本文目录:
一.定语从句原理。
从一.可以推导出二.至五.的绝大多数内容。
二. who(m)/which引导定语从句。
三.如何确定“介词+which/whom定从”中的介词呢?
四. whose与of who(m)/which引导定语从句的对比。
五.当先行词是“时间/地点/原因/方式”时,如何确定引导词?
什么是定语从句?修饰名词/代词的从句叫做定语从句。被修饰的名词/代词叫做先行词。
如,This is the boy who won the first prize.(This is the boy.是主句。who won the first prize是定语从句。the boy是先行词。who是引导词。)
一.定语从句原理
学习定语从句,首先要搞清楚把简单句变为定语从句的三个步骤。
其次,在此基础上,搞清楚定语从句的先行词与引导词的三种关系。
最终,把以上两块内容汇总为“定语从句的先行词与引导词总表”。
下边具体讲解。
1.如何把简单句变为定语从句?分为三个步骤:同指,替换,前移。
①同指。找出两句中指代同一事物的名词或代词。(并根据句意确定该把哪句变为定语从句)。
②替换。用疑问词替换这个名词/代词(或含有这个名词/代词的结构)。
③前移。把疑问词(或含有疑问词的结构)提前到句首。
例句(两个简单句变为“主句+定语从句”)
Step①This is the house. He lived in the house. (两个简单句)
Step②This is the house. He lived in which (替换the house)
Step②This is the house. He lived where (替换in the house)
(可见,可以替换名词,也可以替换“介词+名词”)
Step③This is the house which he lived in. (把which提前)
Step③This is the house in which he lived. (把in which提前)
(可见,可以把代词提前,也可以把“介词+代词”提前)
Step③This is the house where he lived. (把where提前)
(可见,先行词是名词时,引导词可能是代词,也可能是副词,这得根据所作成分而定。)
2.先行词与引导词的三种关系。先行词(不管是名词还是代词),总是名词性的,而相应的引导词则有三种可能:名词性代词,形容词性代词,副词。见下表,
先行词
引导词
①
名词性
名词性代词(who(m)/which/that),作主语/宾语/表语
②
名词性
形容词性代词(whose),作定语
③
名词性
副词(when/where/why),作状语
为什么有时先行词与引导词的词性不对等呢(如,先行词是名词,而引导词是副词)?因为,类似于“对划线部分提问”,对含有名词的结构提问,而非对名词提问。如,先行词是the house,对the house 提问,则引导词用which,对含有名词的结构in the house提问,则引导词用where。所以,引导词并非只代替名词,而是代替名词或含有名词的结构。分为三种情况:①名词,用代词代替。②“介词+名词”,用副词代替。③名词所有格,用whose代替。本节的二/三/四/五/六,其实反复讲的就是这个意思。
例句(先行词与引导词的三种关系)
●①This is the house.He lived in the house.→This is the house which he lived in.(引导词是名词性代词)(对名词提问。he lived in the house→he lived in which→which he lived in)
●②This is the house.The house’s roof is under repair.→This is the house whose roof is under repair.(引导词是形容词性代词)(对名词所有格提问。the house’s roof is under repair→whose roof is under repair)
●③This is the house.He lived in the house.→This is the house where he lived.(引导词是副词)(对介词短语提问。he lived in the house→he lived where→where he lived)
