發(fā)布時(shí)間: 2016年09月22日
where : 當(dāng)先行名詞在從句中當(dāng)"地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ)"時(shí),用關(guān)系副詞where連接
例如:
The crime rate rises in cities where the unemployment rate increases. (失業(yè)率高的城市犯罪率也高。) 句中的where = in cities, 表示行為發(fā)生的地點(diǎn)。
這里的要點(diǎn)是能否區(qū)分是用that (which) 還是用 where, 即:是做"主語(yǔ)、賓表語(yǔ)",還是做"地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ)",例如:
I love the small town that we visited last week.
句中"town"做動(dòng)詞"visited"的賓語(yǔ),即"參觀過(guò)的小鎮(zhèn)",故用that連接。
I love the small town where I lived during my childhood.
句中"town" 是動(dòng)詞"lived"的地點(diǎn),即"童年時(shí)住過(guò)的小鎮(zhèn)",故用where.
這也是定語(yǔ)從句的一個(gè)考點(diǎn)。
when : 當(dāng)先行名詞在從句中當(dāng)"時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)"時(shí),用關(guān)系副詞when連接, 例如:
July is the month when we have a lot of rain. (七月是多雨的月份。)
注意"when"定語(yǔ)從句后推的現(xiàn)象,例如:
I think (that) the day will finally come when air pollution can be put under control. (我認(rèn)為空氣污染得以控制的一天最終會(huì)來(lái)到。)
放在主句后面作非限制定語(yǔ)從句時(shí)(前面一般加","號(hào)),"when"一般譯為"此時(shí)","那時(shí)", 例如:
The meeting will be put off until next month, when we will have made all the preparations. (會(huì)議將推遲到下月,那時(shí)一切就準(zhǔn)備就緒了。)
另一個(gè)關(guān)系副詞是why,由于它固定與the reason搭配, 即: the reason why,不難理解,一般也不作為考試的重點(diǎn)。例如:
This is the reason why the electronic computer cannot entirely replace man. 這就是(為什么)電子計(jì)算機(jī)不能完全代替人的原因。
whose (= of which / whom):做先行詞(不管是人還是物)的定語(yǔ),漢語(yǔ)為"…的",不要考慮是否是限制性或非限制性定語(yǔ)從句, 例如:
Pay attention to that boy whose temperature is very high. (理論上也可以寫(xiě)成:Pay attention to that boy the temperature of whom is very high. 注意那個(gè)男孩,他的體溫很高。(非限制性) / 注意那個(gè)體溫很高的男孩。(限制性)
介詞 which (whom)
先看兩個(gè)句子:
This is the house. He has lived in the house for over 30 years.
變?yōu)椤ㄕZ(yǔ)從句
This is the house in which he has lived for over 30 years.
上述句子中,先行詞在從句中充當(dāng)介詞賓語(yǔ),形成"介詞 which / whom"的形式,考試時(shí)要求作出1)要不要介詞;2)若要,使用什么介詞的判斷。由于英語(yǔ)中介詞搭配多為習(xí)慣用法,沒(méi)有多少規(guī)律可循,因此這是定語(yǔ)從句考試的一個(gè)難點(diǎn)。
記住四個(gè)字:瞻前顧后
瞻前:先看看先行詞一般與什么介詞搭配,例如:
There are occasions _____ which joking is not permissible.
→ Joking is not permissible _____ (certain) occasions.
常與occasion搭配的介詞是什么?on, 即:
Joking is not permissible on (certain) occasions. (有的場(chǎng)合是不容許開(kāi)玩笑的。)
↓
There are occasions on which joking is not permissible.
顧后:看看謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞常與什么介詞搭配,例如:
This car, ____ which I paid a lot of money, is now out of date.
→ I paid a lot of money ______ this car.
Pay (money) for something 是一個(gè)固定的搭配,因此應(yīng)填介詞 "for"
當(dāng)A、B、C、D中出現(xiàn) " 介詞 which / whom" 選項(xiàng)時(shí),而你又確實(shí)看不懂時(shí),應(yīng)傾向于選擇" 介詞 which / whom"的形式,例如:
The two elements _____ water is made are the gases oxygen and hydrogen.
A. that
B. which
C. with which
D. of which
傾向選擇C、D;正確答案D,"be made of "(由…組成):
The two elements are gases (oxygen and hydrogen).
Water is made of the two elements.
兩個(gè)句子一合并,便是該句選擇。
(四)其他應(yīng)注意的確問(wèn)題:
(1) 同位語(yǔ)從句只能用"that"連接
常見(jiàn)的同位語(yǔ)先行詞有:fact(事實(shí)), possibility(可能), idea(想法), belief(相信), doubt(疑問(wèn)), news(消息), order(命令), promise(承諾), evidence(證據(jù)), suggestion(建議)等,例如:
Is there any possibility that all the villagers can send their children to school?(有沒(méi)有這種可能,所有村民都能送他們的孩子上學(xué)?)
There can be no doubt that he is a qualified doctor.(毫無(wú)疑問(wèn),他是個(gè)合格的醫(yī)生。)
(2) "as" 也可以做關(guān)系代詞用于連接定語(yǔ)從句,特別是在"such…as…", "the same as…" 以及"正如…"的結(jié)構(gòu)中,例如:
I have never seen a thing as he described. (我從未見(jiàn)過(guò)他所描述的那種事。)
As was expected, the performance was a great success. (正如所料,演出獲得了巨大成功。)
把該句理解為:The performance was a great success, which was expected,就比較容易理解as的這種用法。
將定語(yǔ)從句的連接用三句話歸納一下:
↗ 人用who / whom
(1)先行詞在從句中當(dāng)主、賓、表語(yǔ) →定語(yǔ)用whose
↘ 物用that (= which)/ 非限制用which
↗地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ)用:where
(2)先行詞在從句中當(dāng) →原因狀語(yǔ)(reason)用:why
↘ 時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)用:when
(3)介詞 which / whom結(jié)構(gòu):瞻前顧后
