Lesson 28 No parking禁止停车 定语从句 Be able to
First listen and then answer the question: What is Jasper White's problem?
Jasper White is one of those rare people who believes in ancient myths.
He has just bought a new house in the city, but ever since he moved in, he has had trouble with cars and their owners.
When he returns home at night, he always finds that someone has parked a car outside his gate.
Because of this, he has not been able to get his own car into his garage even once.
Jasper has put up 'No Parking' signs outside his gate, but these have not had any effect.
Now he has put an ugly stone head over the gate. It is one of the ugliest faces I have ever seen.
I asked him what it was and he told me that it was Medusa, the Gorgon.
Jasper hopes that she will turn cars and their owners to stone.
But none of them has been turned to stone yet!

定语从句 §
功能:用一个句子做定语,定义、修饰名词。
位置:根据英文的“理让弱小”原则,谁短谁放前面,定语是一个句子,短不了,必须放到被修饰名词的后面。
结构:先行词 + 关系词 + 定语从句 (即:名词 + 连接词 + 定语)
被修饰的名词 | 连接词 | 修饰定语 |
---|---|---|
This is the job | which | I have dreamed of |
先行词 | 关系词 | 定语从句 |
通过先行词推导关系词
简单句 | 定语从句 |
|
---|---|---|
This is the job. I have dreamed of the job for years. | This is the job which I have dreamed of | |
This is A. I have dreamed of B for years. A = B | This is A + C + I have dreamed of |
定语从句与宾语从句不一样,宾语从句是缺什么选择什么关系词,而定语从句,只需要看先行词即可;
先行词 | 关系词 | 用法 | 示例 |
---|---|---|---|
事/物 | which 哪个 | 非限制性 | The book, which is on the table, belongs to me. |
that 那个 | 限制性和非限制性 | The car that is parked outside is mine. | |
人 | that 那个 | I have a friend that speaks English. | |
who 谁 | 非限制性 | Linda, who is my best friend, is coming over for dinner. | |
whom 谁(可省) | 非限制性,在从句中作宾语。 | The man, whom I met at the party, is a famous actor. | |
人/物 某人的\某物的 | whose谁的 | 限制性和非限制性 | The house, whose roof is red, is for sale. |
地点 | where 哪儿 | 非限制性 | I visited the school where my mother works. |
时间 | when 什么时候 | I still remember the day when we first met. | |
原因 | why 为什么 | That's the reason why I didn't go to the party. | |
|
定语从句与关系代词
定语从句像形容词一样可以形容人、物及事件。分为限定性从句和非限定性关系从句(带逗号,如我的爸、妈、爷、奶是固定且唯一的)。
- I have a book that/which he likes.( “book” 为先行词 “that/which” 为关系代词)
关系代词的两个功能 一是承上, 一是启下(如上句中的 “book” 作从句的宾语)
- The boy who is standing at the door is my brother.
- I can do anything that I can do. 我愿意做我力所能及的事情来帮助你
- The boat whose name is...
- I have a house whose windows are broken. 我有一个房子, 房子的窗户都破了.
限制性定语从句 对先行词起修饰和限制作用的从句,去掉它将导致句子意义不完整或发生歧义 | 非限制性定语从句 对先行词起补充说明或附加信息的从句,即使去掉也不会影响句子的完整性和主要意义 |
