关系代词:who, whom, that, which & whose 用来引起定语从句
平时我们接触的难句长句,很大一部分是从句。从句让句子变得错综复杂、扑朔迷离,因此划分句子成分就非常关键。有的人不喜欢语法,认为划分句子成分是很迂腐的事情。但是,为了把一个句子读通读透,就需要这么做。学会了划分句子,即便句子里有不认识的单词或词组,都不会成为阻碍我们从整体上把握。 如果大家在小学语文课上认真消化了“主谓宾定状补”,那么,套用到英文里来就可以了。所谓定语从句,不过是用来描述sb./sth.“如何如何”的从句罢了。 比如: The dog is named Karl. The dog, which is running towards me, is named Karl. (非限制性定语从句) 显然,第二句话比第一句多出来的部分只是为了作更详细的描述。并没有对句子主干作任何改动。 这说明: 把定语从句从句子里去掉并不会让一个句子不成句。 但引出了另一个问题: 定语从句有限制性和非限制性两种。限制性定语从句是先行词不可缺少的部分,去掉它主句意思往往不明确;非限制性定语从句是先行词的附加说明,去掉了也不会影响主句的意思,它与主句之间通常用逗号分开。 比如: This is the house which we bought last month. (限制性定语从句)
比较一下who, whom, that, which & whose: 1. who&whom 这两个词意思一样, 只是who可以在从句里作主语或宾语, whom只能作宾语; 一般来说, 我们鼓励作宾语时用whom The gentelman who is wearing a hat is my uncle. The gentleman to whom/who Alice is talking is my uncle.
2. that/which的区别参考上期内容
3. whose表示"***的", 一般不会和另外几个混淆 The gentleman, whose son is a doctor, is 89.
