英語中定語從句的用法
定語從句在句中起定語作用，修飾某一個(gè)名詞或代詞的從句，下面是小編為大家收集整理的英語中定語從句的用法相關(guān)內(nèi)容，歡迎閱讀。
定義
用來修飾句子中的名詞或代詞或其短語的從句，就叫做定語從句。其實(shí)，就是拿句子來做名詞、代詞或是其短語的定語。如：
It's a book.
I bought the book yesterday.
以上兩句話中，都有book一詞，所以可以用定語從句把兩句話連起來。即：
It's the book that I bought yesterday.
這句話中that引導(dǎo)的I bought yesterday就是一個(gè)定語從句，用來修飾the book。
兩個(gè)概念
要想學(xué)好定語從句，得先弄清楚兩個(gè)基本概念，即：先行詞和關(guān)系詞。
�。ㄒ唬┫刃性~
所謂先行詞，就是指定語從句所修飾的成分。這個(gè)名稱倒是挺形象的，為什么？因?yàn)橄刃性~永遠(yuǎn)出現(xiàn)在定語從句的前面，總是先走一步的，呵呵！
�。ǘ╆P(guān)系詞
所謂關(guān)系詞，就是指用來連接定語從句的詞語。關(guān)系詞可以分為關(guān)系代詞和關(guān)系副詞。需要注意的是，關(guān)系代詞或關(guān)系副詞都要在從句中充當(dāng)成分的，所以是不可或缺的，盡管當(dāng)關(guān)系代詞在從句中作賓語時(shí)，經(jīng)常可以省略（本文會繼續(xù)講到這個(gè)情況）。
我們在來看一下在第一節(jié)里出現(xiàn)的句子：
It's the book that I bought yesterday.
句中的the book就是先行詞，被后面的從句I bought yesterday所修飾。而that就是關(guān)系代詞，用來連接I bought yesterday，同時(shí)又在從句作bought的賓語，而且可以省略。
定語從句的學(xué)習(xí)，其實(shí)就是有關(guān)根據(jù)先行詞的特點(diǎn)選擇合適的關(guān)系詞的學(xué)習(xí)。
三、分類
按照定語從句與先行詞的關(guān)系緊密與否，可以分為限定性定語從句和非限定性定語從句。
�。ㄒ唬┫薅ㄐ远ㄕZ從句
限定性定語從句對先行詞起著修飾限定作用，是不可或缺的。如：
These are the apples that/which they sent us two days ago.
�。ǘ┓窍薅ㄐ远ㄕZ從句
非限定性定語從句對先行詞起著補(bǔ)充說明作用，可要可不要。非限定性定語從句都會被逗號與先行詞隔開。如：
They have to walk to the South Pole, which is out of a plane's reach.
【注意】
1、當(dāng)先行詞具有唯一性的時(shí)候，就只能采用非限定性定語從句，否則就會產(chǎn)生歧義或誤解。如：
限定性定語從句：His wife who is now in Paris is one of my old classmates.
非限定性定語從句：His wife, who is now in Paris, is one of my old classmates.
因?yàn)橄薅ㄐ远ㄕZ從句對先行詞起著修飾限定作用，所以具有特指功能，所以第一句中的限定性定語從句意味著是特指他在巴黎的妻子，其潛臺詞就是他不只一個(gè)妻子，也許在上�；蛘咴诩~約等其他地方還有妻子。
而非限定性定語從句只對先行詞起著補(bǔ)充說明作用，沒有特指功能，所以第二句中的非限定性定語從句只是用來補(bǔ)充說明他的.妻子現(xiàn)在人在巴黎這個(gè)事實(shí)。
2、that和why不能用來引導(dǎo)非限定性定語從句
that不能用來連接非限定性定語從句，具體的請看下一節(jié)的內(nèi)容。
而why因?yàn)榭偸蔷o跟先行詞reason，所以也不能用于引導(dǎo)非限定性定語從句。如：
That's the reason why he was late for school this morning.
在reason和why之間，不能插入逗號。
四、關(guān)系代詞
英語里能夠用來連接定語從句的關(guān)系代詞主要有：
that：表人或物
which：表物
who：表人（主格或賓格）
whom：表人（賓格）
whose：表人或物（所有格）
�。ㄒ唬﹖hat引導(dǎo)的定語從句
that引導(dǎo)定語從句時(shí)，其先行詞既可能是人，也可能是物。如：
This is the photo that I took during the trip in France.
He is the man that will visit our school next week.
【注意】
1、當(dāng)that的先行詞表物時(shí)，可以用which來替換。此外，當(dāng)that在從句中作賓語時(shí)，可以省略。如：
This is the photo that/which I took during the trip in France.
This is the photo I took during the trip in France.
句中的先行詞the photo在從句I took during the trip in France中作took的賓語，所以可以省略。
2、不能用that的情況
1）當(dāng)定語從句以介詞開頭時(shí)，一般不用that，而要用which或whom。如：
This is the pet dog for which I paid five hundred pounds.
She is the girl to whom I talked just now.
兩句話的定語從句分別以介詞for和to開頭，所以后面不能再用that，而要采用which和whom。
2）當(dāng)先行詞是that時(shí)，往往用which來替換。如：
We have that which we need.
此時(shí)，that which往往可以用what來替換，因此我們可以把上面的句子改為：
We have what we need.
3）在非限定性定語從句中。如：
錯誤：His aunt, that is our maths teacher, often gives us candies as gifts.
正確：His aunt, who is our maths teacher, often gives us candies as gifts.
3、只能用that的情況
1）當(dāng)先行詞為everything、all，little、much等不定代詞時(shí)。如：
All that glitters is not gold.
2）當(dāng)先行詞被all、every、no、any、some、little、much、one修飾時(shí)。如：
Don't waste any water that is reusable.
3）當(dāng)先行詞被the only、the very、the same、the last修飾時(shí)。如：
They are the only students that will attend the meeting.
4）當(dāng)先行詞被序數(shù)詞或形容詞最高級修飾時(shí)。如：
This is the first time that I have ever heard about a ghost.
5）當(dāng)先行詞是be的表語或there be 的主語時(shí)。如：
There are five pens that will be on display tomorrow.
6）當(dāng)先行詞有人又有物時(shí)。如：
We don't like the teacher and his lessons that are not interesting at all.
7）當(dāng)主句是以who或which及其-ever結(jié)構(gòu)開頭的特殊疑問句時(shí)。如：
Whoever that breaks the law will be punished.
4、多用who、不用that的情況
1）當(dāng)先行詞為anyone、one、ones時(shí)。如：
He is the one who will teach us English.
2）當(dāng)先行詞為those、he和people時(shí)。如：
Those who want to ask questions need to write them down first.
在從句中做主語或賓語
1、先行詞是人，在從句中做主語，用who或that引導(dǎo)；在從句中做賓語，用whom、who或that引導(dǎo)，whom、who或that可以省略：
