1.who 指人,在定语从句中作主语或宾语。

Football is a game which is liked by most boys. 足球是大多数男孩所喜欢的运动。
This is the pen (which) he bought yesterday. 这是他昨天买的钢笔。
4.that 指人时,相当于who 或whom;指物时,相当于which.。在定语从句中作主语或宾语,作宾语时常可省略。
He is the man that/who lives next door. 他就是住在隔壁的那个人。
Where is the man (that/whom) I saw this morning? 我今天早上看到的那个人在哪儿?

注意:指物时,常用以下结构来代替:
The house whose windows are broken is empty.
=The house the windows of which are broken is empty.
=The house of which the windows are broken is empty.
注意:whose+n.=the+n.+of which=of which+the+n.
6.as 当先行词受so, such, the same 修饰时使用。 如:
I’ve never heard such stories as he tells. 我从未听过像他讲的这样的故事。
He is not such a fool as he looks. 他可不像他看上去的那样傻。
This is the same dictionary as I lost last week. 这部词典跟我上星期丢失的一样。
注意:当先行词受the same 修饰时,偶尔也用 that引导定语从句,但与as引导的定语从句意思有区别。
如:
She wore the same dress that she wore at Mary’s wedding.
她穿着她在玛丽婚礼上穿过的同一条连衣裙。
She wore the same dress as her younger sister wore. 她穿着跟她妹妹所穿的一样的连衣裙。
因此,the same...as... 指同一类或相似的事物
the same...that... 指同一个事物

He is not the man (that) he seems.
二. 限制性定语从句只用which的情况
1.引导限定性定语从句(不用逗号分隔),先行词指物,对句子意思的表达起着关键作用。

在定语从句中who和that指代人时常可以通用,但在下列情况中只能用who,而不能用that。
1.先行词是one, ones和anyone时,宜用who。

解|题|技|巧
1.定语从句是形容词性的,它用来修饰名词或代词;
2.掌握定语从句的分类(限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句)和引导词的特点(关系代词作成分、关系副词只能充当状语)及引导词的使用限定;
3.在选择引导词时,遵循三字原则(断:断句,划分好主句和从句;找:找准先行词;放:将引导词放入从句中,同时要看好从句是否缺少成分,再选择引导词的类别
知识点03 “介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句
1. “介词+关系代词”引导定语从句时,介词的宾语只能用which或whom,且不能省略。
Some experts think reading is the fundamental skill upon which school education depends.
一些专家认为阅读是学校教育所依赖的基本技能。
Wu Dong, with whom I went to the concert, enjoyed it very much.
和我一起去听音乐会的吴东,非常喜欢这次音乐会。
注:在这种结构中,介词与先行词组成短语,在从句中充当句子成分,因此介词的选用时受到一定限制的,仍然根据先行词与介词的搭配关系而定。
2. “不定代词/数词/形容词比较级或最高级+of which/whom”引导的定语从句,表示部分与整体关系。如:some, any, none, all, both, neither, many, most, each, few等代词或者数词或分数,百分比加上of which或of whom来修饰或限定先行词。

Many young people,most of whom were welleducated,headed for remote regions to chase their dreams.
很多年轻人都去了偏远地区追求自己的梦想,他们中大部分都受过良好的教育。
3. 在定语从句中,whose修饰物时可以换为“the+名词+of which”;修饰人时,可以换为“the+名词+of whom”。
The newlybuilt café, whose walls (=the walls of which) are painted light green,is really a peaceful place for us,especially after hard work.
这家新建成的咖啡馆,墙被刷成了浅绿色,对我们来说,真是一个安静的地方,特别是在辛苦工作后。
I live next door to a couple whose children (=the children of whom) often make a lot of noise.
我住在一对夫妻的隔壁,他们的孩子经常制造噪音。
易|错|点|拨
1.含有介词的短语动词一般不拆开,介词仍放在短语动词的后面。如:look for, look after, take care of 等。
This is the watch (which/that) I am looking for. (正)
This is the watch for which I am looking. (误)
2.介词后的关系代词不可用that和who,若介词放在关系代词前,关系代词指人时只可用whom,指物时只可用which;关系代词是所有格时用whose。
The man with whom you talked just now is my neighbour. (正)
The man with that/who you talked just now is my neighbour. (误)

二、阅读理解
The word “adulting” started as a kind of joke—whenever a millennial (千禧一代) would do something as an adult does, this was an act of “adulting”. However, now, millennials clearly need training in being an adult.
Rachel Flehinger has founded an Adulting School, which includes online classes on simple sewing (缝纫), problems solving and cooking. The cause for such classes is that many millennials haven’t left childhood homes—in America 34 percent of adults aged 18 to 34 still lived with their parents in 2015, up from 26 percent 10 years before. There’s a good deal of truth to this. If you’re living at home, with Mom and Dad doing their best to spoil (溺爱) you, you’re less likely to know how to wash clothes, cook or make the bed. Dependency leads to enervation. Over time, you are unable to adult.
But living at home doesn’t necessarily bring dependency. Back in 1940, 30 percent of 25-to-29-year-olds lived at home with parents or grandparents. But they were adulting. Parents expected their kids to do housework, and to prepare for life. Then, what’s the real problem now?
Instead of blaming (责备) living at home, we have to blame our style of parenting. The truth is that we’ve simply become lazier as parents. We’re more likely to let our kids lie on a sofa than tell them to get a job. We don’t push our kids to build families of their own, because life cost has increased. Then the question is how we can encourage young people to “adult” in such a situation.
1. What is the purpose of showing the data (数据) in paragraph 2?
A. To show that millennials liked to live with their parents.
B. To show that the Adulting School became popular in 2015.
C. To show that more adults still depended on their parents.
D. To show that the online courses were necessary to learn.
1. Which of the following can best explain “enervation”?
A. Emergency B. Argument C. Tension D. Weakness
1. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the last two paragraphs?
A. Living at home certainly leads to dependency.
B. Parents are too lazy to do housework.
C. We often tell kids to get a job.
D. Kids are not pushed to start their own families.
1. What does this passage mainly talk about?
A. What the life of the millennials is like.
B. Why millennials need adulting training.
C. How parents encourage millennials to “adult”.
D. How parents educated kids in the past.
【答案】CDDB
【解析】本文是说明文,禧一代的孩子接受着父母的宠爱,他们很多人不能独立生活,事实上,是父母的养育方式导致孩子不能独立。孩子需要的是成为成年的培训。
1.推理判断题。根第二段The cause for such classes is that many millennials haven’t left childhood homes—in America 34 percent of adults aged 18 to 34 still lived with their parents in 2015, up from 26 percent 10 years before. 他开设此类课程的原因是,许多千禧一代没有高开重年时的家一在美国,2015年有34%的18岁至34岁的成年人仍与父母住在一起,而10年前这比例为26%。根据此处的数据显示,开设课程的原因是千德一代的人没有离开重年的家,而且这个数据相对于以前有所增长,所以数据显示了更多了成年人仍然依赖于父母。故选C项。
2.词义猜测题。根据第二段Dependency leads to enervation. Over time, you are unable to adult.久而久之,你就无法成年,根据后一句的解释,可以推测是依赖导致了软弱,所以不能成年,所以换线词为“软弱。故选D项。
3.细节理解题。根据最后一段We don’t push our kids to build families of their own, because life cost has increased. 我们不强迫我们的孩子建立他们自己的家庭,因为生活成本增加了,可知孩子不被催促去成家,故选D项。
4.主旨大意题。根据第一段 However, now, millennials clearly need training in being an adult.然而,现在,千禧一代显然需要接受成人培训。第一段引出了本文的主旨,最后一段Instead of blaming (责备) living at home, we have to blame our style of parenting. 与其责备住在家里,我们还不如责备我们的养育方式。最后一段说明了导致千德一代不能够成人的原因,所以整茼文章的主旨是千禧一代需要接受成人培训的原因。故选B项。

一、任务型阅读
A10-year-old girl Callie lived with her parents and older brother, Ben, on a quiet farm. Though she was small and thin, she loved helping with housework, especially feeding the horses in their big barn (畜棚). One side of the barn housed the horse stalls (马厩), while the other side was piled with hay bales (干草) for feeding.
One afternoon, Callie went into the barn to feed the horses. As she walked towards the tall stacks of hay. She suddenly stopped. A tiny, weak sound came through the dusty air. Meow... meow...
Her heart jumped. A kitten must be trapped in the hay! Breathing hard, she ran back to find Ben and her father. “Dad! Ben! Come quick! A kitten is stuck in the hay!” she called urgently. Ben sighed, putting down his tools. Her father looked doubtful. “Probably just the wind, Callie,” he said gently. But they followed her to the barn.
They stood quietly near the hay stacks, listening. The barn was silent. “Hear anything?” Ben asked. Their father shook his head. “Nothing, sweetheart. Maybe it was just a mouse. Don’t worry about it.” Disappointed, Callie watched them leave.
After dinner, Callie slipped back to the barn. She stood still, listening attentively. And there it was again! Meow... meow... Weaker now, but clear. She raced back to the house. Her father was watching TV. “Dad, please!” she begged. “I heard it again! It is a kitten! Please, just come and check one more time?” He looked unwilling but saw the real worry in her eyes. “Alright, one last look.” He returned a few minutes later, “Callie, I listened hard. All I heard was an owl outside. No kitten. Try not to worry.” He gave her a tired smile. “Thanks for checking, Dad.” Callie whispered, though she still felt uneasy.
That night, Callie woke up suddenly. The weak cries filled her mind. She couldn’t rest. Quietly, she put on her coat, took a flashlight and slipped out. Inside the barn, near the hay stacks, Callie held her breath, listening with full attention. Then, it came: Meow... meow... Her flashlight beam swept across the bales. There! Near the bottom of a tall stack, she spotted a tiny movement between two big bales. She rushed over and pushed the bales again, but they wouldn’t move. “I have no choice but to get help!” Callie thought to herself.

一些专家认为阅读是学校教育所依赖的基本技能。
Wu Dong, with whom I went to the concert, enjoyed it very much.
和我一起去听音乐会的吴东,非常喜欢这次音乐会。
注:在这种结构中,介词与先行词组成短语,在从句中充当句子成分,因此介词的选用时受到一定限制的,仍然根据先行词与介词的搭配关系而定。
2. “不定代词/数词/形容词比较级或最高级+of which/whom”引导的定语从句,表示部分与整体关系。如:some, any, none, all, both, neither, many, most, each, few等代词或者数词或分数,百分比加上of which或of whom来修饰或限定先行词。

很多年轻人都去了偏远地区追求自己的梦想,他们中大部分都受过良好的教育。
3. 在定语从句中,whose修饰物时可以换为“the+名词+of which”;修饰人时,可以换为“the+名词+of whom”。

1.含有介词的短语动词一般不拆开,介词仍放在短语动词的后面。如:look for, look after, take care of 等。
This is the watch (which/that) I am looking for. (正)
This is the watch for which I am looking. (误)
2.介词后的关系代词不可用that和who,若介词放在关系代词前,关系代词指人时只可用whom,指物时只可用which;关系代词是所有格时用whose。

二、阅读理解
The word “adulting” started as a kind of joke—whenever a millennial (千禧一代) would do something as an adult does, this was an act of “adulting”. However, now, millennials clearly need training in being an adult.
Rachel Flehinger has founded an Adulting School, which includes online classes on simple sewing (缝纫), problems solving and cooking. The cause for such classes is that many millennials haven’t left childhood homes—in America 34 percent of adults aged 18 to 34 still lived with their parents in 2015, up from 26 percent 10 years before. There’s a good deal of truth to this. If you’re living at home, with Mom and Dad doing their best to spoil (溺爱) you, you’re less likely to know how to wash clothes, cook or make the bed. Dependency leads to enervation. Over time, you are unable to adult.
But living at home doesn’t necessarily bring dependency. Back in 1940, 30 percent of 25-to-29-year-olds lived at home with parents or grandparents. But they were adulting. Parents expected their kids to do housework, and to prepare for life. Then, what’s the real problem now?
Instead of blaming (责备) living at home, we have to blame our style of parenting. The truth is that we’ve simply become lazier as parents. We’re more likely to let our kids lie on a sofa than tell them to get a job. We don’t push our kids to build families of their own, because life cost has increased. Then the question is how we can encourage young people to “adult” in such a situation.
1. What is the purpose of showing the data (数据) in paragraph 2?
A. To show that millennials liked to live with their parents.
B. To show that the Adulting School became popular in 2015.
C. To show that more adults still depended on their parents.
D. To show that the online courses were necessary to learn.
1. Which of the following can best explain “enervation”?
A. Emergency B. Argument C. Tension D. Weakness
1. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the last two paragraphs?
A. Living at home certainly leads to dependency.
B. Parents are too lazy to do housework.
C. We often tell kids to get a job.
D. Kids are not pushed to start their own families.
1. What does this passage mainly talk about?
A. What the life of the millennials is like.
B. Why millennials need adulting training.
C. How parents encourage millennials to “adult”.
D. How parents educated kids in the past.
