定語從句是由關(guān)系代詞和關(guān)系副詞引導(dǎo)的從句，其作用是作定語修飾主句的某個成分，定語從句分為限定性和非限定性從句兩種。狀語從句分為時間狀語從句，結(jié)果狀語從句，讓步狀語從句，原因狀語從句，條件狀語從句以及行為方式狀語從句。名詞從句包括主語從句，賓語從句，表語從句和同位語從句及there be句型。
I 定 語 從 句
一、 限定性定語從句
1. that即可代表事物也可代表人，which代表事物;它們在從句中作主語或賓語，that在從句中作賓語時常可省略關(guān)系詞，which在從句中作賓語則不能省略。而且，如果which在從句中作“不及物動詞+介詞”的介詞的賓語，注意介詞不要丟掉，而且介詞總是放在關(guān)系代詞which的前邊，但有的則放在它原來的位置
1) The first doll say “mama”was invented in 1830.
[A] that it could
[B] could it
[C] it could

[B] takes it
[C] which takes
[D] he takes
3) The period during when [A] people learned [B] to melt iron is called [C] the [D] Iron Age.
2. which作賓語時，根據(jù)先行詞與定語從句之間的語義關(guān)系，先行詞與which之間的介詞不能丟
4) The second half of his voyage was by far the more dangerous part, he sailed round the treacherous Cape Horn.

3. 代表物時多用which，但在帶有下列詞的句子中用that而不用which，這些詞包括all, anything, much等，這時的that常被省略(見本節(jié)“四、關(guān)系代詞的省略”)
4. who和whom引導(dǎo)的從句用來修飾人，分別作從句中的主語和賓語，whom作賓語時，要注意它可以作動詞的賓語也可以作介詞的賓語

[A] when
[B] whether
[C] more
[D] ever
[注] 值得一提的是，表示時間“time”一詞的定語從句只用when引導(dǎo)，有時不用任何關(guān)系代詞，當(dāng)然也不用that引導(dǎo)
By the time you arrive in London, we will have stayed there for two weeks. / I still remember the first time I met her. / Each time he goes to besiness trip, he brings a lot of living necessities, such as towers, soap, toothbrush etc.

16) I don’t want to concentrate on anything worrying me.
[A] what is
[B] there is
[C] what
[D] there
二、非限定性定語從句：非限定性定語從句的作用是對所修飾的成分作進一步說明，通常和主句間用逗號隔開，將從句拿掉后其他部分仍可成立
1. which引導(dǎo)的非限定性定語從句來說明前面整個句子的情況或主句的某一部分
2. 在引導(dǎo)限定性定語從句時，that有時相當(dāng)于in which, at which, for which或at which

3. 有時as也可用作關(guān)系代詞

2. 從句中缺成分

四、連接代詞的省略
22) Most crocodiles will eat anything capture and overpower.
[A] can
[B] they can
[C] which can
[D] and
五、例題解析
1) D為正確答案。本句中的主句為“The first doll was invented in 1830”，“that could say ‘mama’”為定語從句，修飾主句中的名詞(主語)“the first doll”。
2) C為正確答案。
3) A錯。during是介詞，它后面的關(guān)系代詞只能用which(指人除外)，which在此處指代“the period”，定語從句為“during which people…iron”，修飾主句的主語“the period”。
4) C為正確答案。
5) C為正確答案。
6) B錯。改用who，which只能指物，指人時應(yīng)用who，本句的定語從句修飾the person，關(guān)系代詞who在從句中作主語。本句也可改用that，因為that也可用來指人，它可在從句中作主語或賓語，但which則只能指“物”。
7) B錯。應(yīng)改用who，因為這里所指代的是“human beings”，而且在從句中作主語，而whom只能用來作賓語。
8) B為正確答案。空白后是一個定語從句，從句中主謂賓齊全，關(guān)系副詞where指代上面表示地點的名詞region(地方，地區(qū))，相當(dāng)于in which，即in the region，在從句中作地點狀語。
