定语从句的主谓省略

英语语法让很多学生都头疼,因为复杂难懂的句式和词组有时难以记忆。如下是小编给大家整理的定语从句的主谓省略,希望对大家有所作用。

定语从句的主谓省略

用who和whom的情况

先行词为one,ones,anyone,those,且指代人时。如:

The persons I want to talk about with you are Faye Wong and Li Yapeng, the ones who signed a divorce agreement on Friday in Urumqi.

在there be结构中, 修饰主语的定语从句宜用关系代词who指代人。如:There’s a gentleman who wants to see you.

一个句子中带有两个修饰人的定语从句, 其中一个定语从句的关系代词是that, 另一个宜用who以避免重复。如:The student that was praised at yesterday’s meeting is the monitor who is very modest and works very hard.

当关系代词前面有介词,只能用whom。whom在定语从句中作介词的宾语时,介词可放在后面,也可提前以构成“介词+whom(先行词指人)”结构。如:The settlement is home to nearly 1,000 people, many of whom left their village homes for a better life in the city.

whose的用法

关系代词whose一般指人,表示“该人的”,也可指物,表示“该物的”,在以物为先行词时,可用of which代替在从句中作定语。如:Theprize will go to the writer whose story/of whom the story shows the most imagination.

注意:关系代词在定语从句中作主语时,从句谓语动词的人称和数要和先行词保持一致。如:

Tom is one of the engineers who are sent abroad.

Tom is the only one of the engineers who has come up with the solution.

选择关系代词/副词的原则

在选择关系词时,最重要的是分析定语从句所缺的成分。若从句缺主语、宾语、定语或表语,那么必须用关系代词;若从句不缺主语、宾语、定语或表语,那么必须用关系副词。

This is the mountain village that/which I visited last year. (关系词在从句中作宾语)

I will never forget the day when my father returned from America. (关系词在从句中作状语)

先行词是表示方法、方式的'way,后面的定语从句缺方式状语时可以用that或in which引导,也可以省略关系词。如果后面的定语从句中缺少宾语,要用that或which引导,也可以省略关系词。如:

I don’t like the way that/in which/不填 he speaks to his mother.

例1 (2015·湖南卷) It is a truly delightful place, ________ looks the same as it must have done 100 years ago with its winding streets and pretty cottages.

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

解析 D。此句是非限制性定语从句,先行词place在定语从句中作主语,所以要用关系代词引导。as引导非限定性定语从句时要放在句首,故选用which。句意:这真是一个令人愉快的地方,这里蜿蜒的小路和美丽的村舍一定和一百年前看起来一模一样。

例2 (2015·北京卷) Opposite is St. Paul’s Church, ________ you can hear some lovely music.

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

解析 D。这是一个定语从句。先行词是St. Paul’s Church,从句主谓宾成分完整,去掉空后依然是完整的句子,可推断出引导词在从句中作地点状语,用where。句意:对面是圣保罗教堂,在教堂里你能听到一些优美的音乐

点拨 关系代词that和关系副词why不能引导非限制性定语从句。做题之前先看句中有没有逗号,逗号是非限制性定语从句的标志。然后再看句子中缺不缺成分,在定语从句中从句主语和宾语都不缺少时,应该考虑关系副词。
