高考常考的定语从句八大类

关系副词where, when, why引导定语从句时，它们分别在从句中充当地点时间、原因状语。如：

1.—Is that the small town you often refer to?

—Right, just the one _________ you know I used to work for years. (福建卷)

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

2. If a shop has chairs_________ women can park their men , women will spend more time in the shop. (上海卷)

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

3. I walked in our garden, _________Tome and Jim were tying a big sign onto one of the trees. (辽宁卷)

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

4. I work in a business _________almost everyone is waiting for a great chance. (湖南卷)

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

解析：第1—4 题均选where，表示“……的地方”，引导定语从句，表示地点。

第五种类型：考查whose 引导的定语从句

此时要注意三点：(1) whose 引导的定语从句，其后应紧跟名词，构成“whose+名词”；(2) whose 引导的定语从句，其先行词不仅可以指人，还可以指物；(3) whose 引导的定语从句指物时，可用 of which 代替whose，但词序不同，即whose+名词=the +名词+of which。如：

1. Last month, part of Southeast Asia was struck by floods, from _________ effects the people are still suffering. (天津卷)

A. that               B. whose             C. those               D. what

2. George Orwell, _________was Eric Arthur, wrote many political novels and essays. (北京卷)

A. the real name                             B. what his real name

C. his real name                             D. whose real name

解析：这两道题考查由whose引导的定语从句，whose在题中表示所属关系。

第六种类型：考查分隔式定语从句

即所考查的定语从句与先行词之间插有其他修饰语。做题时应撇开其中的修饰语，直接将先行词与定语从句联系起来。如：

1. The film brought the hours back to me _________ I was taken good care of in that far-away village. (全国卷)

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

2. It was an exciting moment for these football fans this year, _________ for the first time in years their team won the World Cup. (北京春季卷)

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

解析：第1题选C，先行词是the hours，back to me 是插入先行词与定语从句之间的干扰成分；第2题选D，定语从句修饰的先行词是an exciting moment。
