二、定语从句

定语从句是在复合句中使其修饰的某一名词或代词代表一个（些）或一类特

定的人或东西。在做定语从句 的练习时，首先应该找出先行词，然后再确定选

择关系代词或关系副词。能够引导定语从句的关系代词和关系 副词有

who,whom,whose,that,which,when,why,where。

mouth.(MET'91)

A.it B.which C.this D.that

选B．在非限定性定语从句中，关系代词用which不能用that。

2．He paid the boy $ 10 for washing ten wiondows,most of____hadn't

cleaned for at least a y ear.(MET'90)

A.these B.those C.that D.which

选D．如果选A、B、C，整个句子不符合语法要求，因为有一个"逗号"，

代词一般用which。

3．His parents wouldn't marry anyone____family was poor.(MET'88)

which(diciotnary)。

whom,whosever=anyone whose。

等修饰时，关系代词用tha t。

13．I still remember the day____I first came to Beijing.

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

选C．先行词the day，在定语从句中作状语，所以选when。当先行词是时

间名词或地点名词时，关系词选 用when或where,that或which，主要取决于

在定语从句中所作成份，如果作宾语，用that或which，作状语用wh en或where。

如：

（1）I still remember the days that/which we spent in the countryside.

先行词是the days,spent是及物动词，that/which作spent的宾语。

（2）This is the place where I lived three years ago.

先行词是place,lived是不及物动词，where在从句中作状语。

（3）This is the place that/which we visited three years ago.

先行词是place,visited是及物动词，that/which在从句中作宾语。

know,as you see,as can

be known,as has been pointed out,as is known to all等。

15．I don't like the way____you laughed at her.

A.which B.in that C.where D.that

选D．先行词是the way，表示方式，可用that（可省）或in which来引

导一个定语从句。如果先行词是时 间或原因，也可用that（可省）或when或

why来引导定语从句。如：

（1）This was the reason that/why he was late yesterday.

（2）This is the last time that I shall give you a lesson.

三、名词性从句：
