一、定语从句
限制性定语从句与先行词关系密切,对先行词起限制作用,前后无逗号隔开,如果去掉限制性定语从句,原句意义不完整.从句由who、whom、whose、which或that引导.
非限制性定语从句与主句的关系不很密切,通常是对主句做进一步说明或解释,并且用逗号分开.非限制性定语从句去掉后,原句剩余部分意义仍然完整.非限制性定语从句不能用that引导,只能用who、whom、whose或which引导.
例子:
The traverlers who knew about the floods took another road.
知道发大水的旅客走了另一条路.(指部分旅客,限制性)
The traverlers, who knew about the floods ,took another road.
旅客都知道发大水了,他们走了另一条路.(指全部的旅客,非限制性)
