定語從句是中學英語教學中的重要語法項目,也是高考英語中的重點和熱點。為了讓學生加深理解,提高解題能力,避免學生在這一方面的失誤,下面對其常見疑點、難點加以淺析。
一、先行詞的辨認
定語從句中關系詞一般緊隨先行詞之后,但有些情況下兩者之間介入其他結構成分。因此做題時需要看清全句結構,理解整體含義,才可選準答案,避免失誤。例如:
1.Having studied abroad for 5 years, he returned to his hometown in 2009 ____he grew up.
A.which B.tha tC.when D.where
2.The boss of the company,__________ was Mr Little,told the story.
A.which B.that C.whereD.who
3.The film brought the hours back to me_________ I was taken good care of in that faraway village.
A.who B.that C.when D.where
4.Is there anyone around the factory ______knows how to operate the computer?
A.who B.when C.which D.where
二、關系代詞和關系副詞的選用
當先行詞是表示時間、地點、原因的詞時,需將先行詞置換于從句中,看其在從句中作狀語則用關系副詞when, where或why;若作其他成分常用關系代詞。例如:
1. This is the factory______ we visited last year.
2. This is the factory______ we worked 10 years ago.
3. I’ll never forget the day________ we spent in Beijing.
4. I’ll never forget the day ______we stayed in Beijing.
5. Could you tell me the reason_______ you are late for school?
6. Could you tell me the reason _____he gave for his being late?
7. This is the house _______his grandpa lived before.
8. This is the house __________his grandpa built before.
A.which B.when C.where D.why
三、假性搭配迷惑,定勢思維干擾
1. This is the very room______ I slept in that evening.
A.that B.which C.where D.at which
2.The country life he was used to_____ greatly since the opening policy was carried out.
A.change B.has changed
C.changing D.having changed
3.This is the very work that I must finish___ her.
A.helping B.help C.to help D.helped
4.All that he enjoys_____ to surf the Internet.
A.being B.to be C.is D.are
5.I’m sure the revolution I’m devoted_____ .
A.to succeed B.to will succeed
C.to succeeding D.to succeeded
6.Mr Read made up his mind to devote all he had to______some schools for poor children.
A.set up B.setting up
C.have set up D.having set up
遇到這類題目,一定要仔細觀察,慎重考慮,看清句子結構,排除迷惑干擾。
四、增加其他語法項目
(一)添加插入語
常見的這類插入語有:I think,I believe/I imagine,in my opinion,to tell you the truth等。解題時要判斷它們是否插入成分,若是則將它們舍去再觀察句子結構。理解語句含義,方可選出正確答案。例如:
1.The scientists have made another discovery,______I believe is of great importance.
2.This is Mr Smith, _____I think has something to tell you.
3.He believes in himself,_______,in my opinion,makes him what he is now.
4.He has a deadly weak point,_____ ,to tell you the truth,prevents him from achieving the goal.
A.whoB.whichC.whereD.that
(二)插入非謂語動詞
1. Is this the man________ you want to have repair the radio for you?
2. The managers discussed the plan ______they would like to see carried out the next year.
3. She was much disappointed to see the beautiful cloth_____she had made covered with a lot of spots.
A.who B.which C.where D.whose
遇到這類題目,試將定語從句還原再解。例如第3題的后半段可以分解成兩句:
She had made the beautiful cloth.和The beautiful cloth was covered with a lot of spots.
以上是本人對定語從句有關問題的一些膚淺的認識,若有不妥之處,敬請同仁們批評指正。
