什么是非限定性定语从句?其主要标志和特点是什么?
非限制性定语从句 非限定性定语从句:非限定性定语从句的作用是对所修饰的成分作进一步说明,通常和主句间用逗号隔开,将从句拿掉后其他部分仍可成立
1. which引导的非限定性定语从句来说明前面整个句子的情况或主句的某一部分 ,that不能用于引导非限制性定语从句
例如:
Her house,which was built a hundred years ago,stood still in the earthquake.(那座房子在地震中依然耸立,它是一百多年前建造的.)
3. 有时as也可用作关系代词
4. 在非限定性定语从句中,用who, whom代表人,用which代表事物.
5.当先行词是专有名词或物主代词和指示代词所修饰时,其后的定语从句通常是非限制性的.
例如:

My house, which I bought last year, has got a lovely garden. 我去年买的的那幢房子带着个漂亮的花园.
This novel, which I have read three times, is very touching. 这本小说很动人,我已经读了三遍.
6.非限制性定语从句还能将整个主句作为先行词, 对其进行修饰, 这时从句谓语动词要用第三人称单数,

非限制性定语从句只是对主句内容,或先行词的补充、解释或附加说明.主句与先行词或从句之间一般用逗号分开,常常单独翻译.没有它,主句意思仍然完整.引导非限制性定语从句的关系代词有as,which,who, whom,whose等,作定语从句的主语、宾语、表语及定语.关系副词有when,where等,作定语从句的状语.关系代词和关系副词在定语从句中一般不能省.

在英语中,为了避免重复,句子中的某些部分经常省略,却给理解增加了困难.在近几年的高考试题中,省略现象也十分常见,其基本要点总结如下:

八、在特定的上下文里, 为了避免重复, 作谓语、宾语或宾语补足语的不定式再次出现时, to后的内容常承前省略, 只保留不定式符号 “to”.

我现在不去游泳但我过去常去(游泳).

除非得到允许, 你不能单独在实验室工作.

限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句有四大区别,现作简要介绍.
一、在句中作用不同
限制性定语从句对被修饰的先行词有限定制约作用,使该词的含义更具体,更明确.限制性定语从句不能被省略,否则句意就不完整.
非限制性定语从句与先行词关系不十分密切,只是对其作一些附加说明,不起限定制约作用.如果将非限制性定语从句省去,主句的意义仍然完整.
二、外在表现形式不同
限制性定语从句因与先行词关系密切,所以不可以用逗号将其与主句隔开;而非限制性定语从句与先行词关系不十分密切,所以可用逗号将其与主句隔开.
例 1. Do you remember the girl who taught us English?
你还记得教我们英语的那个女孩吗?
例 2. Clock is a kind of instrument which can tell people time.
钟是一种能够告诉人们时间的仪器.
例 3. This is the place where he used to live.
这就是他过去居住的地方.
例 4. Mr. Zhang, who came to see me yesterday, is an old friend of mine.
张先生昨天来看我,他是我的一位朋友.
例 5. We walked down the village street, where they were having market day.
我们沿着村里的大街向前走去,村民们正在那里赶集.
析:在前三个例句中,定语从句与先行词关系密切,为限制性定语从句,不可用逗号将其与主句隔开.在后两个例句中,定语从句与先行词关系不密切,为非限制性定语从句,可用逗号将其与主句隔开.
三、先行词内容有所不同
大多数限制性和非限制性定语从句的先行词往往为某一个词或短语,而特殊情况下非限制性定语从句的先行词也可为整个主句,此时非限制性定语从句常由 which 引导.
例 1. A middle-aged woman killed her husband, which frightened me very much.
一个中年女子杀害了自己的丈夫,这令我十分恐惧.
析:由语境可知,令“我”恐惧的内容应为“中年女子杀害了自己的丈夫”这整个一件事,因此先行词为整个主句,此时应由 which 引导定语从句.
例 2. A five-year-old boy can speak two foreign languages, which surprises all the people present.
一个五岁男孩会讲两门外语,这令所有在场的人感到非常惊讶.
析:由语境可知,令所有在场的人感到惊讶的内容是“一个五岁男孩会讲两门外语”这整个一件事,因此先行词为整个主句,此时应由 which 引导非限制性定语从句.
四、关系词的使用情况有所不同
(一) that 不可用于引导非限制性定语从句
所有关系代词和关系副词均可引导限制性定语从句,大多数关系代词和关系副词可引导非限制性定语从句,但 that 不可.
例 1. 他送给他母亲一台彩电作为生日礼物,这使她非常高兴.
误: He gave his mother a color TV set for her birthday, that pleased her a lot.
正: He gave his mother a color TV set for her birthday, which pleased her a lot.
例 2. 他没通过这次考试,令我很失望.
误: He didn't pass the exam, that disappointed me.
正: He didn't pass the exam, which disappointed me.
值得注意的是,不少同学误认为只有 which 才能引导非限制性定语从句,这个观点是不正确的.使用非限制性定语从句时,如果先行词指人,则用 who , which 或 whose 引导非限制性定语从句;先行词指物可用 which 引导非限制性定语从句;先行词表时间或地点且在从句中作时间状语或地点状语时,可用 when , where 引导非限制性定语从句.
例 1. We'll graduate in July, when we will be free.
我们将于七月份毕业,到那时我们就自由了.
例 2. Last Sunday they reached Nanjing, where a conference was to be held.
他们上周日到达南京,有个会议要在那里举行.
(二)关系代词替代情况不同
关系代词 whom 在限制性定语从句中作宾语时可用 who 代替 whom ,但 whom 在非限制性定语从句中作宾语时不可用 who 来代替.
例 1. This is the girl whom I met in the street.
这是我在街上遇到的那个女孩.
析:先行词 the girl 在限制性定语从句中作宾语,可用 who 代替 whom .
例 2. A young man had a new girl friend, whom he wanted to impress.
一个年轻的小伙子新交了一个女朋友,他想给她留下深刻的印象.
析:先行词 a new girl friend 在非限制性定语从句中作宾语,不可用 who 代替 whom .
在限制性定语从句中,先行词指人时可用 that 代替 who/ whom ,但在非限制性定语从句中先行词指人时,不可用 that 代替 who/whom .
例:她有一个姐姐,她是教师.
误: She has a sister, that is a teacher.
正: She has a sister, who is teacher.
(三)关系代词省略情况不同
关系代词在限制性定语从句中作宾语时可以省去,非限制性定语从句的所有关系词均不可省.
例 1. This is the book (which/that) he lost yesterday.
这就是他昨天丢的那本书.
析:先行词 the book 在限制性定语从句中作宾语,关系代词 which 或 that 可以省略.
例 2. The book, which he lost yesterday, has been found.
他昨天丢了这本书,但现在已找到了.
析:先行词 the book 在非限制性定语从句中作宾语,关系代词 which 不可省.
1. which引导的非限定性定语从句来说明前面整个句子的情况或主句的某一部分 ,that不能用于引导非限制性定语从句
例如:
Her house,which was built a hundred years ago,stood still in the earthquake.(那座房子在地震中依然耸立,它是一百多年前建造的.)
3. 有时as也可用作关系代词
4. 在非限定性定语从句中,用who, whom代表人,用which代表事物.
5.当先行词是专有名词或物主代词和指示代词所修饰时,其后的定语从句通常是非限制性的.
例如:
Charles Smith, who was my former teacher, retired last year. 查理·史密斯去年退休了,他曾经是我的老师.
My house, which I bought last year, has got a lovely garden. 我去年买的的那幢房子带着个漂亮的花园.
This novel, which I have read three times, is very touching. 这本小说很动人,我已经读了三遍.
6.非限制性定语从句还能将整个主句作为先行词, 对其进行修饰, 这时从句谓语动词要用第三人称单数,
例如:
He seems not to have grasped what I meant, which greatly upsets me. 他似乎没抓住我的意思,这使我心烦.
Liquid water changes to vapor, which is called evaporation. 液态水变为蒸汽,这就叫做蒸发.
非限制性定语从句只是对主句内容,或先行词的补充、解释或附加说明.主句与先行词或从句之间一般用逗号分开,常常单独翻译.没有它,主句意思仍然完整.引导非限制性定语从句的关系代词有as,which,who, whom,whose等,作定语从句的主语、宾语、表语及定语.关系副词有when,where等,作定语从句的状语.关系代词和关系副词在定语从句中一般不能省.

在英语中,为了避免重复,句子中的某些部分经常省略,却给理解增加了困难.在近几年的高考试题中,省略现象也十分常见,其基本要点总结如下:
一、并列句中某些相同成分的省略.

四、在限制性定语从句中可省略作宾语的关系代词whom, which, that.

— Did you know anything about it?这件事你以前知道吗?
— Not until you told me.你告诉了我, 我才知道.
八、在特定的上下文里, 为了避免重复, 作谓语、宾语或宾语补足语的不定式再次出现时, to后的内容常承前省略, 只保留不定式符号 “to”.

我现在不去游泳但我过去常去(游泳).
You can't work alone in the lab unless you are allowed to.
除非得到允许, 你不能单独在实验室工作.
注意:不定式to之后的动词是be或助动词have时, 要保留to后的be 或have.如:

限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句有四大区别,现作简要介绍.
一、在句中作用不同
限制性定语从句对被修饰的先行词有限定制约作用,使该词的含义更具体,更明确.限制性定语从句不能被省略,否则句意就不完整.
非限制性定语从句与先行词关系不十分密切,只是对其作一些附加说明,不起限定制约作用.如果将非限制性定语从句省去,主句的意义仍然完整.
二、外在表现形式不同
限制性定语从句因与先行词关系密切,所以不可以用逗号将其与主句隔开;而非限制性定语从句与先行词关系不十分密切,所以可用逗号将其与主句隔开.
例 1. Do you remember the girl who taught us English?
你还记得教我们英语的那个女孩吗?
例 2. Clock is a kind of instrument which can tell people time.
钟是一种能够告诉人们时间的仪器.
例 3. This is the place where he used to live.
这就是他过去居住的地方.
例 4. Mr. Zhang, who came to see me yesterday, is an old friend of mine.
张先生昨天来看我,他是我的一位朋友.
例 5. We walked down the village street, where they were having market day.
我们沿着村里的大街向前走去,村民们正在那里赶集.
析:在前三个例句中,定语从句与先行词关系密切,为限制性定语从句,不可用逗号将其与主句隔开.在后两个例句中,定语从句与先行词关系不密切,为非限制性定语从句,可用逗号将其与主句隔开.
三、先行词内容有所不同
大多数限制性和非限制性定语从句的先行词往往为某一个词或短语,而特殊情况下非限制性定语从句的先行词也可为整个主句,此时非限制性定语从句常由 which 引导.
例 1. A middle-aged woman killed her husband, which frightened me very much.
一个中年女子杀害了自己的丈夫,这令我十分恐惧.
析:由语境可知,令“我”恐惧的内容应为“中年女子杀害了自己的丈夫”这整个一件事,因此先行词为整个主句,此时应由 which 引导定语从句.
例 2. A five-year-old boy can speak two foreign languages, which surprises all the people present.
一个五岁男孩会讲两门外语,这令所有在场的人感到非常惊讶.
析:由语境可知,令所有在场的人感到惊讶的内容是“一个五岁男孩会讲两门外语”这整个一件事,因此先行词为整个主句,此时应由 which 引导非限制性定语从句.
四、关系词的使用情况有所不同
(一) that 不可用于引导非限制性定语从句
所有关系代词和关系副词均可引导限制性定语从句,大多数关系代词和关系副词可引导非限制性定语从句,但 that 不可.
例 1. 他送给他母亲一台彩电作为生日礼物,这使她非常高兴.
误: He gave his mother a color TV set for her birthday, that pleased her a lot.
正: He gave his mother a color TV set for her birthday, which pleased her a lot.
例 2. 他没通过这次考试,令我很失望.
误: He didn't pass the exam, that disappointed me.
正: He didn't pass the exam, which disappointed me.
值得注意的是,不少同学误认为只有 which 才能引导非限制性定语从句,这个观点是不正确的.使用非限制性定语从句时,如果先行词指人,则用 who , which 或 whose 引导非限制性定语从句;先行词指物可用 which 引导非限制性定语从句;先行词表时间或地点且在从句中作时间状语或地点状语时,可用 when , where 引导非限制性定语从句.
例 1. We'll graduate in July, when we will be free.
我们将于七月份毕业,到那时我们就自由了.
例 2. Last Sunday they reached Nanjing, where a conference was to be held.
他们上周日到达南京,有个会议要在那里举行.
(二)关系代词替代情况不同
关系代词 whom 在限制性定语从句中作宾语时可用 who 代替 whom ,但 whom 在非限制性定语从句中作宾语时不可用 who 来代替.
例 1. This is the girl whom I met in the street.
这是我在街上遇到的那个女孩.
析:先行词 the girl 在限制性定语从句中作宾语,可用 who 代替 whom .
例 2. A young man had a new girl friend, whom he wanted to impress.
一个年轻的小伙子新交了一个女朋友,他想给她留下深刻的印象.
析:先行词 a new girl friend 在非限制性定语从句中作宾语,不可用 who 代替 whom .
在限制性定语从句中,先行词指人时可用 that 代替 who/ whom ,但在非限制性定语从句中先行词指人时,不可用 that 代替 who/whom .
例:她有一个姐姐,她是教师.
误: She has a sister, that is a teacher.
正: She has a sister, who is teacher.
(三)关系代词省略情况不同
关系代词在限制性定语从句中作宾语时可以省去,非限制性定语从句的所有关系词均不可省.
例 1. This is the book (which/that) he lost yesterday.
这就是他昨天丢的那本书.
析:先行词 the book 在限制性定语从句中作宾语,关系代词 which 或 that 可以省略.
例 2. The book, which he lost yesterday, has been found.
他昨天丢了这本书,但现在已找到了.
析:先行词 the book 在非限制性定语从句中作宾语,关系代词 which 不可省.
