一篇文章彻底搞懂定语从句!

定语从句常在写作中提高句式复杂度,也是中高考和四六级阅读、写作常考重点。本文将系统讲解定语从句的基本构成、常见关系词的搭配、限定与非限定的区别、以及结构压缩技巧,助你真正学以致用。

从关系词用法到句型变形,全面吃透定语从句结构与用法

一、什么是定语从句?

定语从句是用来修饰名词或代词的从句,整个从句起到定语的作用。它通常紧跟在被修饰词之后,连接词叫做关系词(包括关系代词和关系副词)。


二、关系词分类与功能

1. 关系代词:who, whom, whose, which, that

关系代词指代对象在从句中作示例
who主语The boy who is running is my brother.
whom宾语The man whom you met is my teacher.
whose人/物定语The girl whose bike was stolen is crying.
which物/动物主语/宾语The book which is on the desk is mine.
that人/物主/宾The movie that we watched was great.

2. 关系副词:when, where, why

关系副词指代内容示例
when时间I remember the day when we first met.
where地点This is the house where I was born.
why原因(常搭配reason)That’s the reason why he left.

三、限定性与非限定性定语从句

✅ 限定性定语从句(Essential)

提供关键信息,不加逗号,不能省略:

  • Students who study hard usually perform better.
  • The car that broke down belongs to Tom.

✅ 非限定性定语从句(Non-essential)

补充说明,用逗号隔开,不能用 that 引导:

  • My father, who is a teacher, loves literature.
  • This book, which was published in 1995, is out of print.

四、易错点提醒

  • 非限定性从句不能用 that:
    ❌ My car, that is blue, is fast.
    ✅ My car, which is blue, is fast.
  • 主语重复错误:
    ❌ The girl who she met us yesterday is my cousin.
    ✅ The girl who met us yesterday is my cousin.
  • 混用关系词:
    不要随便用 which 代替 who 或 vice versa。

五、句型变换练习

将两个句子合并为定语从句:

  1. She is the teacher. She taught me French.
    ✅ She is the teacher who taught me French.
  2. This is the school. I studied here for three years.
    ✅ This is the school where I studied for three years.

六、写作范文片段(适合中考或高一英语作文)

There are many students who work very hard every day, but not all of them get good grades. A student who studies with the right method can often achieve better results than those who just spend time. That’s the reason why we should learn to study wisely.

✔️ 本段运用了4个定语从句,分别修饰 people、students、those 和 reason,句式自然,逻辑清晰。


七、学习建议:

  • 练习合并简单句为定语从句;
  • 注意逗号使用与关系词搭配;
  • 多模仿例句,写出自己的定语从句句式。
