定语从句是中学英语语法中的重点内容，也是高考中常考查的一个考点。掌握定语从句的用法，必须突破以下六道难关：

　　一、选准关系代词和关系副词

　　在定语从句中，关系代词或关系副词都代替先行词在从句中充当一定的成分，如果该从句中缺少主语、表语、宾语或定语，就要用关系代词来连接从句；如果从句中缺少状语，就得用关系副词来连接从句。例如：

　　(1)I still remember the days which / that we spent together.

　　(2)I still remember the days when we worked together.

　　二、了解仅用that 引导限制性定语从句的几种情况

　　that 在限制性定语从句中既可指人又可指事或物。在下列情况下，只能用that 来引导定语从句：

　　1. 先行词是all , much, few, little, everything, anything, nothing 等不定代词时。例如：

　　Is there anything that you want to buy?

　　2. 先行词被all, few, little, much, every, some, no等词修饰或被the only, the very, the same, the last 等限定词修饰时。例如：

　　These are all the pictures that I have seen.

　　This is the very dictionary that is of great help.

　　3. 先行词既指人又指物时。例如：

　　My father and his teacher talked a lot about the things and the persons that they could remember.

　　4. 关系代词在定语从句中作表语时。例如：

　　Our school is not the one that it used to be.

　　5. 先行词被形容词最高级或序数词修饰时。例如：

　　This is the best English film that I have ever seen.

　　The first English novel that I read was A Tale of Two Cities.

　　6. 主句是who 或which 引导的特殊问句时。例如：

　　Who is the girl that is standing under the tree?

　　Which is the machine that we used last Sunday?

　　三、把握“介词＋关系代词”结构中介词的选用

　　介词的选择与主句中先行词的搭配密切相关。例如：

　　That”s the reason for which he was late for school.

　　This is the book on which I spent 8 yuan.

　　注意：

　　1. 定语从句中谓语动词是含有介词的动词短语时，介词应放在动词之后，不能拆开放在关系代词前。例如：

　　This is the key which you are looking for.

　　This is the baby whom you will look after.

　　2. 该结构中，关系代词指人时用whom，指物时用which.
