解析:
1. that/ which。先行詞為some stem cells,關(guān)系詞在從句中作主語(yǔ),故填that/ which。
【知識(shí)拓展】(1)關(guān)系詞that不可位于介詞后,不可引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句。 (2)關(guān)系詞在從句中作主語(yǔ)或賓語(yǔ),應(yīng)用that的情況:先行詞是all,everything,anything等不定代詞;先行詞被the only,the very,the right等修飾;先行詞既有人又有物;先行詞是序數(shù)詞、最高級(jí)或被序數(shù)詞、最高級(jí)修飾。
2. when。先行詞指時(shí)間,且關(guān)系詞在從句中作時(shí)間狀語(yǔ),故填when。
3. which。先行詞指物,關(guān)系詞在非限制性定語(yǔ)從句中作主語(yǔ),故填which。
【知識(shí)拓展】 which可引導(dǎo)限制性定語(yǔ)從句和非限制性定語(yǔ)從句,在從句中作主語(yǔ)或賓語(yǔ);先行詞可指物,也可指一句話內(nèi)容。
4. where。point為先行詞,關(guān)系詞在從句中作地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ),故用where引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句。
【知識(shí)拓展】當(dāng)先行詞是activity,situation,point,case,stage,scene等抽象名詞時(shí),且關(guān)系詞在從句中作狀語(yǔ)時(shí),應(yīng)用where作為引導(dǎo)詞。
5. who / that。先行詞those students指人,且關(guān)系詞在從句中作主語(yǔ),故填who/ that。
【知識(shí)拓展】(1)who引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句時(shí),不可位于介詞之后。(2)關(guān)系詞常用who的情況:先行詞為明確指人的anyone,one,ones,those等詞時(shí);在分隔式定語(yǔ)從句中,先行詞指人,為了避免歧義時(shí);當(dāng)先行詞為人稱代詞時(shí)等。
6. why。reason為先行詞,關(guān)系詞在從句中作原因狀語(yǔ),故用why引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句。
7. which。逗號(hào)前的一句話內(nèi)容為先行詞,關(guān)系詞在從句中作主語(yǔ),故填which。
8. that。關(guān)系詞在從句中作主語(yǔ),且先行詞place之前有the very修飾,故應(yīng)用that作為引導(dǎo)詞。
9. As。先行詞為逗號(hào)之后的一句話內(nèi)容,且關(guān)系詞在從句中作主語(yǔ),而定語(yǔ)從句位于句首時(shí),只能用as引導(dǎo)。
【知識(shí)拓展】as引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)時(shí),可位于句首、句中或句尾,常有“正如,正像”之意,其常用結(jié)構(gòu)為:as anybody can see;as we know;as is well known;as often happens;as is reported;as is often the case;as is mentioned above;as has been pointed out
10. whose。a couple是先行詞,且空格處作children的定語(yǔ),故填whose。
(二)考查“介詞+關(guān)系代詞”的用法
“介詞+關(guān)系代詞”既可用于限制性定語(yǔ)從句中,還可用于非限制性定語(yǔ)從句中,是定語(yǔ)從句的一種常見用法。
【考例】
1. She was taking the food to the refugee camp, in _________she distributed it to children.(2016年上海卷)
2. Many young people, most of________
were well-educated, headed for remote regions to chase their dreams.(2016年江蘇卷)
3. Some experts think reading is the fundamental skill upon_________school education depends.(2015年安徽卷)
解析:
1. which。the refugee camp為先行詞,關(guān)系詞在從句中作介詞賓語(yǔ),故用which作為引導(dǎo)詞。
2. whom。先行詞指人,關(guān)系詞作介詞of的賓語(yǔ),故whom符合題意。
3. which。先行詞指物,且關(guān)系詞在從句中作介詞upon的賓語(yǔ),故填which。
(三)考查分隔式定語(yǔ)從句
定語(yǔ)從句往往緊跟在先行詞之后,但是有時(shí)可能會(huì)在從句和先行詞之間插入其他成分,使從句與先行詞分隔開來,從而形成了分隔式定語(yǔ)從句(也可稱為“間隔式定語(yǔ)從句”)。如:
Tom was the first student in his class who had won the scholarship. (先行詞student和定語(yǔ)從句被介詞短語(yǔ)“in his class”隔開) 湯姆是班里第一個(gè)獲得獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金的學(xué)生。
【考例】 After the flooding, people were suffering in that area, _________ urgently needed clean water, medicine and shelter to survive.(2012江蘇卷)
解析: who。people為先行詞,且關(guān)系詞在非限制性定語(yǔ)從句中作主語(yǔ),故who符合題意。
(四)考查定語(yǔ)從句的主謂一致
當(dāng)定語(yǔ)從句的關(guān)系代詞在從句中作主語(yǔ)時(shí),從句謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)形式應(yīng)與先行詞一致,即先行詞為單數(shù),從句謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞為單數(shù),先行詞為復(fù)數(shù),則從句謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞為復(fù)數(shù)。
【考例】
1. Barbara is easy to recognize as shes the only one of the women who always _________ (wear) evening dress.
2. He wrote many childrens books, nearly half of which _________ (publish) in the 1990s.(2015年重慶卷)
解析:
1. wears。根據(jù)always和語(yǔ)境可知,空格處應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí);關(guān)系詞在從句中作主語(yǔ),而one是定語(yǔ)從句的先行詞,故空格處應(yīng)用單數(shù)形式。(one之前如沒有the only修飾時(shí),先行詞為women。)
2. were published。nearly half of which在從句中作主語(yǔ),且是動(dòng)作的承受者,根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知,空格處應(yīng)用一般過去時(shí)的被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài);結(jié)合先行詞books可知,空格處填were published。
二、高分技巧點(diǎn)撥
對(duì)于定語(yǔ)從句方面的試題,首先應(yīng)該找準(zhǔn)先行詞,然后再結(jié)合句子成分的知識(shí)對(duì)關(guān)系詞在從句中的具體作用分析推敲,判斷好關(guān)系詞在從句中作的是哪一種句子成分。需要注意的是,先行詞并不能決定關(guān)系詞的使用。例如,先行詞指時(shí)間,但是關(guān)系詞在從句中作主語(yǔ),則應(yīng)用關(guān)系代詞作為引導(dǎo)詞,而不應(yīng)使用關(guān)系副詞when。
【考例】
1. I borrow the book Sherlock Holmes from the library last week, _________my classmates recommended to me.(2014年北京卷)
2. That evening, _________ I will tell you more about later, I ended up working very late.(2012全國(guó)卷II)
解析:
1. which。先行詞為book,且關(guān)系詞在非限制性定語(yǔ)從句中作recommended的賓語(yǔ),故填which。本題容易誤填where或when,原因是認(rèn)為先行詞是空前的地點(diǎn)或時(shí)間,誤認(rèn)為關(guān)系詞在從句中作狀語(yǔ)。
2. which。that evening雖為表示時(shí)間的先行詞,但是關(guān)系詞在從句中作介詞about的賓語(yǔ),故用關(guān)系代詞which作為非限制性定語(yǔ)從句的引導(dǎo)詞。本題容易誤填when,原因是沒有判斷好關(guān)系詞在從句中的作用。
