whose和whom引导的定语从句

- 1 - whose引导定语从句

在英语中，定语从句是一种用来修饰名词或代词的句子。其中，引导定语从句的关系词有很多种，比如who、whom、which、that等等。而在这些关系词中，whose是一个非常特殊的一个。本文就来详细介绍一下whose引导定语从句的用法和注意事项。

一、whose的用法

1. whose的意义

Whose是一个代词，表示“谁的”、“哪个人的”、“哪个物体的”等意义。它可以用来引导定语从句，修饰名词或代词。

2. whose的用法

Whose引导的定语从句可以用来修饰人或物，通常放在被修饰的名词或代词之后。例如：

- This is the man whose car was stolen yesterday.（这是昨天车被盗的那个人。）

- She showed me the book whose cover was torn.（她给我看了那本封面被撕破的书。）

3. whose的替代形式

在口语和非正式的写作中，有时可以用“of whom”或“of which”来代替whose，但这样的表达方式较为拖沓，因此应尽量避免。例如：

- The boy whose father is a doctor. → The boy of whom the

father is a doctor.

- The car whose tire is flat. → The car of which the tire - 2 - is flat.

二、whose的注意事项

1. whose的性别

Whose引导的定语从句可以用来修饰人或物，但是需要注意的是，whose本身没有性别之分，因此在修饰人时，需要根据上下文来确定其性别。例如：

- This is the person whose phone rang just now.（这是刚才电话响的那个人。）

whom引导的非限制性定语从句

whom引导的非限制性定语从句

非限定性定语从句起补充说明作用，缺少也不会影响全句的理解，它与主句往往用逗号隔开。定语从句有限制性和非限制性两种。

whom引导的非限制性定语从句

关系代词whom用于指人，在句中作动词宾语和介词宾语，作介词宾语时，介词可位于句首。

如：Peter, whom you met in London, is now back in Paris.

彼得现在回巴黎了，你在伦敦见过他。

Mr Smith，from whom I have learned a lot，is a famous

scientist.

史密斯先生是一位著名的科学家，我从他那儿学了许多东西。

易错点

1. 引导限制性定语从句时，关系代词which可以与that互换；但引导非限制性定语从句时，只能用which。

例1.She heard a terrible noise, ______ frightened her.

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

例2.She heard a terrible noise ______ frightened her.

A. that B. / C. what D. who

解析： 例1意为：“她听到一个可怕的声音，这使她感到恐惧。”that不能用于引导非限制性定语从句，故选B。例2意为：“她听到了一个使她恐惧的可怕声音。”引导修饰noise的限制性定语从句可以用which或that来引导,故选A。

2. 先行词为reason时，限制性定语可以用why或for which来引导；非限制性定语从句则只能用for which来引导。

例3.I had told them the reason, ______ I didn’t attend the

meeting.

A. for which B. at which C. for whom D. why

1 whose引导的定语从句

一、whose引导的定语从句

whose在从句中作定语，修饰表示人或物的先行词，表示先行词和从句中某个名词的所属关系，意为“……的”。当whose修饰物时，它相当于…of which。

例如：Do you know the woman whose name is Mary.

My grandfather lives in the little house whose windows are white.

=My grandfather lives in the little house of which windows are white.

小试牛刀：Pass me the dictionary. The cover of the dictionary is black.

He has a friend. His friend’s father is a doctor.

【2012天津】 John is the boy_____ legs were badly hurt in the accident.

A. whose B. that C. who D. which

【2013 北京】he has a friend _____ father is a doctor.

A. whose B. that C. who D. which

二、定语从句中引导词的省略

当引导词在从句中做宾语时，无论从句修饰的是人还是物，引导词都可以省略。

例如：Did you go to the talk ( which \ that) the famous professor gave yesterday?

whose 在定语从句中的用法

whose 是定语从句中一个常用的关系代词，表\" …… 的\"之意；它可以指\"人的\"，也可以指\"物的\"；既可以引导限制性定语从句，也可以引导非限制性定语从句。

〖思维一〗whose + n . 可作主语，宾语，功能与 which , whom (who )相同。如：

Mr King , whose legs were badly hurt , was quickly taken to hospital .

The boss in whose department Mr King worked had heard about the

accident .

〖思维二〗whose 既可引导限制性定语从句，又可引导非限制性定语从句。如：

My uncle whose office we have just passed , is a lawyer . 我的叔叔是个律师，刚才我们经过他的办公室 。

Once there was a wise king whose name was Alfred . 从前有一个叫阿尔弗雷德的英国国王。

〖思维三〗whose 代指\"……的\"，既可以指人，也可以指物。如：

Look at the building , whose roof is white . 看那栋楼，楼顶的颜色是白的。

The girl lives in the house , whose windows face south . 那个女孩住在这所房子里，房子的窗户是朝南开的。

〖思维四〗whose 表所属关系指物时，可与 of which 转换，词序一般是：名词+ of which

Look at the building , the roof of which ( = whose roof )is white .

The girl lives in the house , the windows of which ( = whose
