引导定语从句that和who
在定语从句中,关系代词who 和that都可指人和物,在一般情况下,可以互换使用,但在下列情况下值得注意,之间的区别:

1.在非限制性定语从句中的先行词指人时,只能用who 。
例:My sister, who is studying abroad, sent me a beautiful present just before this
Christmas.
我姐姐,她在国外学习,就在圣诞节前给我寄来了漂亮的礼物。
2.当定语从句对指人的先行词进行隔位修饰时,只能用who。
例:Do you know the girl in front of the blackboard who is speaking to the
students?
你认识黑板前面正在给学生们讲话的那位女孩子吗?
3.当先行词为people和those时,只能用who.
例:Those who want to go there come here please.
那些想去那儿的人请来这边。
4.当先行词为one, ones, anyone, everyone, none, all(指人) 时,只能用who。
例:Anyone who is against us is our enemy.

5. 先行词指人,而关系代词在从句中作主语时,一般多用who。
例:The man who came here yesterday said he would come again in a few days.

6. 在there be句型中名词的定语从句多用who 。
例:There are students in our class who / whom you have met.
我们班有些学生你见过。
7.当句子中有两个指人的现行词分别带有两个定语从句时,若一个定语从句的引导词为that, 那么,另一个定语从句的引导词必定为who。
例:The boy that you met just now is Li Ming’s brother who just graduated from a
university.
刚才你会到的那个男孩是李明的刚从大学毕业的弟弟。
二、用that 而不用who的情形
1.当先行词前面有形容词的最高级或序数词修饰时,引导词只能用that。

在为我们队踢足球的最高哪个运动员来自山东。

very形容词修饰时,引导词只能用that。

3.当主句是以who开头的特殊疑问句时,引导词只能用that。
例:Who is woman that you talked with just now?
