5页定语从句中关系副词的用法关系副词,顾名思义,是联系先行词和定语从句的词,属于副词定语从句中的关系副词有三个:when, where和why,它们在定语从句中分别作时间、地点和原因状语其句法结构如下: 表时间的名词 + when + 定语从句 when指时间,在定语从句中作时间状语 例句:I still remember the day when I first came to Beijing. I’ll never forget the day when I joined the army. 表地点的名词 + where + 定语从句 where指地点,在定语从句中作地点状语例句:The factory where his father works is in the west of the city. This is the house where I lived two years ago. 表原因的名词reason + why + 定语从句(why只用于reason之后的限制性定语从句中,在定语从句中作原因状语)例句:That is the reason why I did the job.(在现代英语中why可以省略) 上句也可以这样表示: That is the reason I did the job. 又如: This was the reason (why )we raised the temperature.关系副词在定语从句中的用法看似简单,以下注意点不可忽视:1)“when”、“where”和“why”的运用取就于表时间的名词、表地点的名词和表原因的名词reason在定语从句中所作的成分,比较下面的几组句子:*I will never forget the day when I first met you on the seashore.*I will never forget the days which/that we spent together in Xueyao Middle School.**This is the hospital where my mother works.**This is the hospital which/that we visited the day before yesterday.***The reason why he did not go to school is that he was ill.***This is the reason which/that he gave his boss in the office .2) “when”、“where”和“why”都可以替换成“介词 + which”,介词的选用取就于先行词和定语从句中的动词。
例如:Do you still remember the day on which we first met in Nantong?(on which=when)This is the room in which we lived last year.(in which=where)Do you know the reason for which he refused to go to Mary’s birthday party. (for which=why)有时定语从句中介词短语和动词有意义紧密的修饰关系,尤其在非限制性定语从句中,常使用“介词 + which”结构,而不使用关系副词例如:My mother works in a factory, in front of which there is a small river.At night the soldiers got to a small hill, at the foot of which stood a farmhouse.3) 关系副词“when”、“where”既可引导限制性定语从句,也可引导非限制性定语从句 例如:I will always remember the day when I first visited the Great Wall. He came to Shanghai in 1980, when he was only 12. I don’t know the exact spot where they will meet. Mr Wang will fly to Beijing, where he will stay for three months.有时关系副词“when”、“where”引导的限制性定语从句和先行词有间隔的现象,是为了平衡句子的语法需要。
Do you remember one afternoon ten years ago when I came to your house and borrowed a diamond necklace? The days are gone forever when the Chinese people used “foreign oil.”.4) “that”可活用为关系副词,相当于“when, where、why”和“介词 + which”结构,尤其在“the time when”等结构中的“when”常被“that”代替,而且“that”往往省略 I may leave here any time I want to. During the time I was there I visited him twice. This is my second time I have come to your country.5) “which”有时可用作关系形容词,这是“which”在非限制性定语从句中的特殊使用,如:The doctor advised him to give up smoking, which advice he did not follow. 定语从句专项练习1.This is the place_____ John was born?
