4.先行词与关系词的关系
(1)关系代词who, that, which实际上是先行词的替代词
A plane is a machine that can fly.(that=a machine)
The boy who broke the window is called Tom.(who=the boy)
(2)关系代词whose实际上是先行词的所有格
The boy whose parents were dead was brought up by his grandfather.(whose=the boy's)
(3)关系副词实际上是"介词+先行词"
The school where I study is far from my home. (where=in the school)
5.分类
(1)限制性定语从句
它是先行词在意义上不可缺少的定语,如果去掉,主句的意思就不完整或失去意义。这种从句与主句的关系十分密切,书写时不可用逗号分开。如果关系代词在限制性定语从句中作宾语,关系代词通常可以省略。
Do you know the girl who just came in?
你认识那个刚刚进来的女孩吗?
The time when I first met Mr White was a very difficult period of my life.我第一次遇见怀特先生时是我生命中一个非常艰难的时期。
(2)非限制性定语从句
它只是对先行词作附加补充说明,如果去掉,主句的意思仍然清楚完整。这种从句与主句的关系不是很密切,书写时往往用逗号分开。非限制性定语从句一般不用that引导。
The old woman, who lives on her own, has a cat for company.
这个老妇人一个人住,养了一只猫陪伴她。
My house, which I bought last year, has got a lovely garden.
我去年买的那栋房子有一个漂亮的花园。
