定語(yǔ)從句是高一語(yǔ)法中的重難點(diǎn)之一,對(duì)于高一學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō)學(xué)起來(lái)比較吃力,它要求學(xué)生具備分析英語(yǔ)句子的能力以及組織句子的能力。學(xué)生如果能學(xué)好定語(yǔ)從句,就不怕看不懂有復(fù)雜句的文章。在定語(yǔ)從句語(yǔ)法教學(xué)中,教師需要指導(dǎo)學(xué)生注意以下十個(gè)問(wèn)題:
一、“三步走”分析定語(yǔ)從句
首先找先行詞,接著分析所要求填的關(guān)系詞在定語(yǔ)從句充當(dāng)?shù)某煞?,最后把所填的關(guān)系詞放在整個(gè)句子中翻譯,看句子翻譯是否得體。
例:He who/whom/that wears red coat is my teacher.先行詞為He(指人),用who/whom/that;劃線部分在定語(yǔ)從句中充當(dāng)主語(yǔ)的成分,所以只能填who/ that,當(dāng)然在英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)中也可填whom;最后翻譯:穿紅色風(fēng)衣的他是我的老師。
二、 that與which的用法
一是只用that不用which的情況:先行詞為all/anything/no/little等不定代詞;先行詞有最高級(jí)修飾或有序數(shù)詞修飾;先行詞有only/very/any等詞修飾;先行詞既有人又有物時(shí)。例:This is the best book that I have ever seen./There is nothing that can prevent her from doing it.
二是只用which不用that的情況:引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句;代表整個(gè)主句的意思;介詞+關(guān)系代詞。例:She had failed in the English exam, which made her mother very sad. /This is the room in which my grandpa lived last year.
三、 as引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句的用法
1.as引導(dǎo)限制性定語(yǔ)從句通常用于“the same...as,such...as”結(jié)構(gòu)中。
例:I want the same shirt as my sister`s./Such computer as used in our school are made in china.
2.as引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句既可放在主句之前,也可放在主句之后,用來(lái)修飾整個(gè)句子。通常用于“as is known to all, as we know, as we expect, as is announced, as is said,as it reported”句型。
四、 定語(yǔ)從句與其他句子的區(qū)別
1.與同位語(yǔ)從句的區(qū)別
定語(yǔ)從句引導(dǎo)詞被稱為關(guān)系詞,that充當(dāng)主語(yǔ)、賓語(yǔ)、表語(yǔ),有時(shí)可省略。同位語(yǔ)從句引導(dǎo)詞被叫做連詞,that不能充當(dāng)任何成分且不可省略。
例:Word came that their team was defeated.(同位語(yǔ))
We expressed to them our wish that was the same as their.(定語(yǔ)從句)
2.與強(qiáng)調(diào)句的區(qū)別
判斷一個(gè)句子是不是強(qiáng)調(diào)句,只需把“It was...that...”去掉,如果句子的意思跟沒(méi)去掉之前句子的意思保持一樣,就說(shuō)明它是個(gè)強(qiáng)調(diào)句。
It was in the house that we stayed last week.(強(qiáng)調(diào)句)
It was the house in which we stayed last week.(定語(yǔ)從句)
五、as引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句與which的區(qū)別
1.當(dāng)主句和從句語(yǔ)義一致時(shí)用as,反之用which來(lái)引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句。
例:Our class made the first in the sports meet, which was unexpected.
Our class made the first in the sports meet, as we expected.
2.當(dāng)非限制定語(yǔ)從句為否定時(shí)常用which引導(dǎo)。例:Tom always plays computer games, which his wife doesn`t like at all.
3.一是含義不同,as一般翻譯為“正好(好像)……”,which一般翻譯為“就(前面)……這一點(diǎn)”,代替前文所說(shuō)的內(nèi)容;二是位置不同,as可放在主句之前,也可放在主句之后,而which一般只放在主句之后,也就是位于句中。
六、關(guān)系代詞在句中作主語(yǔ)時(shí)從句的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞單復(fù)數(shù)由先行詞決定
例:The man who lives upstairs speaks English fluently./The students who are in Grade Five are going to visit the Great Wall tomorrow.
“one of the +n.”做先行詞時(shí)從句中謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單、復(fù)數(shù)確定:1.“one of the +n.”做先行詞時(shí)謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù);2.當(dāng)one前面有“the, the only, the very”等修飾時(shí)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。例:He is one of the best one that have lived in a village./He is the one of the best one the that has lived in a village.
七、間隔性英語(yǔ)從句
定語(yǔ)從句有時(shí)不直接緊靠先行詞,中間由一個(gè)定語(yǔ)、狀語(yǔ)或謂語(yǔ)隔開(kāi),這就是英語(yǔ)中所說(shuō)的“間隔性英語(yǔ)從句”。例:There is a strange expression in my teacher`s eyes that I can`t understand.
八、“介詞+which”代替引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句的關(guān)系副詞
介詞在關(guān)系代詞前,只能用which和whom且不能省略;介詞在尾句,關(guān)系代詞可以有which, that, whom,口語(yǔ)中也可用who且可省略。例:The teacher (whom/who/that) you were talking about is my teacher.
九、“介詞+關(guān)系代詞”的定語(yǔ)從句中介詞的選擇
根據(jù)后面動(dòng)詞和介詞的搭配關(guān)系選擇。如:In school there was no person to whom she could turn for help.(turn to sb. for help是固定搭配詞組)
根據(jù)與前面名詞的搭配關(guān)系選擇。如:I`ll never forget the day on which I first met my boyfriend. (the day前面一般用介詞on)
同時(shí)考慮動(dòng)詞和介詞的搭配關(guān)系及介詞和名詞的搭配關(guān)系。如:That is the house in which you once lived.(理解成live in the house) /The room has a window, through which I can see the blue sky.( 理解成see the blue sky through the window)
根據(jù)所要表達(dá)的意思來(lái)確定:This is my pair of glasses, without which I cannot see clearly.
十、the way做先行詞時(shí)定語(yǔ)從句的引導(dǎo)詞
需要主、賓或表語(yǔ)時(shí)用關(guān)系代詞that、which或省略。主、賓或表語(yǔ)都有時(shí)用in which、that或省略,此時(shí)that相當(dāng)于一個(gè)副詞。如:This is the way that/in which he does.先行詞為situation/case/stage/point等表示抽象意義的詞,在滿足句中主、賓或表語(yǔ)齊全的情況下,后常用where引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句,譯為“到了某種地步,在某種情況中”。◆(作者單位:江西省永新縣第二中學(xué))
