限制性定语从句用法
定语从句是由关系代词或关系副词引导的从句，其作用是作定语修饰主句的某个名词性成分，相当于形容词，所以又称为形容词性从句，一般紧跟在它所修饰的先行词后面。以下是小编帮大家整理的限制性定语从句用法，希望能够帮助到大家。
限制性定语从句用法1
限制性定语从句是对先行词的内容进行严格、明确限定的定语从句，与先行词的意思关系非常紧密。
此时如果把限制性从句移除，先行词的意思就会受影响，意思不完整、不清楚或者有很大的变化。
所以，限制性定语从句是不能移除的。
例如：
Give me the article that tells our company.
把讲述我们公司的文章给我。
(限定的是“讲述我们公司的那篇文章”，而不是别的文章)
Which is the motorb ike that you fixed on the 12th?
哪辆是你12号修理的摩托车?
(限定的是“你12号修的那辆摩托车”，不是别的或者其他日子修的摩托车)
说到定语从句大家肯定都很熟，但是关于定语从句中总有一个痛处那就是非限制性定语 non-restrictive/ non-defining attributive clauses和限制性定语从句restrictive attributive clause;其实区分很简单，从形式上一句话：“which”前面有逗号的叫非限制性定语从句，没有逗号的就是限制性定语从句;
但是它们的难点其实根本不在于形式上的区分，而在于什么时候该用限制性定语从句和什么时候该非限制性定语从句，那么就不得不探究一下它们分别的作用;限制性定语从句：用于对先行词的意义进行修饰，限制和识别，如果去掉，就会造成句意不完整或概念不清;
比如：
We arrived the day that(on which) they left.如果把这里的定语从句去掉意思就会不完整或者改变;非限制性定语从句：对先行词起补充说明作用，如果省略，句意仍然清楚完整。
Peter, whom you met in London, is now back in Paris.
彼得现在回巴黎了，你在伦敦见过他。这里把定语从句去掉也不会影响这句话的主要意思;
The play，whose style is rigidly formal，is typical of the period.
这剧本是那个时期的典型作品，风格拘谨刻板。
Water，which is a clear liquid，has many uses.
水是一种清澈的液体，有许多用途。
比如：
I have a brother who is a doctor.
(言外之意是我的弟弟不止1个)
I have a brother , who is a doctor.
(言外之意是我只有一个弟弟)
总之，限制性定语从句能不能用主要就看前面的先行词能不能被分类， 如果上个例子中我只有1个弟弟那就只能用非限制性定语从句，因为根本不需要用限制性定语从句分类挑出来;同理，只有当我有好几个弟弟的时候，才能用限制性定语从句去区分
限制性定语从句用法2
我们知道，as和which作为关系代词都可以用来引导非限制性定语从句，指代整个主句所表达的内容，在从句中作主语或宾语，但它们在用法上有区别，这一点许多学生往往搞不清楚。现就它们引导非限制性定语从句的用法简述如下：
一、相同之处
当从句位于主句之后，引导词指代整个主句所表达的全部意义时，as和which可以互换。如：
The elephant is like a snake,as/which everybody can see.
大家都看得出，这头大象像条蛇。
A big earthquake occurred there last night,as/which was reported on TV.
据电视报道，昨夜那里发生了大地震。
She is from Shanghai,as/which I know from her accent.
她来自上海，那是我从她的口音知道的。
二、不同之处
1、as引导非限制性定语从句时，位置比较灵活，可位于主句之前，也可位于主句之中或之后;而which引导非限制定语从句只能位于主句之后，不能位于主句之前。如：
_______ is known to everybody,the moon travels round the earth.
A.It B.As C.That D.Which
答案：B
_______ is mentioned above,the number of the students in senior high schools is increasing.
A.Which B.As C.That D.It
答案：B
Air,as we know,is a gas.众所周知，空气是一种气体。
He is very careful,as his work shows.
他的工作表现表明他非常谨慎。
as引导非限制性定语从句常有“如同......那样”的含义，因此在一些固定结构中，如：
as we know;as is known to all(众所周知)
as we all can see(正如我们大家都能看到的那样)
as has been said before/above(正如前面所述)
as might be imagined(可以想象得到)
as might be expected(正如所预料的那样)
as is often the case(情况通常是这样)
以上种种固定搭配，一般不能用which代替as。
2、搭配上，在由the same或such所修饰的名词后通常用as作关系代词引出非限制性定语从句。如：
I have got into the same trouble as he (has).
我遇到了与他一样的麻烦。
I've never heard of such a moving story as he is telling.
我从未听过像他讲得那么有趣的故事。
3、which引导的从句在意义上相当于一个并列句，可以用and this代替，意思是“这件事”;as引导的从句主要起连接上下文的作用，表达说话人的观点、看法，并指出主句内容的根据或出处等。如：
He sold his new car,which surprised me.
=He sold his new car,and this serprised me.
Einstein,as we know,is a famous scientist.
我们都知道，爱因斯坦是一位著名的科学家。
As is known to all,Taiwan is part of China.
众所周知，台湾是中国的一部分。
4、当which在从句中指代的是先行词本身而不是主句时，不可用as代替which。如：
The peach tree,which I planted last year,has not borne any fruit.
这棵桃树是我去年种下的，还没有结出任何果实。
The book,which I bought yesterday,is very instructive.
我昨天买的这本书很有教育意义。
5、在从句中作主语时，which既可作系动词be的主语，也可作实义动词的主语，而as只可作系动词be的主语。如：
He married her,which was nature.(可用as代替which)
他和她结婚了，这是很自然的事。
She met the boy,which delighted her.(不可用as代替which)
她见到了那个男孩，这使得她很高兴。
He failed in the exam again,which made his parents very angry.
他考试有不及格了，这是他父母很生气。
6、as引导的从句在意义上不可与主语相悖，而which引导的从句则不受此限制。
Mum treats me like a baby,which I can't bear.
妈妈把我当小孩看待，这是我不能忍受的。

as引导
as引出非限定性定语从句时，代替整个主句，对其进行说明但通常用于像as we all know, as it is known, as is known to all, as it is, as is said above, as always mentioned above, as is usual, as is often the case, as is reported in the newspaper等句式中。as在非限定性定语从句中作主语、表语或宾语，且引出的从句位置比较灵活，可位于句首或句末，也可置于主句中间。通常均由逗号将其与主句隔开。as有“正如……， 就像……”之意。

难：句意相同

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。

限制性定语从句用法4
一、在句中作用不同
限制性定语从句对被修饰的先行词有限定制约作用，使该词的含义更具体，更明确。限制性定语从句不能被省略，否则句意就不完整。
非限制性定语从句与先行词关系不十分密切，只是对其作一些附加说明，不起限定制约作用。如果将非限制性定语从句省去，主句的意义仍然完整。
二、外在表现形式不同
限制性定语从句因与先行词关系密切，所以不可以用逗号将其与主句隔开；而非限制性定语从句与先行词关系不十分密切，所以可用逗号将其与主句隔开。
例 1. Do you remember the girl who taught us English？
你还记得教我们英语的那个女孩吗？
例 2. Clock is a kind of instrument which can tell people time.
钟是一种能够告诉人们时间的仪器。
例 3. This is the place where he used to live.
这就是他过去居住的地方。
例 4. Mr. Zhang， who came to see me yesterday， is an old friend of mine.
张先生昨天来看我，他是我的一位朋友。
例 5. We walked down the village street， where they were having market day.
我们沿着村里的大街向前走去，村民们正在那里赶集。
析：在前三个例句中，定语从句与先行词关系密切，为限制性定语从句，不可用逗号将其与主句隔开。在后两个例句中，定语从句与先行词关系不密切，为非限制性定语从句，可用逗号将其与主句隔开。
三、先行词内容有所不同
大多数限制性和非限制性定语从句的先行词往往为某一个词或短语，而特殊情况下非限制性定语从句的先行词也可为整个主句，此时非限制性定语从句常由 which 引导。
例 1. A middle-aged woman killed her husband， which frightened me very much.
一个中年女子杀害了自己的丈夫，这令我十分恐惧。
析：由语境可知，令“我”恐惧的内容应为“中年女子杀害了自己的丈夫”这整个一件事，因此先行词为整个主句，此时应由 which 引导定语从句。
例 2. A five-year-old boy can speak two foreign languages， which surprises all the people present.
一个五岁男孩会讲两门外语，这令所有在场的人感到非常惊讶。
析：由语境可知，令所有在场的人感到惊讶的内容是“一个五岁男孩会讲两门外语”这整个一件事，因此先行词为整个主句，此时应由 which 引导非限制性定语从句。
四、关系词的使用情况有所不同
（一） that 不可用于引导非限制性定语从句
所有关系代词和关系副词均可引导限制性定语从句，大多数关系代词和关系副词可引导非限制性定语从句，但 that 不可。
例 1. 他送给他母亲一台彩电作为生日礼物，这使她非常高兴。
误： He gave his mother a color TV set for her birthday， that pleased her a lot.
正： He gave his mother a color TV set for her birthday， which pleased her a lot.
例 2. 他没通过这次考试，令我很失望。
误： He didn't pass the exam， that disappointed me.
正： He didn't pass the exam， which disappointed me.
值得注意的是，不少同学误认为只有 which 才能引导非限制性定语从句，这个观点是不正确的。使用非限制性定语从句时，如果先行词指人，则用 who ， which 或 whose 引导非限制性定语从句；先行词指物可用 which 引导非限制性定语从句；先行词表时间或地点且在从句中作时间状语或地点状语时，可用 when ， where 引导非限制性定语从句。
例 1. We'll graduate in July， when we will be free.
我们将于七月份毕业，到那时我们就自由了。
例 2. Last Sunday they reached Nanjing， where a conference was to be held.
他们上周日到达南京，有个会议要在那里举行。
（二）关系代词替代情况不同
关系代词 whom 在限制性定语从句中作宾语时可用 who 代替 whom ，但 whom 在非限制性定语从句中作宾语时不可用 who 来代替。
例 1. This is the girl whom I met in the street.
这是我在街上遇到的那个女孩。
析：先行词 the girl 在限制性定语从句中作宾语，可用 who 代替 whom .
例 2. A young man had a new girl friend， whom he wanted to impress.
一个年轻的小伙子新交了一个女朋友，他想给她留下深刻的印象。
析：先行词 a new girl friend 在非限制性定语从句中作宾语，不可用 who 代替 whom .
在限制性定语从句中，先行词指人时可用 that 代替 who/ whom ，但在非限制性定语从句中先行词指人时，不可用 that 代替 who/whom .
例：她有一个姐姐，她是教师。
误： She has a sister， that is a teacher.
正： She has a sister， who is teacher.
（三）关系代词省略情况不同
关系代词在限制性定语从句中作宾语时可以省去，非限制性定语从句的所有关系词均不可省。
例 1. This is the book （which/that） he lost yesterday.
这就是他昨天丢的那本书。
析：先行词 the book 在限制性定语从句中作宾语，关系代词 which 或 that 可以省略。
例 2. The book， which he lost yesterday， has been found.
他昨天丢了这本书，但现在已找到了。
析：先行词 the book 在非限制性定语从句中作宾语，关系代词 which 不可省。
