1、重点三通 定语从句从句(重点三定语从句)I.考点分析定语从句主要考点是关系代词,尤其是that,as,介词+which的用法。II.知识点定语从句也称形容词性从句,在整个句子中起定 语的作用。定语从句通常置于它所修饰的名词和 代词之后,这种名词和代词被称为先行词。引导定语从句的关联词为关系代词和关系副词。其中,关系代词有who,whom,whose,that,whiqh等,主从句中可作主语、宾语,定 语等;笑系副词有when,where,why等词,在定语从句中只用作状语。其中:1.whoz whom,whose藉人,在从句中分 别作主语(在非正式英语中 也可作宾语,但可省略)、宾语和定语;w

4、when the weather may be better.2)He has reached the point where a change is needed.3)That is no reason wh should leave.定语从句可分为限定性定语从句和非限定性定语 从句两种。限定性定语从句一般紧跟在先行词的 后面修饰、限定先行词,它与先行词之间没有逗 号,去掉后会影响全句意思的完整性。非限定性 定语从句用来解释、说明先行词或主句所指内容,与先行词之间用逗号隔开。1)I like to chat with John,who is a clever fellow.2)Water,w
5、hich is a clear liquid,has many uses.BOBHL定语从句中的四级考点:工在下列情形下只能用that,而不能用which。-1)序数词或最高级形容词修饰先行词时:a.The first English novel that I read was the Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens.b.Tom is the most diligent students that I have ever known.2)先行词是不定代词或被AH,everything,nothing anything,something等不定代词修

7、as)was reported in the newspaper.The dog,which(as)is black,is running toward the strange man.b.As is known,the director of the company is going to come to our branch to have a inspection of the production here.3.which和whom在从句中作介词的宾语 which和whom在从句中作介词的宾语时,介词一般放 在二者之前,也可放在从句原来的位置上,在含有介词的 固定词组中介词只能放在原来

29、见。1.主语从句 工)主语从句在句子中充当主语,句子的谓语动词用第三 人称单数。如:Why he refused to work with you is still mystery.Whoever comes is welcome.2)主语从句前的that不能省略,仅起连接作用,有时为 了保持句子平衡,that从句后置,而由it作形式主语。如:That he became a lawyer may have been due to his mothers influence.It is not true that he has moved to New York.2.宾语从句2.宾语从句在句子
30、中充当宾语,如:I dont know where the sound came from.Dont be satisfied with what you haveachieved.3.表语从句 3.当从句放在系动词be,look,remain,seem等后 即构成表语从句。The trouble is that I have lost his address.It seemed that the night would never end.4.同位语从句 1)同位语从句是对与之同位的名词中心词作进一步解释,能 接名词桂从句的常见名词有:idea,fact,news,belief,hope,e
31、vidence,opinion,problem,truth,answer,proposal,theory,decision,discovery,problem,thought,understanding 等。The news that he has passed the examination is exciting.2)同位语从句与定语从句的区别在于:定语从句是对先行词 加以修饰、限制,而同位语从句时说明名词中心词的具体内 容;that在定语丛句中充当成分,为关系代词,而在同位语 从句中不撤任行成分,仅癌连有祚用。如:The fact that we talked about is very
32、 important.(定语从句)The fact that he succeeded in the experiment pleased everybody.(同位语从句)5.whether与if在名词性从句中的用法区别 if一般只用于引导宾语从句,而whether可引导包括宾语从句在内 的其他名词从句。-1)连词whether引导的主语从句,表语从句不能用if来替换。Whether he will attend the meeting is uncertain.The question is whether he will come.2)宾语从句中,whether常与or not搭酉己,可

35、he distance D)the distance is C)题意:奥林匹克马拉松赛跑为26英里385码,约为 从马拉松到矍典的距离。解析:名词短语approximatelrthe distance from Marathon to Athens 南乘进一步说明26 miles and 385 yards究竟有多丧,在语法上叫做同 位语。若选择B)或D)项,则前后两句之间应有or或 and之类的连接词。3.By success I dont mean_usuallythought of when that word is used.(96/06/49)A)what is B)that we
36、C)as you D)all is A)题意:我所说的“成功”一词,并不是指我们使用它 时通常所想到的东西。解析:主句中谓语动词mean缺少宾语,从句中的谓语动 词thought of缺少主语,因此,划线部分所需要的词既 弓导宾语从句,又在宾语从句中充当主语,在这种情况下,应使用what连接勾手。4.The mere fact most people believenuclear war would be madness does not mean that it will not occur.(97/06/53)A)what B)which C)that D)why C)题意:大多数人认为核
37、战争是疯狂行为,但这一点并 示簧味着核战争不会发生。解析:“the mere fact”与that引导的从句是同位语。从句中基本成分齐全,故不能使用which构成定语从句。C正确。5.Although Anne is happy with her success she wonders_will happen to her private life.(00/01/50)A)this B)it C)what D)that C)题意:Anne对取得的成功感到高兴,但是不知道她的私人生活 会发生什么事。-解析:全句是X主从复合句,由although引出的是让步状语从句,主句中wonder又带有一个宾
38、语从句。暇据主句的意思空格中应填入 表示疑问意思的词。6.We agreed to accept_they thought was thebest tourist guide.(00/01/53)A)whichever B)whoever C)whatever D)whomever-B)题意:我们同意接受任何人,只要他们认为是最好的导游。解析:宾语从句。分析句子结构,空格处应作accept的宾语,同时 作was的主语,且表不入,法以应选B项。例如:Whoever is responsible for this will be punished.对此事负有责任的人 要受到处罚。D)whomeve
39、r是whoever的宾格,相当于 anyone whom在句中只能作宾语用。例如:You may invite whomever you like.你喜欢的住行人都司以邀请。7.There are signs_restaurants arebecoming more popular with families.(00/06/37)A)that B)which C)in which D)whose A)题意:有迹象表明,饭店越来越受到家庭的青睐。解析:同位语从句。根据句意,从句只是对“signs”做 解释说明,并未对这个词起限定修饰作用,也就是说,“signs”在从句中并不作任何成分。由此,我们
40、可以看 出这里的从句应该是同位语从句,而不是定语从句。8.The basic features of the communication process are identified in one question:Who says_through what channel to whom?(01/01/52)A)what B)when C)how D)such A)题意:交际过程的基本特征可以归结为一个问题:谁 说了什么,通过何种途径,对象是谁?解析:特殊句式。本题空格处应该做句子的宾语。how 是疑问副词,不能作say的宾语;when表示“什么时 候”,不合句意;such作代词是指上下文中
41、提到的事物,代入句中不合适。9.The mother didnt know who_forthe broken glass.(02/01/64)A)blamed B)to blame C)be blamed D)would blame B)题意:这位母亲不知道该怪谁打破了玻璃。解析:宾语从句省略。to blame表示被动意义,这是 blame的一个特殊用法。blame sb.for sth,“囱 为.而责备某人“;blame sth.on/uponsb,“把归咎于某人”。10.How is it_your roommatesrequest and yours are identical?(02
42、/06/50)A)if B)so C)what D)that D)题意:你室友的请求和你的是一样的,这怎么回事?解析:主语从句。这是一道略带口语化的考题。n在题句 中充当形式主语。由that引导的句子构成主语从句,作 句中真正主语。11.They always give the vacant seats to comes first.(02/12/51)A)whoever B)whomever C)who D)whom A)题意:他们把空座给最早来的人,不管他是 谁。解析:在特殊疑问词后加上-ever表示“不管”,此处要填的词作“comes”的主语,应是主格,B)、C)都是宾格,不可以。其实C
43、)也可说得过 去,但不如A)好。重点五状语从句重点五状语从句-I.考点分析状语从句与连词有密切的关系。重中 之重是as作“虽然”时候的用法,要 把修饰语提前到从句开头,但主谓并不倒装。如:Old as she was,she was quiet energetic.II.知识点1.时间状语从句1)常见关联词有 when,whenever,while,as,before,after 等。2)0注意notuntil正常结构、倒装结构、强调结构、和until置于句首的用法。He didnt go to sleep until he had finished his homework.(正常结构)No

45、t,immediately,directly,instantly 4)其他表示时间的短语还有:every time,next time,the dayo2.地点状语从句 2.地点状语从句通常由where,wherever弓 I 导 如:Where thway.e is a3.原因状语从句 1)通常由because,as,since弓I导,三者区另!J:because语气最强,重在交待原由,以why引导的 疑问句只能because用来回答;其前可用only,just等 词施词;才用在工t isthat强词句型中。如:You shouldnt get angry just because some
46、 people speak ill of you.as 一词口气最弱,表示明显的原因。如:As shewas in a hurry,she left her key in the car.since表示人们已知的事实,所以常译成“既然 如:Since everyone is here,lets get started.另外,for属并列连词,不能位于句首,是对前一分句加 以解释或说明。如:It must have rained last night,for the yard is wet.2)与since相近,seeing that,now that,considering that,give
47、n that 都有“鉴宇某个事实 考虑到”的意念,此外,in that,not that.but that.,on the grounds that 均可表示原因。4.目的状语从句目的状语从句引导词有so that,in order thatz(从 句中常有情态助动词may/might,shall/should,will/would,can/could)in case,for fear that,lest,(从句中常有should,might等助动 词)for the purpose that等。5.结果状语从句结果状语从句引导词有so that,such that,so.that,such.
48、that,to the degree/extent that等。6.条件状语从句条件状语从句分为真实和非真实两种。(非真实条件状语 从句详见虚拟语气部分)引导词有if,unless,as/so long as,once,in case,provided/providing that,suppose,supposing that,on condition that7.方式状语从句方式状语从句弓I导词有as,as if,as though,the way.如:Do it the way you were taught.8.比较状语从句详见比较部分9.让步状语从句让步状语从句弓I导词有though,
