先行词为时间地点原因的定语从句.docxVIP

PAGE PAGE 1 先行词为时间、地点和原因名词的定语从句 （324302）浙江省开化县华埠高中 王东福 先行词为时间、地点和原因的定语从句是高中阶段的语法重点和难点。在选择关系词时， 很多学生会想当然地选择 when, where 和 why。实际上存在多种可能性，做题时应当具体问题具体分析。 试看下列几题： 例 1：（2002 上海春）Is this the reason at the meeting for his careless in his work? A. he explained B. what he explained C. how he explained D. why he explained 正确答案：A 例 2：(2004 浙江卷)Anyway, that evening, I’ll tell you more about later, I ended up staying at Rachel’s place. A. when B. where C. what D. which 正确答案：D 例 3: (2005 辽宁卷)I walked in our garden, Tom and Jim were tying a sign onto one of the trees. A. which B. when C. where D. that 正确答案：C（=in which） 对于这类定语从句我们该如何正确地选择关系词呢？简而言之，先行词在从句中充当状 语用关系副词，充当动词宾语时用关系代词。关键在于如何判断先行词在从句中的成分。在这里向大家介绍一种“句式分解法”，再配合以“成分分析法”，就可以轻松地解决这个问题。所谓“句式分解法”，就是在理解句义的基础上，把较为复杂的主从复合句分解成若干个简单明了的简单句。通过主从复合句变简单句之后所增加的成分来判断先行词在定语从句中的成 分，最终确定正确的关系词。下面以具体实例分述如下： 一．先行词为时间名词的定语从句 先行词为时间名词的定语从句中，关系词的选择主要存在两种可能性。一类用when,或介 词+which;一类用which 或 that。具体来说，先行词在从句中充当时间状语用前者，在从句中充当宾语用后者。 例 4：(2003 北京春)We are living in an age many things are done on computer. A. which B. that C. whose D. when 运用“句式分解法”，把该句拆成两个简单句来理解，相当于：We are living in an age. In this age many things are done on computer. 可以看出 in this age 是从句中的时间状语。另一方面， 从词性与成分的关系上来分析，先行词 age 不可能充当从句中不及物动词 are done 的宾语，只能是整个从句的时间状语。所以正确答案应为D 选项，或用 in which 代替。 例 5：(1995 上海)In the office I never seem to have time until after 5:30pm., many people have gone home. A. whose time B. that C. on which D. by which time 根据句义分解主从复合句：In the office I never seem to have time until after 5:30pm. Because by 5:30pm many people have gone home. 因此 D 选项才是正确选项。 例 6：Summer holidays, they plan to spend in their hometowns, are drawing near. A. that B. which C. when D. for which 根据句义先分解主从复合句：They plan to spend summer holidays in their hometowns. And now summer holidays are drawing near.显然，先行词 summer holidays 在从句中充当及物动词spend 的宾语成分。C、D 选项首先排除。本题是非限制性定语从句，不能用that, 故 B 选项是正确答案。 注意比较例 4 和例 6 从句中的动词特征。从及物动词和不及物动词的角度可以帮助我们正确判断先行词在从句中充当的是时间状语还是宾语。 二．先行词为地点名词的定语从句 先行词为地点名词的定语从句中，关系词的选择主要也
