答案为B。

四、考查关系副词when,where,why引导的定语从句

关系副词when,where,why起连接主句与从句的作用,同时又在从句中作时间状语、地点状语和原因状语。

(一)when指时间,在从句中充当时间状语,且先行词都是表示时间的名词。如time,month,day,hour,date,week,year等。

1.I began to work in Shanghai in the year_______Hong Kong was returned to China.
