２００８年高考与定语从句

在复合句中,修饰某一名词或代词的从句,称为定语从句,也叫形容词性从句。定语从句是历年高考的重点项目。例如：

2008年高考单项选择“定语从句”试题就有：

1. The road conditions there turned out to be very good, ____ was more than we could expect. (08全国卷Ⅱ16)

A. it B. what C. which D. that

简析：答案C。题意为：“那里的路况出奇的好，比我们所预料的好的多。”分析从句的结构：which是主语，was是谓语。比较状语从句的结构：we是主语，could expect是谓语，其宾语被省略。通过分析从句的结构可以看出，句子中缺主语，所以选择关系代词which。

高考考点：考查定语从句的用法。

易错提醒：不注意分析句子结构易误选B，不知道非限定性定语从句中不能用that 则易误选D。

提示：在复习有关定语从句的知识时，一定要学会分析从句的结构，理清其基本用法和特殊用法，如关系词在从句中充当什么成分，关系代词that和which用法区别等问题要特别注意。

2. We went through a period ____ communications were very difficult in the rural areas.(08上海卷38)

A. which B. whose C. in which D. with which

简析：C。 此题考查定语从句的用法。period后面的定语从句中缺少时间状语，要用when，而此题中没有when，所以要选择in which相当于in the period,表示时间，作句中的状语。which要在定语从句中作主语或宾语，而此处的“介词+which”中要选择介词in,而不选择with。定语从句中“介词+which”中介词的选择，一要看先行词，二要看与定语从句谓语动词的搭配，三要看句意。又如：

The English play ____ my students acted at the New Years party was a great success. (NMET 2004,第23题)

A. for which B. at which C. in which D. on which

答案：C。考查动词与介词的搭配，act in the English play。

又如：

3. Villagers here depend on the fishing industry， ____ there wont be much work. (08上海春卷38)

A. where B. that C. by which D. without which

简析：答案D。

4. They will fly to Washington, ____ they plan to stay for two or three days. (08重庆卷21)

A. where B. there C. which D. when

简析：A。本题考查定语从句的用法。先行词 Washington 为地点，在从句中作不及物动词stay的地点状语。

5. Occasions are quite rare ____ I have the time to spend a day with my kids.(08山东卷26)

A. who B. which C. why D. when

简析：D。此题考查定语从句关系词的选择。此题关键是要根据句意看出是定语从句。句意为：我有时间和孩子们一起度过一天的机会很少。occasions是先行词，所选关系词在定语从句中要作时间状语，故可排除其他选项。

6. The Science Museum, ____ we visited during a recent trip to Britain, is one of Londons tourist attractions. (08江苏卷24)

A. which B. what C. that D. where

简析：答案A。题意为：“在最近去英国的旅行中我们参观了科学博物馆，它是伦敦最吸引游客的地方之一。”分析从句的结构，we是主语，visit是谓语，during a recent trip to Britain是状语，visit后缺宾语，所以选择关系代词which。

9. Yesterday she sold her car, ____ she bought a month ago.

(08浙江卷08)

A. whom B. where C. that D. which
