【答案与解析】D。句意:我们生活在这样一个时代,许多事情都是在电脑上做的。这是定语从句,先行词是in an age,指的是时间,when在定语从句做时间状语,故选D。
二、介词+关系代词引导的定语从句
1. “介词+关系代词”的基本形式
“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句在英语中很常见,它既可以引导限制性定语从句,也可以引导非限制性定语从句。其中的关系代词常用的有which和whom,其最常见的形式为:介词+which/ whom、介词短语+ which。
①The engineer __________ my father works is about 60 years old.
A. to whom B. on whom C. with whom D. with which
【答案与解析】C。句意:这个我父亲与之一起工作的工程师大约60岁了。这个句子中含有一个定语从句,work with sb.是固定用法,意思是与某人一起工作,且关系词指人,故用with whom,选C。
②At last we reached a lonely village, _______ a beautiful river.
A. in front of it lay B. in front of which lay
C. in front of it laid D. in front of which lied
【答案与解析】B。先行词是a lonely village 定语从句中in front of后面缺少宾语,而且定语从句的地点状语提前,用完全倒装。lie表示“位于”的意思时,其过去式为“lay”。句意:最后我们到了一个偏僻的村子,村子前面有一条美丽的河。
2.“介词+关系代词”的变化形式
“介词+关系代词”的结构有多种变形,归纳起来主要有以下几种:
①代词+介词+关系代词
Julie was good at German, French and Russian, all of _______ she spoke fluently.
A. who B. whom C. which D. that
【答案与解析】C。此处由“代词+ of+关系代词”引导非限制性定语从句,which指代先行词German,
French and Russian。that不能引导非限制性定语从句。句意:朱莉精通德语、法语和俄语,并且说得都很流利。
②(the)+名词+介词+关系代词,该结构又可以变成介词+关系代词+(the)+名词
The newly built café, the walls of _______ are painted light green, is really a peaceful place for us, specially
after hard work.
A. that B. it C. what D. which
【答案与解析】D。选D定语从句表示咖啡屋的墙。The walls of which(指代咖啡屋) =of which the walls =whose walls句意:其墙面被漆成为淡绿色那座新建的咖啡屋,对我们来说,特别是辛劳以后,真是个祥和的地方。
③数词+介词+关系代词
There are more than 50 students in my class, 26 of _______ are girls.
A. them B. which C. whom D. those
【答案与解析】C。由于先行词是“50 students”,表示人,故用whom。26 of whom=and 26 of them。句意:我班有50多个学生,其中26个是女生。
④the+形容词比较级(最高级)+介词+关系代词
There are two buildings, _______ stands nearly a hundred feet high.
A. the larger B. the larger of them C. the larger one that D. the larger of which
【答案与解析】D。the larger of which=and the larger of the two buildings。句意:有两栋建筑,其中较大的一栋建筑有一百英尺高。
⑤介词+whose+名词
The old farmer _______ farm we spent a happy weekend was spellbound by Chinese culture.
A. on whom B. who C. on whose D. whose
【答案与解析】C。句意:在他的农村我们度过一个快乐的周末的老农民被中国文化迷住了。这里是定语从句,先行词是the old farmer,定语从句中完整的是:we spent a happy weekend on his farm,缺少的是on his,用on whose,所以选C。
注意:多数情况下:介词的判断主要是根据定语从句中谓语动词与先行词的搭配或是根据定语从句中
某个名词与与先行词的搭配容而定。
▲Can you lend me the book _______ you talked the other day?
A. about which B. which C. about that D. that
【答案与解析】A。“谈到某事物”应说talk about sth。about是介词,其后要用which作宾语,不能用that。
▲Water, _______ we cannot live, exists in the form of liquid, gas or solid.
A. from which B. on which C. by which D. without which
【答案与解析】D。先行词是water,根据句意:我们的生存不能缺少的水,是以液体,气体或固体存在的。定语从句中缺少介词without water,用without which引导定语从句,选D。
