1、定语从句知识点定语从句基本概念在复合句中,修饰名词或代词的从句叫定语从句。引导定语从句的词叫关系词。被修饰的名词或代词叫先行词。定语从句一般放在先行词的后面。2定语从句的关系词引导定语从句的关系词有关系代词和关系副词。常见的关系代词包括that, which, who(宾格whom,所有格whose),as 等。关系副词包括where, when, why等。关系代词和关系副词放在先行词及定语从句之间起连接作用,同时又作定语从句的重要成分。3定语从句的分类根据定语从句与先行词的关系,定语从句可分为限制性定语从句及非限制性定语从句。1.限制性定语从句紧跟先行词,主句与从句不用逗号分开,从句不可省
2、去。例如:Any man that / who has a sense of duty wont do such a thing.任何有责任感的人都不会做这样的事。2.非限制性定语从句主句与从句之间有逗号分开,起补充说明作用,如省去,意思仍完整。例如:The house,which we bought last month,is very nice.这幢房子很漂亮,是我们上个月买的.注意:非限定性定语从句中不能使用关系代词 that。4关系代词的用法1.thatthat既可以用于指人,也可以用于指物。在定语从句中作主语、宾语或表语,作宾语可省略。例如:Mary likes music that
3、 is quiet and gentle.玛丽喜欢轻柔的音乐。(that作主语)The coat (that) I put on the desk is blue.我放在桌子上的那件外套是蓝色的。(that作宾语)2.whichwhich 用于指物,在句中作主语、宾语或表语,作宾语可省略。例如:The building which stands near the train station is a supermarket.位于火车站附近的那座大楼是一家超市。(作主语)The film (which) we saw last night was wonderful.我们昨天晚上看的那部电影很好

6、th moves around the sun, as we all know.As we all know,The earth moves around the sun.
