关系代词的概念：

英语中的关系代词有who, whom, whose, that, which, 它们是用来引导定语从句的。关系代词既代表定语从句所修饰的词，又在其所引导的从句中承担一个成分，如主语、宾语、表语、或定语。
如：This is the man who saved your son. (who在从句中作主语，先行词是man） 
        The man whom I met yesterday is Jim.
        A child whose parents are dead is an orphan.
        He wants a room whose window looks out over the sea.

关系代词用法：

1、that与which的用法区别：
      两者都可指物，常可互换。其区别主要在于：
（1）引导非限制性定语从句时，通常要用which：
如：She received an invitation from her boss, which came as a surprise. 她收到了老板的邀请，这是她意想不到的。
（2）直接放在介词后作宾语时，通常要用which：
如：The tool with which he is working is called a hammer. 他干活用的那个工具叫做锤子。
（3）当先行词是下列不定代词或被它们修饰时much, little, none, all, few, every(thing), any(thing), no(thing)等时，通常用that：
如：There was little that the enemy could do but surrender. 敌人无法,只有投降了。
        All[Everything] that can be done must be done. 凡能做的事都必须做。
（4）当先行词有the very, the only, the same等修饰时，通常用that：
如：This is the only example that I know. 我知道的例子只有这一个。
        Those are the very words that he used. 那是他的原话。
（5）当先行词有形容词最高级或序数词（包括last, next等）等修饰时，通常用that：
如：This is the best dictionary that I've ever used. 这是我用过的最好的词典。
        The first thing that you should do is to work out a plan. 你应该做的第一件事是订个计划。 
（6）当关系代词在定语从句中用作表语时，通常用that：
如：China is not the country(that) it was. 中国已不是过去的中国了。
（7）当先行词是一个既指人又指物的并列词组时，通常用that：
如：They talked about the persons and things that most impressed them. 他们谈论了使他们印象最深的人和事。
（8）当要避免重复时：
如：Which is the course that we are to take? 我们选哪门课程？

2、that与who的用法区别：
（1）两者均可指人，有时可互换：
如：All that[who] heard him were delighted. 所有听了他讲话的人都很高兴。    
        Have you met anybody that[who] has been to Paris? 你遇见过到过巴黎的人吗?
        He is the only one among us that[who] knows Russian. 他是我们中间唯一懂俄语的人。
（2）但是在下列情况，通常要用that： 
   ①当先行词是一个既指人又指物的并列词组时： 
如：I made a speech on the men and things that I had seen abroad. 我就我在国外所见到的人和事作了报告。
   ②当先行词是who时(为避免重复)：
如：Who was it that won the World Cup in1982? 谁赢得了1982年的世界杯？
   ③当关系代词在定语从句中作表语时(可省略)：
如：Tom is not the boy(that) he was. 汤姆这孩子已不是以前那个样子了。

关系代词知识体系：

关系代词用法拓展：

1、as与which的用法区别：
(1)引导限制性定语从句时，在such,as,thesame后只能用as，其他情况用which：
如：I never heard such stories as he tells. 我从未听过他讲那样的故事。
        It's the same story as I heard yesterday. 这故事跟我昨天听到的一样。
        This is the photo which shows my house. 这张照片拍的是我的住宅。
(2)引导非限制性定语从句时，有时两者可互换：
如：I live a long way from work, as [which] you know. 我住得离工作单位很远，这你是知道的。
(3)但在，在以下情况引导非限制性定语从句时，两者不可换用：
①当从句位于主句前面时，只用as：
如：As is known to everybody, the moon travels round the earth once every month. 月球每月绕地球转一周，这是每个人都清楚的。
②as引导的非限制性定语从句应与主句在意义上和谐一致，which无此限制：
如：He went abroad, as[which] was expected. 他出国了，这是大家预料到的。
        He went abroad, which was unexpected. 他出国了，这让大家感到很意外。(不用as)
③as引导非限制性定语从句时，先行词通常不能是主句中某个具体的词，而应是整个句子、整个短语或某个短语推断出来的概念，而which则无此限制：
如：The river, which flows through London, is called the Thames. 这条流经伦敦的河叫泰晤士河。(不用as)
④当as引导非限制性定语从句作主语时，其谓语通常应是连系动词，而不宜是其他动词，而which则无此限制：
如：She has married again, as[which] seemed natural. 她又结婚了，这似乎很自常。
        She has married again, which delighted us.她又结婚了，这使我们很高兴。(不用as)

2、who与whom的用法区别：
两者均只用于人，从理论上说，who为主格，whom为宾格：
如：Where's the girl who sells the tickets? 卖票的女孩在哪里？
        The author whom you criticized in your view has written a letter in reply. 你在评论中批评的那个作者已写了一封回信。
但实际上，除非在正式文体中，宾格关系代词whom往往省略不用，或用who或that代之：
如：The man(that, who, whom) you met just now is called Jim. 你刚遇见的那个人叫吉姆。
不过，在以下几种情况值得注意：
(1)直接跟在介词后面作宾语时，只能用whom，而且不能省略：
如：She brought with her three friends, none of whom I had ever met before. 她带了3个朋友来，我以前都没见过。
(2)引导非限制性定语从句且作宾语时，who和whom均可用，但以用whom为佳，此时也不能省略：
如：This is Jack, who[whom] you haven't met before. 这是杰克，你以前没见过。

介词和介词短语的概念：

介词是一种用来表示词与词、词与句之间的关系的虚词，在句中不能单独作句子成分。介词后面一般有名词、代词或相当于名词的其他词类，短语或从句作它的宾语。介词和它的宾语构成介词词组，在句中作状语，表语，补语或介词宾语。介词可以分为时间介词、地点介词、方式介词和其他介词。

误用介词的三种情况：

1、多用介词：
多用介词可能是受汉语意思的影响将及物动词误用作不及物动词，也可能是受相关结构的影响而用错：
误：We discussed about the plan.
正：We discussed the plan. 我们讨论了计划。
误：Did he mention about the accident?
正：Did he mention the accident? 他提到那次事故了吗?
误：I saw her enter into the bank.

误：We should serve for the people heart and soul.
正：We should serve the people heart and soul. 我们应该全心全意地为人民服务。
误：Who controls over the factory? (但名词control可接over)
正：Who controls the factory? 谁管理这个工厂?
误：He has a great many of friends here. (比较a great number of)
正：He has a great many friends here. 他在这儿有很多朋友。

2、漏用介词：
漏用介词可能是受汉语意思的影响将不及物动词误用作及物动词，或是受相关结构的影响的影响而用错等：
误：This matter is difficult to deal. (deal with=处理)
正：This matter is difficult to deal with. 这事很难处理。
误：He is not a man to be depended.
正：He is not a man to be depended on. 他不是个可靠的人。
误：He took a cup of tea, and went on the story.
正：He took a cup of tea, and wentonwiththestory.他喝了一口茶，又接着讲故事。
误：My mother still regards me a child. (比较consider…as中的as可省略)
正：My mother still regards me as a child. 我母亲还把我当小孩看。
误：They insisted sending a car over to fetch us.
正：They insisted on sending a car over to fetch us.他们坚持要派车来接我们。
误：What he says is worth listening.
正：What he said is worth listening to.他的话值得一听。

3、错用介词：
错用介词的情况比较复杂，可能是因受汉语意思的而错，也可能是因弄不清搭配关系而错，可能是混淆用法而错，也可能是受相关结构的影响而错，可能是忽略语境而错，也可能是想当然的用错：
误：She called on his office yesterday. (call on+人，call at+地点)
正：She called at his office yesterday. 她昨天去了他办公室拜访。
误：He is engaged with a nurse.
正：He is engaged to a nurse.他与一位护士订了婚。

误：We are familiar to his character.
正：We are familiar with his character.我们了解他的性格。
误：Help yourself with the fruit.
正：Help yourself to the fruit.吃点水果吧。

介词的宾语：

 1、名词或代词作介词宾语：
如：Are you interested in history? 你对历史感兴趣吗？
        Don't worry about it. 别为它担心。
注：若是人称代词用作介词宾语，要注意用宾格。
如：No one can sing like her. 没有人能像她那样唱歌。(不能用like she)
2、动名词作介词宾语：
如：He is good at telling stories. 他善于讲故事。 
        In crossing the street he was run over. 他在穿过马路时被汽车撞倒。
3、过去分词作介词宾语：
如：We can't regard the matter as settled. 我们不能认为这事已经解决。
        I take it for granted you have read the book. 我以为你读过这本书。
注：过去分词用作介词宾语通常只见于某些固定结构中，如上面第1句涉及regard…as(认为…是)结构，第2句涉及take sth for granted(认为某事属实)。在其他情况下，介词后通常不直接跟过去分词作宾语，若语义上需要接过去分词(表被动)，可换用“being+过去分词”：
如：He went out without being seen by the others.他出去了，没有被其他人看见。
4、从句作介词宾语：
如：He was not satisfied with what she said. 他对她说的不满意。
        I'm worried about where he is. 我担心他上哪儿去了。
注：介词后通常不接that从句，遇此情况需考虑用其他结构：
误：He paid no attention to that she was poor.
正：He paid no attention to the fact that she was poor. 他根本不注意她很穷这一事实。
但有个别介词(如except)可接that从句。
比较：I know nothing about him except that he lives next door./I know nothing about him except for the fact that he lives next door. 我只知道他住在隔壁,其它的就不知道了。
5、不定式作介词宾语：
如：I had no choice but to wait. 除了等，我没有别的选择。 
       He wanted nothing but to stay there. 他只想留在那儿。
       They did nothing but complain. 他们老是一个劲地抱怨。 
       He never did anything but watch TV. 除了看电视，他从不干任何事。
注：(1)介词后接不定式的情形通常只见于but, except等极个别个词。该不定式有时带to，有时不带to，其区别是：若其前出现了动词do，其后的不定式通常不带to；
若其前没有出现动词do，则其后的不定式通常带to。 
(2)介词后虽然通常不直接跟不定式作宾语，但却可接“连接代词(副词)+不定式”结构：
如：He gave me some advice on how to do it. 对于如何做这事他给我提了些建议。
6、形容词作介词宾语：
如：Her pronunciation is far from perfect. 她的语音远不是完美的。
        In short, we must be prepared. 总而言之，我们要有准备。
        Things have gone from bad to worse. 事情越来越糟。
注：(1)有些形容词用作介词宾语可视为其前省略了动名词being：
如：He regarded the situationas(being) serious. 他认为形势严重。
        His work is far from(being) satisfactory. 他的工作丝毫不令人满意。 
(2)有些“介词+形容词”的结构已构成固定搭配：in full全部地，全面地，无省略地； in private私下地，秘密地； in particular特别地；in general一般地，通常地，概括地； in brief 简言之；in short总之，简言之； in vain徒然地，徒劳无益地；for fee免费地，无偿地； for certain肯定地，确切地；for sure肯定地，确切地； for short为了简短，简称；atl arge自由自在地，逍遥法外； by far…得多
7、副词作介词宾语：
如：I can't stay for long. 我不能久呆。 
        It's too hot in here. 这里面太热了。
        I looked every where except there. 除了那儿，我到处都看过了。
8、数词作介词宾语：
如：The city has a population of four million. 这座城市有四百万人口。
        He was among the first to arrive. 他是第一批到的。
9、介词短语作介词宾语：
如：Choose a book from among these. 从这些书中选一本吧。
        I saw her from across the street. 我从街的对面望见了她。
注：通常可后接介词短语作宾语的介词是from, till, until, since, except, instead of等。
比较：I took it from the bed. 我从床那儿(或床上)拿的。
            I took it from under the bed. 我从床下拿的。 
10、复合结构用作介词宾语：
如：She had no objection to Mary marrying him. 她不反对玛丽与他结婚。
        She came in with a book in her hand. 她手里拿着一本书走了进来。
        All the afternoon he worked with the door locked. 整个下午他都锁着门在房里工作。

介词短语的句法功能：
1、表语：
如：He was with a friend. 他和一个朋友在一起。
        Health is above wealth. 健康胜过财富。
        This knife is for cutting bread. 这把小刀是用于切面包的。
注：有些介词(如because of)引出的短语通常只用作状语，不用作表语：
误：His absence is because of the rain.
正：His absence is due to the rain. 他因雨未来。
但是，若主语是代词(不是名词)，becauseof引出的短语可用作表语：
如：It is because of hard work. 那是因为辛苦工作的原因。
2、状语：
如：Don't touch it with your hands. 别用手去摸它。
        Did you do this by design or by accident? 你这样做是有意的还是无意的？
3、定语：
如：This is his reply to your letter. 这是他给你的回信。
        This is the best way of doing it. 这是做此事最好的方法。
        My love for you is deeper than the sea. 我对你的爱比海深。
4、宾语补足语：
如：I found everythingin good condition. 我发现一切正常。
       Her illness kept her in bed for a week. 她因生病在床上躺了一星期。
注：用作宾语补足语的介词短语在相应的被动语态中则为主语补足语：
如：He was regarded as a hero. 他被看成是英雄。
5、宾语：
如：A man stepped out from behind the wall. 一个人从墙后走出来。
        He cannot spare anytime except on Sunday. 除星期日外，他抽不出时间。
6、主语：
如：Between6 and 7 suits me. 六点到七点对我比较适合。
        After the exams is the time to relax. 考试后是轻松一下的时间。
注：介词短语通常不用作主语，尽管有时也像上面这样用作主语，但通常可视为是在一定的上下文中有所省略：
如：—When are we going to have the next meeting? 我们下次什么时候见面？
        —On Tuesday may be convenient. 星期二可能比较方便。
此句中onTuesday虽用作主语，但可视为是其前省略了meeting一词：
即：Meeting during the vacation may be convenient.

非限制性定语从句的概念：

非限制性定语是对被修饰名词或代词的附加说明，它不是必需的，如果去掉，也不会影响句子的意思，它与被修饰名词之间通常用逗号分开。
如：The travellers, knowing about the floods, took another road. 游客们知道发了大水，都改道走了。
        The boys, wanting to play football, were disappointed when it rained. 那些男孩子想踢足球，因为下雨感到失望。

非限制性定语从句用法：

1、引导非限定性定语从句时，只能用which(不用that)。
例如：Heat is another form of energy, which is as important as other kinds of energy.
            热是另一种形式的能量，与其他形式的能量一样重要。 （从句表补充说明，而且关系代词which不能换成that。） 　　
2、引导非限定性定语从句的which可以指代前面的先行词,也可以指前面整个句子的含义。
例如：That Peter will marry Alice, which has not been announced yet, has spread around.
            彼特要娶爱丽斯这件事还没宣布，却已传得沸沸扬扬。（句子中的which指“彼特要娶爱丽斯”这整个句子的意思。） 　　
3、除which外，还可用when，where，who等关系代、副词引导非限定性定语从句。
例如：After graduation, I decided to stay in Chongqing, where I spent my childhood and four years of college life. 
毕业后，我决定留在重庆，在那里我曾度过了我的童年和四年大学生活。 　　                 
Albert Einstein left Germany for the United States during World WarII, when Jews were badly treated in Germany.  
第二次世界大战期间，爱因斯坦离开德国去了美国，那时犹太人在德国受到不好的对待。 　　
4、在限定性定语从句中作宾语时，引导词可以省略，但引导非限定性定语从句的关联词不能省。
如：He was eager to go to the hospital to see his stepmother, whom he loved and respected as his own mother. 
他急于想去医院看望他的继母，他把他的继母当作亲生母亲一样热爱和尊敬。 　　    
The American journalist(whom/who) the announcer mentioned in the news broadcast is said to have been killed by the gangsters.
 播音员在新闻广播中提到的那位美国记者据说已经被匪徒杀害了。 　　
两例中的关系代词都在从句中作宾语。由于第二例是限定性定语从句，可以省略关系代词；第一例中的引导词不能省略，因为它引导的是非限定性定语从句。 　　
5、表示“正如”的含义时，通常用as引导非限定性定语从句，也可用which引导；但置于句首时，只能用as引导。 　　
如：China has basically succeeded in defeating SARS, which/as we have expected.
        正如我们所预料的那样，中国已基本上战胜了“非典”。 　　  
        As is well known to everybody, Tai wan is an inseparable part of China.
        众所周知，台湾是中国不可分割的一部分。 　　
但是当非限定性定语从句是否定含义时，就只能用which(而不用as)引导。
如：He didn't win the championship, which I hadn't expected.
        他没获得冠军，这一点是我没预料到的。

非限制性定语丛句中as, which的区别：

1、which引导非限制性定语丛句代表前面的整个句子的时候，一般是对主句的结果的说明。 
      如： He grows too fast, which makes him taller than his classmates.
2、as引导非限制性丛句代表前面整个句子时一般来讲丛句的谓语动词有三种：
A. 含有be动词：
如：He failed the exam, as is natural.
B. 实意动词的被动形式：
如：As is reported, the fire caused a great loss.
C.感官动词和意识类动词如：
如：see, hear, notice, know, learn, realize 等。 
        As you know, I am a teacher.
3、as可翻译为正如，它引导的丛句可位于主句之前，也可位于主句之后；which引导的该丛句只能位于主句之后。
例1：__A___he realized, I was very useful to him. 
例2：This elephant is like a snake, ___A__anybody can see. 
例3：The sun gives us light and heat, __B___makes the plan tgrow well.
          A. As(as)
          B. which
          C. that
          D. who

限定性定语从句与非限定性定语从句的区别：

非限制性定语从句的关系词：

非限定性定语从句的使用规则及注意事项：

1、which引导的非限定性定语从句是用来说明前面整个句子的情况或主句的某一部分。
2、在引导限定性定语从句时，that有时相当于in which, at which, for which或at which。其中，介词的选用，依据从句中的动词所需搭配的介词来选用。例句：
① Attitudes towards day dreaming are changing in much the same way that(inwhich)attitudes towards night dreaming have changed.
    人们对白日做梦的态度正在改变，这与人们对夜间做梦的看法的变化有非常相似之处。
② I like the music for the very reason that(for which) he dislike it. 
    我出于某种原因喜欢这种音乐，而他恰恰与我相反。
③ We arrived the day that(on which) they left.
    刚好我们到的那天他们走了。
3、as有时也可用作关系代词。
4、在非限定性定语从句中，关系词不能用that。
