高中英语定语从句详解
一.概念:
(1) 定语从句:在主从复合句中用作定语的从句叫定语从句。
(2) 先行词:被定语从句修饰的成份。先行词可以为一个词,短语,或整个主句。 (3) 引导定语从句的词叫关系词,分为关系代词和关系副词。 关系词的作用:
1) 引导定语从句,连接主句和从句,相当于一个连词;
2) 必在从句中作某个句子成份(可以做主语,宾语,表语,定语,状语)
常用的关系代词: that、 which、 who、whom、whose、as 、but (文语, 置于否定词之后=that/who?not?, \没有??不??\在从句中作主语,宾语) 常用的关系副词(在从句中只作状语): when、why、 where 定语从句三步:第一找出先行词;
第二看先行词在定语从句中的语法功能(做主语、宾语或状语); 第三选择合适的关系词。
二.几个关系代词的基本用法:(作宾语时可省略) ●that: 可指人或物;在定语从句中作主语,宾语,表语。
