    「評(píng)析」
    從以上各題可以看出,定語(yǔ)從句的考查還是集中在關(guān)系詞的選擇,雖然也有關(guān)系詞最一般的用法,但更多的是對(duì)特殊關(guān)系詞的考查??偟恼f(shuō)來(lái)有以下幾點(diǎn)需要注意:
    ① 關(guān)系詞的使用:一看先行詞,二看關(guān)系詞在從句中的作用。關(guān)系詞的選擇依據(jù)在于從句中所作的成分,先行詞在從句中作主、定、賓語(yǔ)時(shí),選擇關(guān)系代詞(who, whom, that, which, whose);先行詞在從句中作狀語(yǔ)時(shí),應(yīng)選擇關(guān)系副詞(where 地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ),when 時(shí)間狀語(yǔ),why 原因狀語(yǔ)),如3)和7)。
    7)I will not forget the ten years______ we both spent in the little village.
    A.when
    B.during which
    C.which
    D.in which
    答案:C
    (雖然先行詞時(shí)為表示時(shí)間的詞匯the ten years,但是the ten yeas在后面的定語(yǔ)從句中作spent的賓語(yǔ),因此應(yīng)當(dāng)用關(guān)系代詞which來(lái)引導(dǎo)這個(gè)定語(yǔ)從句,而不是關(guān)系副詞when.)
    3)My vacation begins next Tuesday,______ I will leave for Florida.(1999.6)
    A.which
    B.that
    C.while
    D.when
    答案:D
    (先行詞next Tuesday在后面的定語(yǔ)從句中作狀語(yǔ),因此應(yīng)當(dāng)用關(guān)系副詞when來(lái)引導(dǎo)這個(gè)定語(yǔ)從句。)
    在此基礎(chǔ)上熟記幾個(gè)常用的固定句式,如:
    the same … as
    such … as
    當(dāng)看到先行詞前有the same 或such修飾時(shí),可直接從選項(xiàng)中找as,選擇就變得比較簡(jiǎn)單,這時(shí)用不著考慮先行詞是人還是物。
    ② 關(guān)系詞在句中作定語(yǔ),應(yīng)當(dāng)用關(guān)系詞whose,如2):
    2)The investigation______ will soon be published, was made by John.(1998.6)
    A.at which the results B.the results on which
    C.whose results D.at whose results.
    答案:C
    同學(xué)們應(yīng)該熟悉關(guān)系詞作定語(yǔ)時(shí)的各種變體,作定語(yǔ)的關(guān)系詞可有以下變體,試比較:
    the office whose windows are broken
    the office the windows of which are broken
    the office of which the windows are broken
    上面的6)題就屬于the windows of which這種形式:
    6)A curve is a line______ no part is straight and which has no angle.
    A.that B.whose C.in which D.of which
    答案:D
    先行詞是人時(shí),同樣也可有這三種形式,如:
    the professor whose car was stolen
    the professor the car of whom was stolen
    the professor of whom the car was stolen
    ③注意"介詞 + which/whom"的結(jié)構(gòu)作關(guān)系詞
    從三級(jí)考試對(duì)定語(yǔ)從句的測(cè)試來(lái)看,主要考查的是介詞的選擇。"介詞 + which/whom"主要有以下幾種情況:
    A. 介詞是句中短語(yǔ)搭配的一部分,如1)和8):
    1)Before her marriage, she spent a considerable time in that very part of Shanghai,she belong.(1998.6)
    A.Which
    B.to where
    C.to which
    D.at which
    答案:C
    ("屬于"要用belong to,關(guān)系代詞在句中作賓語(yǔ),同時(shí)定語(yǔ)從句以介詞結(jié)尾,因此把介詞提前,形成to which she belong的結(jié)構(gòu)。 )
    8)The grass______many animals live is abundant here.(2003.4)
    A.by which B.with which C.on which D.of which
    答案:C
    再如:
    We need a chairman ______.
    A.for whom everyone has confidence
    B.in whom everyone has confidence
    C.who everyone has confidence of
    D.whom everyone has confidence on
    答案:B
    (表示"信任某人"要用have confidence in somebody,所以作定語(yǔ),應(yīng)該用a chairman in whom … has confidence.)
    B."部分 + of + 整體名詞"的結(jié)構(gòu),該結(jié)構(gòu)作關(guān)系詞也就是 "部分名詞 + of which/whom"的結(jié)構(gòu)。
    該結(jié)構(gòu)的使用應(yīng)注意兩點(diǎn),一是注意定語(yǔ)從句與并列句的分別,如:
    5)The United States is composed of fifty states,
    A
    two of those are separated from the others by land or water.
    B C D
    (2000.6)
    答案:B
    再如:
    He invited many scientists to his birthday party, many of ______ were his old classmates.
    A.whom
    B.them
    C.which
    D.that
    答案:A
    這里很自然地會(huì)有many of whom 與many of them的選擇。
    C.在大多數(shù)情況下,要看關(guān)系詞與先行詞之間的關(guān)系,以確定選擇什么樣的介詞,如10):
    10)The seventeenth century was one which many significant
    A
    advances were made in both science and philosophy.(2003.11)
    B C D
    答案:A
    ④ 注意as引導(dǎo)的非限制性定語(yǔ)從句的用法
    as引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句時(shí),可置于句首,也可置于句尾,表示"正如……".如9):
    9)______is known to all, too much smoking will cause lung cancer.(2003.11)
    A.That
    B.It
    C.As
    D.What
    答案:C
    再如:The British are not so familiar with different cultures and other ways of doing things,______ is often the case in other countries.
    A.as
    B.what
    C.so
    D.that
    答案:A
    ______ might be expected, the response to the question was very mixed.
    A.As
    B.That
    C.It
    D.What
    答案:A
    一般as引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句時(shí),其先行詞為整個(gè)主句。which引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句,其先行詞也可以是主句或主句中的一部分。
    ⑤ 注意先行詞為時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)或原因時(shí),關(guān)系詞的選用。如果用when, where 或why,關(guān)系詞在從句中應(yīng)該是作狀語(yǔ),否則的話則應(yīng)該用which/that等。如上面7)中:
    7)I will not forget the ten years______we both spent in the little village.(2001.6)
    A.when
    B.during which
    C.which
    D.in which
    [答疑編號(hào)10010614:針對(duì)該題提問(wèn)]
    答案:C
    先行詞作spent的賓語(yǔ),只能用which.
    再如:
    I've never been to Beijing, but it is the place ______.
    A.where I'd like to visit
    B.in which I'd like to visit
    C.I most want to visit
    D.that I want to visit it most
    答案:D
    先行詞在從句中visit的賓語(yǔ),關(guān)系詞不能用where,而只能是that/which.
    ⑥注意定語(yǔ)從句與同位語(yǔ)從句的區(qū)別。如:
    There are signs ______ restaurants are becoming more popular with families.
    A.that
    B.which
    C.in which
    D.whose
    答案:A
    由于signs與后面的restaurants沒(méi)有修飾和被修飾關(guān)系,所以whose不對(duì),如果是定語(yǔ)從句,關(guān)系詞代替signs,而從句中不需要該詞。所以這里不是定語(yǔ)從句而是同位語(yǔ)從句,從句表示sign的內(nèi)容。
    再如:
    The fact______ he does so in so short period of time challenges explanation.(2003.4)
    A.why
    B.that
    C.what
    D.which
    答案:B
    Would the news______ he failed to pass the exam bother you?(2003.4)
    A.which
    B.that
    C.of which
    D.on which
    答案:B
    ⑦先行詞為reason時(shí),關(guān)系詞用why,先行詞為 the way時(shí),關(guān)系詞用that或in which.例如:
    That is the reason______ Ann could not do her part of the job.(1992.6)
    A.that
    B.of
    C.which
    D.why
    答案:D
    In his latest article Tom criticize the way which the war
    A B C
    being handled.(1997.6)
    D
    答案:C
    ⑧ 定語(yǔ)從句中的插入語(yǔ)
    有時(shí)候,在定語(yǔ)從句的先行詞和謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞之間會(huì)插入一個(gè)小句或者一個(gè)副詞短語(yǔ),這樣就會(huì)造成理解上的困難。我們?cè)谧鲱}時(shí)只要把這些插入語(yǔ)刪除,然后按照定語(yǔ)從句的語(yǔ)法規(guī)則去做就可以了。如4)、11)
    4)This is the sportsman whom everyone says will win the
    A B C
    first prize at the Winter Olympic Games.(1999.6)
    D
    答案:B
    11)Helen was much kinder to her youngest child than she was to the others,______ , [of course], made the others jealous.(2005.4)
    A.who
    B.what
    C.that
    D.which
