in which介词+关系代词引导定语从句

1)在定语从句中，当关系代词作介词的宾语时，可以把介词移到关系代词的前面；但为了使关系代词紧跟它所修饰的先行词，也可以把介词放在从句中有关动词的后面。如：

This is the room in which we lived last year．

（或：This is the room which we lived in last year．）

这就是我们去年居住的房子。

2)“介词＋关系代词”结构中的关系代词只能用whom或which，不可用 that。如：

The old Olympic Games from which the modern games came began around the year 776 BC in Greece ．

古代奥运会于公元前776年开始于希腊，现代奥运会就起源于那里。

What did the football player to whom you were talking want？

你刚才和他谈话的那个足球运动员想要什么？

当介词跟在动词之后，不前移时，关系代词可以用that。

The pencil with which he was writing broke ．（＝The pencil which ／ that he was writing with broke ．）他写字用的铅笔折了。

The competitor to whom I was talking yesterday won the game ．（＝ The competitor whom ／that I was talking to yesterday won the game ．我昨天和他谈话的那个选手赢得了比赛。

3)“介词＋关系代词”结构在定语从句中可以作状语；并可以修饰别的名词一同作状语，此时的关系代词在定语从句中作定语。如：

I called him by the wrong name ， for which mistake I apologized．我叫错了他的名字，为此我向他表示了歉意。（定语）

He works in a middle school，in front of which there is a river．他在一所中学工作，中学前面有一条河。（状语）

4)含有介词的短语动词一般不拆开，即不能转化成“介词＋关系代词”结构，介词仍放在动词的后面。如：

Is this the book which she was looking for？

这是她在寻找的那本书吗？（不说…for which she was looking）

The babies whom the nurses are looking after are very healthy．

保育员们照看的那些孩子们很健康。（不说…after whom the nurses are looking）
