Gate School 定语从句练习Name:
一、定义：在复合句中，修饰某一名词或代词的从句叫做定语从句；被定语从句所修饰的词叫做先行词。
如：1) The man who lives next to us is a policeman. 2) You must do everything that I do.
引导定语从句的词：关系代词that, which, who(宾格who, 所有格whose) 关系副词where, when、why
关系词的作用：1、引导定语从句2、代替先行词3、在定语从句中担当一个成分
单词作定语时通常放在它所修饰的词之前，作前置定语。短语和从句作定语时则放在所修饰的词之后，作后置定语。

(1)The boys who are playing football are from Class One. (2)Yesterday I helped an old man who lost his way.
2. whom指人，在定语从句中充当宾语，常可省略。
(1) Mr. Liu is the person (whom) you talked about.
注意：关系代词whom在口语和非正式语体中常用who代替，可省略。

5. whose通常指人，也可指物，在定语从句中做定语

★Do you like the book whose color is yellow?=Do you like the book the color of which is yellow?
注：that 用法

(b) 介词后不能用。

三、关系副词引导定语从句
关系副词关系副词：在句中作状语关系副词=介词+关系代词
why=for which
where=in/ at/ on/ ... which (介词同先行词搭配)
when=during/ on/ in/ ... which (介词同先行词搭配)
1. where指地点，在定语从句中做地点状语用来表示地点的定语从句。
(1) Shanghai is the city where I was born. (2) The house where I lived ten y ears ago has been pulled down.
2. when引导定语从句表示时间。在定语从句中做时间状语也可做连接词用
(1) I still remember the day when I first came to the school. (2) The time when we got together finally came.
[注]表示时间“time"一词的定语从句只用when引导，有时不用任何关系代词.
By the time you arrived in London, we had stayed there for two weeks. 你到达伦敦时，我们在那里已待了两个星期。
I still remember the first time I met her. 我仍然记得我第一次见到她。

3. why指原因在定语从句中做原因状语
(1) Please tell me the reason why you missed the plane. (2) I don’t know the reason why he looks unhappy today.
注意：关系副词引导的从句可以由“介词+关系代词”引导的从句替换
(1) The reason why/ for which he refused the invitation is not clear,
(2) From the year when/in which he was going to school he began to know what he wanted when he grew up.
注：1）介词后面的关系代词不能省略。
2）that前不能有介词。
3）某些在从句中充当时间，地点或原因状语的"介词+关系词"结构可以同关系副词when ,where和why 互换。This is the house in which I lived two years ago. =This is the house where I lived two years ago.
Do you remember the day on which you joined our club? =Do you remember the day when you joined our club?
This is the reason why he came late. =This is the reason for which he came late.
