一、關系詞的靈活運用
真題再現(xiàn)
1．Some pre-school children go to a day care center,_____they learn simple games and songs.(2007年全國I卷)
A．then B．there C．while D．where
解析：D 考查定語從句。先行詞a day care center表示地點，定語從句由關系副詞where引導，相當于in which。
2．Those successful deaf dancers think that dancing is an activity_____sight matters more than hearing.(2007年天津卷)
A．when B．whose C．which D．where
解析：D考查的是定語從句。Dancing is an activity后面是一個定語從句，修飾an activity，在定語從句中缺少狀語，所以用where或in which。
3．After graduation she reached a point in her career____she needed to decide what to do.(2007年江西卷)
A．that B．what C．which D．where
解析：D 本題考查定語從句的引導詞。在定語從句中，當先行詞為point, case, situation等時，通常用關系副詞where引導。
4．Today, we’ll discuss a number of cases_____beginners of English fail to use the language properly.(2007年陜西卷)
A．which B．as C．why D．where
解析：D 考查定語從句。先行詞是cases，意思是：情況，狀態(tài)，指物或指地點，關系詞在從句中作狀語，先行詞指地點，用where。
5．The village has developed a lot_____we lwarned farming two years ago.(2007年福建卷)
A．when B．which C．that D．where
解析：D 考查定語從句。先行詞是the village，關系詞在從句中作狀語，用關系副詞，先行詞表地點，選D。
6．The book was written in 1946,____the_____education system has witnessed great changes.(2007年山東卷)
A．when B．during which C．since then D．since when
解析：D 考查非限制性定語從句。Since when自從那時起，常與完成時連用。
7．His movie won several awards at the film festival,_____was beyond his wildest dream.(2007年上海卷)
A．which B．that C．where D．it
解析：A考查定語從句。后半句是which引導的非限制性定語從句，which指代前面整句話的內容，在從句中作主語。
8．We’re just trying to reach a point_____both sides will sit down together and talk.
A．where B．that C．when D．which
解析：A 關系副詞when和where與point連用，即可表示具體的時間和地點，也能表示抽象的時間和地點。根據句意，“我們正在試圖找到雙方（都能接受的條件，從而使雙方）能坐到一起談判的點”，這里應是表示一個抽象的地點。
9．What surprised me was not what he said but_____he said it.
A．the way B．in the way that C．in the way D．the way which
解析：A 根據連接成分對等性，排除B、C項。The way后的定語從句關系詞可用in which，that或省略。
二、引導詞前介詞的使用不可忽視
關系代詞介詞的確定依據有三：介詞與先行詞是一種固定搭配；介詞與從句中的動詞是一種習慣搭配；介詞與從句中的形容詞是一種固定結構。
真題再現(xiàn)
1．It is reported that two schoold,_____are being built in my hometown, will open next year.(2007年四川卷)
A．they both B．which both C．both of them D．both of which
解析：D考查“介詞+關系代詞”引導的非限制性定語從句。在定語從句中，基于意義上的需要，可以在some, any, few, several, many, all, both, none, neither, either, each, enough, half, one, two等詞之后接of whom或of which；因為該句嵌入句中，它不可能是一個并列句，排除A、C項，即使是并列句也應該有連接詞。
2．Human facial expressions differ from those of animals in the degree_____they can be controlled on purpose.(2007年重慶卷)
A．with which B．to which C．of which D．for which
解析：B 考查定語從句。在某種程度上，用to a degree或to some degree，因此當degree作先詞時，關系代詞用which或that。本題因介詞提前緊跟關系詞，故用to which形式，答案選擇B項。
3．Eric received training in computer for one year,_____he found a job in a big company. (2007年遼寧卷)
A．after that B．after which C．after it D．after this
解析：B 考查定語從句及關系代詞的選擇。從句子的結構看，后面應是定語從句，而且，“他”是接受了一年的電腦培訓之后，才在一家大公司找到了一份工作的。故選after which，引導一個非限制性定語從句，起補充說明作用。
4．He was educated at the local high school,_____he went on to Beijing University.(2007年江蘇卷)
A．after which B．after that C．in which D．in that
解析：A 此題考查介詞+關系代詞引導的定語從句。根據題意應該是“在那以后”，故正確的答案是A。
5．We saw several natives advancing towards our party, and one of them came up to us,_____we gave some bells and glasses.
A．to which B．to whom C．with whom D．with which
解析：B句中的先行詞指人，故排除A、D，從句中give sth.to sb. 是固定詞組，介詞to提到關系代詞之前，故選B。
6．Many people who had seen the film were afraid to go to the forest when they remembered the scenes_____people were eaten by the tiger.
A．in which B．by which C．which D．that
解析：A 先行詞the scenes在定語從句中作地點狀語。其前的介詞常用in。
7．I was given three books on cooking, the first____I really enjoyed.
A．of that B．of which C．that D．which
解析：B 定語從句只修飾先行詞中的一部分，of表示部分和整體之間的關系，the first of which相當于the first of the three books。句意為：他給了我三本烹飪方面的書，其中第一本我特別喜歡。
三、定語從句的分隔現(xiàn)象
在英語學習中常常遇到定語從句不是直接位于先行詞之后，而是被插入語、介詞短語、副詞或副詞短語、謂語動詞、非謂語動詞等隔開，這種現(xiàn)象被稱作定語從句的分隔現(xiàn)象。
真題再現(xiàn)
1．Chan’s restaurant on Baker Street,____used to be poorly run, is now a successful business.(2007年浙江卷)
A．that B．which C．who D．where
解析：B 本題考查定語從句。從空前的逗號可知，本題考查的是非限制性定語從句，因此排除A。先行詞是地點名詞，但是引導在從句中作主語，因此選B。
2．—Is that the small town you often refer to?
—Right, just the one____you know I used to work for years.
A．that B．which C．where D．what
解析：C 了解答語中的插入語you know是解題的突破口。The one在賓語從句中作狀語。
3．The film brought the hours back to me______I was taken good care of in that far—away village.
A．until B．that C．when D．where
解析：C when引導定語從句，先行詞the hours與定語從句被back to me分隔。
四、as與which之爭
as和which都可以引導非限制性定語從句，均可指代整個句子內容，as引導非限制性定語從句，可以用在主句前，又可用在主句后，有時還可插在句中。Which引導非限制定語從句，除了指代整個句子外，還可指單個詞，不能放在句首。As引導定語從句，有“正如，就像”之意，常用在as is known to sb., as has been expected, as in mentioned above, as is often the case, as anybody can see, as has been said before等表達中。

1．By serving others, a person focuses on someone other than himself or herself,_____can be very eye-opening and rewarding.(2007年湖南卷)

A．Which B．When C．When D．As
解析：D as引導非限制性定語從句，代替整個主句，放在句首。
3．The owner of the cinema needed to make a lot of improvements and employ more people to keep it running,____meant spending tens of thousands of pounds.
A．who B．that C．as D．which
解析：D從句中缺少主語，which指代前面的整個主句并在從句中作主語，that不能用在非限制性定語從句中。As意為“正如，就像”，不符題意。
4．______I explained on the phone, you request will be considered at the next meeting.
A．When B．After C．As D．Since
解析：C表示“依據，正如……”之意時，用as引導。Which不能用在句首。
五、對whose用法的考查
Whose引導定語從句，既可指人，又可代物，在從句中作定語。
真題再現(xiàn)

真題再現(xiàn)
1．Last week, only two people came to look at the house,_____wanted to buy it.(2007安徽卷)
A．none of them B．both of them C．none of whom D．neither of whom
解析：D 分析該題，該句中含有兩個句子，用逗號隔開，缺少連接詞，所以不可用A、B項，用whom引導定語從句，從該句的信息詞two people可知答案D，neither表示“兩者都不”。
2．The factory produces half a million pairs of shoes every year, 80%______are sold abroad.
A．of which B．which of C．of them D．of that
解析：A 數(shù)詞+關系詞引導定語從句。介詞后不用that。若選C，需在80%前加and。
七、準確判斷代替先行詞的關系詞在定語從句中作任何成分，正確選擇關系詞。
關系代詞（who,whom,whose,which,that）代替的先行詞是表人或物的名詞或代詞，在從句中充當主、賓、定語等成分，作主語時，從句謂語動詞的數(shù)要與先行永嘉保持一致。關系副詞引導定語從句時，可在從句中作狀語，分別表示時間、地點或原因。
