2010年12月大學(xué)英語(yǔ)四六級(jí)考試必備語(yǔ)法精要

　　7.非限制性定語(yǔ)從句

　　非限制性定語(yǔ)從句修飾先行詞或整個(gè)主句，起補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明的作用，如果省略掉，原句句意仍保持完整。非限制性定語(yǔ)從句要用逗號(hào)與主句隔開(kāi)，其引導(dǎo)詞不能用that。非限制性定語(yǔ)從句屬于正式語(yǔ)體。經(jīng)�？嫉降姆窍拗菩远ㄕZ(yǔ)從句有以下三種。

　　1) 由which、as引導(dǎo)的非限制性定語(yǔ)從句。which、as代表整個(gè)主句。

　　He said that he had never seen her before, which was not true.

　　China is still a developing country, which is known to all of us.

　　2) 由 “介詞+關(guān)系代詞”引導(dǎo)的非限制性定語(yǔ)從句。

　　He sent her a letter, in which he said that he was sorry for what he had done to her.

　　He failed to pass the exam, because of which his parents scolded him.

　　4) 由 “數(shù)詞、代詞或名詞+of +關(guān)系代詞”引導(dǎo)的非限制性定語(yǔ)從句。

　　He had three sons, one of whom was my son’s classmate.

　　There are about twenty students in this course, most of whom are freshmen.

　　They are two different words, the spellings of which are easily confused.

　�、� 狀語(yǔ)從句

　　1. 狀語(yǔ)從句中以下四種從句考得較多，這里給予簡(jiǎn)單介紹。

　　1) 時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句

　　時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句主要由以下連詞引導(dǎo)：when, whenever, as, while, since, until, till, before, after, as soon as, once, hardly (scarcely) … when, no sooner … than。

　　I will discuss the matter with you when we meet tomorrow.

　　He didn’t go to sleep until he finished doing his homework.

　　You have changed a lot since we met last time.

　　時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句還可由某些可充當(dāng)連詞的名詞(the moment, the instant, every time,等)和副詞(instantly, directly等)引導(dǎo)：

　　I will tell you the news the instant I know.

　　Directly the teacher came in everyone was quiet.

　　Note:

　　① before除了可表示 “在…之前”外，還可用來(lái)強(qiáng)調(diào)主句所表達(dá)的時(shí)間、距離很長(zhǎng)或花費(fèi)的力量相比較大，可譯為“…才”。(“not … before” 可用來(lái)強(qiáng)調(diào)主句所表達(dá)的時(shí)間、距離很短或花費(fèi)的力量相比較小，可譯為“…就”)。

　　It was a long time before I got to sleep again.

　　They had not been married a month before they quarreled.

　　② 如果位于when引導(dǎo)的分句之前的主句使用過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)、過(guò)去完成時(shí)或“was/were about to, was/were on the point of”等結(jié)構(gòu)時(shí)，when表示突然發(fā)生某事，可譯為“正在…突然”或“剛…就”等。這時(shí)，不能夠用as或while來(lái)代替when。

　　I was walking on the street when I ran into my old friend John.

　　She had just fallen asleep when the telephone rang.

　　We were about to leave when it began to rain.

　　2) 條件狀語(yǔ)從句

　　條件狀語(yǔ)從句主要由以下連詞引導(dǎo)：if, unless, providing/provided (that), suppose/supposing (that), on condition (that), as/so long as, in case等。

　　So long as you work hard, you will surely achieve good results in examinations.

　　I shall return next Thursday unless something unexpected happens.

　　I will go provided that you go with me.

　　Please give this letter to John in case he comes.

　　3) 讓步狀語(yǔ)從句

　　讓步狀語(yǔ)從句主要由以下連詞引導(dǎo)：though, although, even if, even though, whatever, however, whoever, wherever, no matter how/ what/ where/ when等。以下介紹幾種較特殊的讓步狀語(yǔ)從句。

　　(1) while引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語(yǔ)從句多放在句首，while相當(dāng)于although，表示“盡管”，“雖然”。

　　While I admit I did it, I didn’t intend to.

　　While I understand what you say, I can’t agree with you.

　　(2) 短語(yǔ)“even now/then/so”相當(dāng)于“though it is/was true”，表示“盡管如此”，“盡管這樣”。

　　The fire was out, but even so, the smell of smoke was strong.

　　I’ve tried my best, but even now/then she is not satisfied.

　　(3) as引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語(yǔ)從句要倒裝。

　　Child as he was, he could speak four languages.

　　Hard as she tried, she failed to get the job.
