定语从句  有关系代词或关系副词引导用来修饰主句中的某一个
名词或代词并起定语作用的从句,叫定语从句。定语
从句所修饰的词叫先行词,从句跟在先行词后面。
  定语从句的构成方法是:关系代词或副词+陈述句语
序,关系代词有:who, whom, whose, which, 
that, as等;关系副词有when, where, why等。关系
代词有双重功能,一方面代表前面所修饰的先行词,
把从句与先行词连接起来;另一方面引导出从句并在
从句中充当某种句子成分。
  The number of people who/that lost homes 
reached as many as 250,000.
  It sounded like a train which/that was going 
under my house.介词+which/whom引导的定语从句用于正式
场合。在这一结构中,关系代词which/whom
做介词的宾语。
• 当先行词是人时,用介词+whom引导定语从句,例
如:They may start as a group of high-school 
students, for whom practising their music in 
someone’s house is the first step to fame.
• 当先行词是物时,用介词+which引导定语从句,
而且只能加which,不能加that,例如:
They produced a new record in 1996,  with which 
they  celebrated their former time as a real band.     关系副词when, where, why 和
      介词+which之间的关系
      关系副词when, where, why可以用适当的
介词+which来替代。
如:when=in/on/at…+which, 
        where=in/on/at…+which, 
        why=for+which 。
介词的位置非常灵活,有时放在关系代词之前,
有时放在动词之后。    1. I won’t forget the date when( on which) I     
       was born.
   2. This is the room where (in which) I lived. 
       = This is the room which I lived in.
   3. I don’t know the reason why (for which)   
       he haven’t come today.
   4. Tom still remembers the days when (in  
        which) they lived in Tianjin.        注意: 介词+which(指物),不可省
                介词+whom (指人),不可省
         介词后不用who、that
The city which she lives in is far away.
The man whom you spoke to is our headmaster.
The farm on which we worked ten years ago is beautiful.
This is the tree under which we used to play games.
Hangzhou is the place where/to which I went last summer.
  I remember the day when/on which my father died. I was 
only ten years old at that time.    1. 介词的确定方法
•The money with which you were to buy dog food is gone.
•He won’t forget the day on which he failed in  the  exam.
①根据先行词来确定
• We thought you were a person from whom we 
could expect good decisions. 
• The West Lake, for which Hangzhou is famous, is 
a beautiful place.
②根据定语从句中的谓语动词或形容词确定  Air, without which man can’t live, is really important.
③根据定语从句所表达的意义来确定
The pen with which he is writing now was bought yesterday.
  2. 介词的位置
  ①一般情况下,介词放在关系代词which和whom   
    之前,也可放在动词后。
•   ②固定搭配的动词短语中的介词一般不能提前.
• 常见的这类动词短语有: look for/after/forward 
to、
• care for、 take care of、hear of/about/from, 等. 
• This is the right place I’m looking for.
• The girl whom he is looking after is his sister.    介词﹢关系代词引导的定语从句,关
键是判断介词的选择,方法一是看从句
谓语部分缺少什么介词(习惯搭配),再则
可以通过整个句子整体含义来判断,结
合生活实际来判断.
