定语从句是指跟在一个名词或代词后,对其进行修饰限定的句子。被修饰的词叫先行词。定语从句不同于单词作定语的情况,它通常只能放在被修饰的词(先行词)后。定语从句由关系词(关系代词、关系副词)引导。
一、关系代词引导的定语从句
1. 关系代词的基本用法
关系代词
所修饰的先行词

Everything that we saw in this film was true.
I have read all the books that you lend me.
②先行词为the only, the very(正是), the right,the same等词时。

This is the first film that I have seen since I came here.
④当先行词既有人又有物时
We often talk about the persons and things that we remember.
⑤句中其他位置已出现与关系代词相同的疑问词时,应避免重复
Which is the car that has overtaken us?
只用which不用that的情况:
①关系代词前有介词时。
The garden in which a variety of flowers are planted attracts a great many visitors.
②在非限制性定语从句中。

非限制性定语从句中
as和which都可以指代前面整个主句。如果有“正如,象”的含义,并可以放在主句前,也可以放在后面,那么用as;而which引导的从句只能放主句后,并无“正如”的意思。
They won the game, as we had expected.
They won the game, which we hadn’t expected.
As is well known, he is a famous film star in the 1980s.

第四步 连句成篇
Dear Jenny,
How is your survey on mobile payment going? I'm glad I can help with it.
It's generally believed that China is the largest mobile payment market globally.Most of us are used to scanning QR codes to pay for whatever we purchase—such as books and clothes, which is a glimpse into the life of most Chinese like me and my family.
With the widespread use of mobile payment, we don't need to carry a purse or cash at all. Besides, never will we worry about getting fake notes or having to count change.In short, mobile payment has greatly changed people's lives in China.
Personally, I think mobile payment should be encouraged.First, it has won over consumers with its convenience.Another advantage is that there are often discounts if you make mobile payment, as major online payment platforms are competing to have more consumers take advantage of their service.
I hope my explanation can be of some help to you.Wish you good luck.
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua

4.定语从句分_________________________________,限制性定语从句与先行词关系较密切(句1、2、3、4、5、6、7、8)。
5._______从句与先行词之间关系较松散(句9、11)。
6.有时关系代词也可以代替_______ (句10)。
定语从句是指跟在一个名词或代词后,对其进行修饰限定的句子。被修饰的词叫先行词。定语从句不同于单词作定语的情况,它通常只能放在被修饰的词(先行词)后。定语从句由关系词(关系代词、关系副词)引导。
一、关系代词引导的定语从句
1. 关系代词的基本用法
关系代词
所修饰的先行词
在从句中所作的成分
who
人
主语、宾语
whom
人
宾语
which
物或事
主语、宾语、表语、定语
that
人或物
主语、宾语、表语
as
人、物或事
主语、宾语
whose
人或物
定语
The man who/whom you saw just now is our manager.
(先行词指人,who/whom在从句中作宾语)
Is he the man who/that wants to see you?
(who/that在从句中作主语)
Please pass me the book whose cover is green.
(先行词指物 ,whose在从句中作定语
The prosperity which/that has never been seen before appears in the countryside
(which/that在从句中作主语)
The package (which/that) you are carrying is about to come unwrapped.
(which/that在从句中作宾语 )
They talked in such simple English as children could understand.(as在从句中作宾语)
As is known to all, fish can’t live without water.(As在从句中作主语 )
2. that和which 的用法区别
只用 that 不用which的情况
①先行词为everything, nothing, something, anything等不定代词;或为all, every, no, some, any, little, much等词或被这些词修饰时时。
Everything that we saw in this film was true.
I have read all the books that you lend me.
②先行词为the only, the very(正是), the right,the same等词时。
This is the very scarf that mother has been looking for.
③先行词为序数词或形容词最高级或先行词被序数词或形容词最高级修饰时。
Shanghai is the most beautiful city that I have ever visited.
This is the first film that I have seen since I came here.
④当先行词既有人又有物时
We often talk about the persons and things that we remember.
⑤句中其他位置已出现与关系代词相同的疑问词时,应避免重复
Which is the car that has overtaken us?
只用which不用that的情况:
①关系代词前有介词时。
The garden in which a variety of flowers are planted attracts a great many visitors.
②在非限制性定语从句中。
He failed in the match, which was a pity.
3.as与which的区别:
定语
从句
区别
例句
限制性定语从句 中
名词前有such和the same修饰时,关系代词用as,不能用which
He is not such a fool as he looks.
Don’t read such books as you can’t understand.
非限制性定语从句中
as和which都可以指代前面整个主句。如果有“正如,象”的含义,并可以放在主句前,也可以放在后面,那么用as;而which引导的从句只能放主句后,并无“正如”的意思。
They won the game, as we had expected.
They won the game, which we hadn’t expected.
As is well known, he is a famous film star in the 1980s.

二、关系副词引导的定语从句
关系副词
所修饰的先行词
在从句中所作的成分
when
时间名词
时间状语
where
地点名词或抽象名词(situation、 point、 activity、 case、 stage等)
地点状语
why
原因名词
原因状语
(1)关系副词when:先行词是表示时间的名词
Do you know the date when he was born?
She went to Japan in 2015, when she was 20.
注:when可以由“介词+which”替换
She went to Japan in 2015, in which she was 20.
I will never forget the day on which I met him.
(2)关系副词where:先行词是表示地点的名词
I love Beijing, where I made so many friends.
This is the park where we often take a walk.
注:where可以由“介词+which”替换
This is the park in which we often take a walk.
Do you know the bus station at which we met each other?
当先行词为一些表示抽象地点的名词,如point, position,situation, stage, case, condition, atmosphere等时,如果引导词在从句中作状语,常用关系副词where引导定语从句。
I like the atmosphere where everyone helps each other.
We have reached the stage where we must take action.
先行词occasion意为“时机”时,用关系副词when;意为“场合”时,用关系副词where。
There came an occasion when she got promoted.
A wedding is an occasion where people get dressed up.
(3)关系副词why:先行词是reason
Do you know the reason why he cried?
注:why可以由“for+which”替换
Do you know the reason for which he cried?

4.This is the hotel__________Lucy recommended to us.
5.That’s the reason___________ he was late.
6.That’s the reason___________ he told me.
三、“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句
先行词指物:which
This is the school with which he is familiar.
先行词指人:whom
I thanked Tom from whom I got a lot of help.
关系代词前介词的选用:
依据定语从句中动词、形容词等的习惯搭配来确定。
The person to whom I gave the gift was my teacher.
依据与先行词的搭配来确定。
This is the house in which I grew up.
根据所表达的意思来确定。
The colorless gas without which we can not live is called oxygen.
注意: 有些“动词(+名词)+介词”的固定搭配,如look for, look after, call on,take care of等,不能把介词提到关系代词前。

第四步 连句成篇
Dear Jenny,
How is your survey on mobile payment going? I'm glad I can help with it.
It's generally believed that China is the largest mobile payment market globally.Most of us are used to scanning QR codes to pay for whatever we purchase—such as books and clothes, which is a glimpse into the life of most Chinese like me and my family.
With the widespread use of mobile payment, we don't need to carry a purse or cash at all. Besides, never will we worry about getting fake notes or having to count change.In short, mobile payment has greatly changed people's lives in China.
Personally, I think mobile payment should be encouraged.First, it has won over consumers with its convenience.Another advantage is that there are often discounts if you make mobile payment, as major online payment platforms are competing to have more consumers take advantage of their service.
I hope my explanation can be of some help to you.Wish you good luck.
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua
