定语的从句怎么写?
在定语从句中,能作关系代词的有which、that、who/whom。
(1)which/that指物
例:The book which/that you borrowed me yesterday is interesting.你昨天借给我的书很有意思。
(2)who/that指人
例:He is the man who/that lives next door.他是住在隔壁的那个人。
注意:关系代词在从句中作宾语时,which/that保持不变,who变为whom。
例:We wondered whom the book was about.我们想知道这本书是关于谁的。
关系副词:
在定语从句中,能作关系副词的有why(表原因)、where(表地点)、when(表时间)。
例:This is the reason why I was late this morning.这就是我今天早上迟到的原因。
This is the town where he was born.这是他出生的小镇。
Tom got married in 2000 when he was 24 years old. 2000年汤姆结婚了,当时他24岁。
注意:千万不要看见前面是原因、地点、时间就用why、where、when这些关系副词,关键要看它们在从句中起名词还是副词的作用。
请看下面的例题:
This is the reason ______ I was late this morning.
This is the reason ______ I told you.
第一句中,the reason用来修饰迟到这个动词,表示早上迟到的原因(I was late because…),因此它起到副词的作用,要用why。
而第二句中,the reason是told的宾语(I told you the reason),起名词的作用,因此要用which/that。
