“介词+关系代词”引导非限制性定语从句：在介词后引导非限制性定语从句。
难：句意相同
as it is known to all (that...) (as 做状语从句连词，是状语从句, 可以加that)
与 as is known to all (as做主语，是定语从句)
与 it is known to all that... (主语从句，it是形式主语)
即：As is widely known, the moon is closer to the us than the sun.(定从)
= That the moon is closer to the us than the sun is widely known.(主从)
= It is widely known that the moon is closer to the us than the sun.(主从)

关系代词which有时并不代表主句中某一确定的词，而是概括整个主句的意思。介词的`选择取决于它与先行词的搭配或与从句中谓语动词的搭配。
