由一道單項(xiàng)選擇題想到……

---定語從句難點(diǎn)突破

定語從句是學(xué)生解題的難點(diǎn)，下面就定語從句的難點(diǎn)進(jìn)行歸納總結(jié)，從而讓學(xué)生深刻地領(lǐng)悟理解定語從句，進(jìn)而掌握解題技巧。

1. 先判斷先行詞是人還是物。

2. 確定關(guān)系代詞或關(guān)系副詞代替先行詞在定語從句中充當(dāng)何種句子成分。

3. 還原定語從句，檢驗(yàn)先行詞在定語從句充當(dāng)?shù)某煞帧?/p>

在處理綜合試卷的過程中，遇到這樣的一道題：

He didn’t put the things ____ they belonged, for＿＿ reason he got his punishment.（D）

A. which; that B. what; this

C. that; whose D. where; which

學(xué)生答錯(cuò)率較高。“他沒有把那些東西放回到他們本該在(原來)的地方，為此他受到了懲罰。” 第一空語境分析，東西應(yīng)放在什么地方。Where引導(dǎo)狀語從句時(shí)意為“在…的地方”；結(jié)構(gòu)分析，belong 為不及物動(dòng)詞，常用固定搭配belong to。They belonged句從結(jié)構(gòu)上說選出的詞只能用來做狀語；如句子為they belonged to則要補(bǔ)足賓語。第二空reason 前的限定詞為that/this，故應(yīng)用which來連接相當(dāng)于and for this/that reason。

類似的用法有in which case、during which time相當(dāng)于and in that/this case、 during that time。

1. Mark was a student at this university from 1999 to 2003, ____he studied very hard and was made Chairman of the Students' Union. （05重慶） A

A. during which time B. for which time C. during whose time D. by that time

2. They stayed with me for two weeks, _______ they drank all the beer i had . C

A. which B. which time C. during which time D. during which

3. I may have to work late, in which case I’ll telephone. C

A. in whose case B. in which C. in which case D. in that case

一、Such…that引導(dǎo)的狀語從句與such…as引導(dǎo)的定語從句的區(qū)別：

Such…that引導(dǎo)的狀語從句，that引導(dǎo)的是一個(gè)完整的句子；而such…as引導(dǎo)的定語從句，as在定語從句中充當(dāng)句子成分。如：His plan was such a good one _______ we all agreed to accept.中，應(yīng)用as，因?yàn)閣e all agreed to accept 缺少賓語，完整的句子為we all agreed to accept it.如為 His plan was such a good one _______ we all agreed to accept it,則應(yīng)用that, 因?yàn)閣e all agreed to accept it 是一個(gè)完整的句子。

1. I don't like such books ____ he recommended. A

A. as B. that C. so D. after which

2. Mr. Smith is _________ a good teacher _________ we all respect him. A

A. such, that B. such, as C. so, that D. so, as

3. Such a book ___ you lent me is too difficult to understand. C

A. that B. which C. as D. like

二、一些特殊的先行詞如situation, point, case, activity，scene及period, festival, occasion等要注意具體情況具體分析。這些詞基本上都是表示時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)的詞，做具體題目時(shí)，要判斷他們在定語從句充當(dāng)?shù)某煞謥頉Q定關(guān)聯(lián)詞。主語、賓語和表語用that/which，狀語用where/when/介詞+which。如：

There is one point______ we must insist on.

We’re just trying to reach a point ___ both sides will sit down together and talk.

第一句定語從句可還原為：we must insist on the point,所以先行詞point在定語從句中作賓語，故用that或省略。第二句定語從句可還原為：at the point both sides will sit down together and talk, 故先行詞point在定語從句中作狀語，所以關(guān)系詞用where/介詞+which。

1. Those successful deaf dancers think that dancing is an activity ______ sight matters more than hearing.（D）

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

A．why B．where C．how D．/

10. After graduation she reached a point in her career she needed to decide what to do. 2007年江西卷 D

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

三、先行詞為地點(diǎn)、時(shí)間及reason和way的定語從句。

表示時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)先行詞以及先行詞為reason、way在定語從句中作狀語時(shí)，相應(yīng)的用: 表示時(shí)間的先行詞：when/介詞+which；表示地點(diǎn)的先行詞：where/介詞+which；reason為先行詞：why/for which/that/…/; way為先行詞：in which/that/…/但解題關(guān)鍵要判斷先行詞在定語從句中作狀語還是作主語、賓語和表語。作狀語，則適用上面得語法規(guī)則，如作主語、賓語和表語，則仍需用that/which（作賓語that/which可省略）。

This is the reason ____ he gave me.

This is the reason ____ he didn’t come to school today.

第一句定語從句可還原為：he gave me the reason, 先行詞reason在定語從句中作賓語，故關(guān)系詞用that/which或省略；第二句定語從句可還原為：for the reason he didn’t come to school today, 故關(guān)系詞用why/for which/that或省略。

1. The place ____ I visited last summer is just the place ____ I spent my childhood. B

A. that; that B. that; where

C. where; where D. where; that

四、介詞+關(guān)系代詞引導(dǎo)的定語從句。

它們的常見結(jié)構(gòu)有：

(1). 介詞+which/whom

(2). 名詞+of+ which/whom

Please pass me the book the cover of which is blue.

(3). 數(shù)詞+of+ which/whom

介詞的選擇根據(jù)介詞與定語從句中動(dòng)詞的搭配關(guān)系；根據(jù)介詞與前面的名詞先行詞的搭配關(guān)系；同時(shí)考慮與動(dòng)詞和名詞的搭配關(guān)系。

五、As 與which引導(dǎo)的非限制定語從句的區(qū)別。

(1). As 引導(dǎo)的非限制性定語從句可以放在主句之前或之后，一般用逗號與主句隔開；而which引導(dǎo)的非限制性定語從句只能放在主句之后。

(2). As引導(dǎo)的非限制性定語從句常與主句意義一致，常譯為“正如”、“就像”；which引導(dǎo)的非限制性定語從句常與主句有因果關(guān)系。

(3). As 常與一些詞連用形成的定語從句，已形成了固定的說法，如：

As is known to all; as has been said before; as is often the case; as often happens, as has been pointed out等。

1. Carol said the work would be done by October, ＿＿personally I doubt very much. (1999全國) D

A. That B. As C. It D. What

六、As is known (to us all),…與it is known (to us all) that…或what is known (to us all)is that…的區(qū)別。

As is known (to us all),…引導(dǎo)的為非限制性定語從句；it is known (to us all)that…引導(dǎo)的是主語從句；what is known (to us all) is that…為主語從句+表語從句。

As is known to us all, the earth is round.

=It is known to us all that the earth is round.

=What is known to us all is that the earth is round.

4. __ is known to everybody is that the moon travels round the earth once every month. C

七、Where 引導(dǎo)的定語從句和where引導(dǎo)的狀語從句的區(qū)別。

He found the books where he had put.

He found the books in the place where he had put them.

第一個(gè)句子為where 引導(dǎo)的句子為狀語從句，where意為“在…… 地方”，從句前無表示地點(diǎn)的先行詞。第二個(gè)句子為定語從句，where引導(dǎo)從句修飾the place，主句為he found the books in the place,定語從句可還原為he had put them in the place,先行詞place在定語從句中作狀語，故關(guān)聯(lián)詞用where/介詞+which。

1. The village has developed a lot ______ we learned farming two years ago. 2007年福建卷D

A. when B. which C. that

2. Plants grow best ____ it is warm and wet. C

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

5. You should let your children play ____ you can see them. A

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

八、名詞fact、hope、idea、news、problem、suggestion等后面跟同位語從句與定語從句的區(qū)別。

定語從句是形容詞從句，其作用相當(dāng)于一個(gè)形容詞，是用來修飾前面的名詞或代詞的；同位語從句是名詞從句，其作用相當(dāng)于一個(gè)名詞，是對前面的名詞作進(jìn)一步解釋的。定語從句的引導(dǎo)詞在從句中充當(dāng)一定的成分，可作主語、賓語、狀語等；而同位語從句中的引導(dǎo)詞在從句只起連接作用，不作任何句子成分。同位語從句與其所修飾的名詞之間是一種同位關(guān)系，二者之間存在邏輯上的系表關(guān)系，可用“主+系+表”結(jié)構(gòu)來表示。例如：

1． We heard the news that he had told her. 我們聽到他對她說的消息。

2． We heard the news that he had won the game. 我們聽到消息他贏得了比賽。

九、one of +復(fù)數(shù)名詞+關(guān)系代詞+復(fù)數(shù)動(dòng)詞和the only one of +復(fù)數(shù)名詞+關(guān)系代詞+單數(shù)動(dòng)詞

He is one of the students who pass the exam.

He is the only one of the students who passes the exam.

第一句先行詞為students，故定語從句的謂語動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)；第二句先行詞為the only one,故定語從句的謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。

1. Beihai Park is one of the most beautiful parks ____ built 300 years ago. D

A. which was B. which were C. that was D. that were

十、定語從句與強(qiáng)調(diào)句型：

強(qiáng)調(diào)句型去掉it is/was … that結(jié)構(gòu)，句子結(jié)構(gòu)仍然完整；定語從句去掉it is/was…that, 句子結(jié)構(gòu)不完整，意思也不完整。強(qiáng)調(diào)句型中被強(qiáng)調(diào)的部分可以是副詞、介詞短語或從句；定語從句中先行詞一般是名詞、代詞和名詞短語。

Was it the place where the party was held?

Was it in the place that the party was held?

It was in the lab that was set up last year that they finished the experiment.

--Where did you get to know her?
