Grammar
一、關(guān)系代詞
1. that既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?墒÷躁P(guān)系詞,which在從句中作賓語也可以省略。[eg:this is your book (which)you want。]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
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
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,這些詞包括當(dāng)先行詞是anything, everything, nothing ,few, all, none, little, some等不定代詞時,或者是由every, any, all, some, no, little, few, much等修飾時等,這時的that常被省略 還有先行詞前有序數(shù)詞或形容詞最高級修飾時,或先行詞就是序數(shù)詞或最高級時.以及先行詞中既有人又有物時.還有句中前面有which時,都只能用that
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
二、關(guān)系副詞

3. whose是關(guān)系代詞,修飾名詞作定語,相當(dāng)于所修飾成分的前置所有格.它引導(dǎo)的從句可以修飾人和物, 當(dāng)它引導(dǎo)的從句修飾物體時, 可以與 of which 調(diào)換,表達(dá)的意思一樣.
4. 當(dāng)從句的邏輯主語是some, any, no, somebody, anybody, nobody, something, anything, everything或nothing時,常用there is來引導(dǎo)
