引導(dǎo)定語從句的關(guān)系副詞代替與其相應(yīng)的先行詞,并且在從句中 起到時間 (when),地點(diǎn) (where),和原因狀語 (why)的作用。關(guān)系副詞的在意義相當(dāng)于一個 “ 介詞 + which ” 的結(jié)構(gòu)。 when = (at / on / in /during +which) 1) I shall never fet the day when ( on which) we moved into our new house. 2) The year when ( in which) he was born was 1980. 3) I still remember the time when ( at which ) I first became a college student. (注):在現(xiàn)代英語中, that 也可用作關(guān)系副詞, 代替 when . 尤其當(dāng)先行詞為 time 時 . 此時也可以不用副詞。 That is the first time( when /at which/ that) I have seen him. Where = (in / at / on which) 1) That’s the house where / in which he lived ten years ago. 2) This is the school where / at which I studied English. (注): 在現(xiàn)代英語中,當(dāng)先行詞是 place時, that可作關(guān)系副詞,替換 where. .. This is the only place that / where / in which you can find such flowers. Why = for which .: This is the reason why / for which he did it. (注 ): 在現(xiàn)代英語中,當(dāng)先行詞是 reason時, that可作關(guān)系副詞, 替換 省略關(guān)系副詞。 .: I don’t know the reason (why /for which / that) he came late. 介詞 + 關(guān)系代詞(代人用 which ,代物用 whom) 1) 介詞可能是從句謂語的一個部分, 或動詞所需要的搭配。 eg:1) That is the job at which they laughed . 2) That is the job which / that they laughed at. 2) 由先行詞 的習(xí)慣搭配或 根據(jù)先行詞 的需要。 eg :
