从句结构
先行词
指被定语从句修饰的名词、代词。
一般先行词出现在定语从句的前面。 [1]
关联词
关联词常有2个作用:
①连接作用,引导定语从句。
②代替先行词,在定语从句中担当一个成分。
注:关系代词有主语、宾语、定语之分。一般who做主语或其宾格形式的whom做宾语,whose作为定语(whom,whose不可省略)。关系代词在从句中作主语,宾语,定语等,关系副词在从句中作地点状语(where)时间状语(when),原因状语(why)。[1]
定语
定语用来限定、修饰名词或代词,是对名词或代词起修饰、限定作用的词、短语(动词不定式短语、动名词表示的)汉语中常用“……的”表示。主要由形容词担任,此外,名词、代词、数词、分词、副词、不定式以及介词短语也可以来担任,也可以由一个句子来担任。单词作定语时通常放在它所修饰的词之前,作前置定语。短语、从句作定语时则放在所修饰的词之后,作后置定语。
被定语从句修饰的名词、代词称为先行词。如“the
girl”,“the
book”
如:She
is
the
girl
who
likes
singing.
她就是那个爱唱歌的女孩。
这就是一个定语从句。[1]

定语从句在复合句中修饰名词或代词(先行词),因此主要结构为:
先行词+关系词+定语从句
(关系词在定语从句中指代上文的先行词,在从句中根据所充当的不同句子充分而有所选择:who,
whom,
whose,
that,
whcih,
as,
when,
where,
why)

概述
1.定义:一个句子做定语叫做定语从句。

2.非限定性定语从句:对所修饰的部分作进一步说明,拿掉之后其他部分仍然成立。

我出生在一个小城镇,它已经发展成了一个大的工业城市。
只用that引导的定语从句
在定语从句中,which 和that都可用来指物。一般可以互换,但下列情况只能用that 引导。1.先行词前有 the only, any, few, little, one of , no, every, the very 等词修饰时。

该用关系副词还是关系代词
先行词是表示时间或地点的名词时,并不都是用关系副词引导,而是要看关系词在从句中所作的成份。作状语时,用关系副词;作宾语时,仍然要用关系代词。

定语从句在句中做定语,修饰句中的某一名词(或代词)。
被定语从句所修饰的词叫做先行词。
定语从句必须放在先行词之后。
引导定语从句的关联词有关系代词that(指人或物)、which(指物)、who(指人)。例如:
This is the building(that we built last year).这就是我们去年建的楼房。
(that引导的定语从句修饰先行词building)
The man(who is talking with a group of students)is our headteacher.
正在和一群学生谈话的那个人是我们班主任。(who引导的定语从句修饰先行词man)
当关系代词在定语从句中做宾语时,关系代词常被省略去。例如:
The letter which I received yesterday was from a friend of mine.(=The letter I received yesterday was from a friend of mine.)我昨天收到的那封信是我的朋友寄来的。
注:that引导的定语从句,所修饰的先行词既可指人也可指物;which引导的定语从句所修饰的先行词一般是物。这样that和which引导的定语从句都能修饰先行词“物”,它们有什么区别?分析如下:
A.在限定性定语从句中用that的情况:
1.当先行词前有一个最高级形容词所修饰的时候。例如:
This is one of the most exciting football games that I have ever seen.这是我所看过的足球赛中最激烈的一场。
2.当先行词前有一个序数词所修饰时。例如:
The first thing that you could do was to turn off the light.你首先要做的就是熄灭灯。
3.先行词为all,everything,nothing,something,anything,little,much,none等不定代词时。例如:
All that we have to do for our students is to tell them how to speak English in class.我们为学生所做的事情就是告诉他们如何在课上说英语。
I'm going to buy everything(that)I need.我要去买我所需要的一切东西。
4.当先行词前面有only,all,any,no等词修饰时。例如:
The only thing that he could do was to run away.他唯一要做的就是逃跑。
There are no people that things must not happen to.不碰到事故的人是没有的。
5.先行词为人、物共存时。例如:
We haven't met the man and his dog(that)were in the street yesterday.我们没有遇到昨天在大街上的那个人和他的狗。
B.在定语从句中用which的情况。
1.关系代词在介词后面时。例如:
This is the house in which Tom once lived.这是汤姆以前住过的房子。
2.先行词为that时。例如:
What's that which you are holding in your hands?你手里举的是什么?
3.在非限定性定语从句中。例如:
Football,which is a very in teresting game,is played all over the world.世界都踢足球,这是一项有趣的活动。
All the books here,which have beautiful pictures in them,were written by him.
这里所有的书都是由他写的,书中有漂亮的插图。
