定语从句中的that和which用法区别【第一篇】

that和which在从句里都可以做宾语和主语，做宾语时可以省略。在定语从句中，有种说法叫"关宾省"，意思是关系代词在限制性定语从句中作宾语可以省略，不管是that，which，还是whom。但是which能引导非限制性定语从句，that则不行。

其次，记得以下只能用that的几种情况：

1. 当先行词为all, much, little, none及由any, every, some, no所构成的复合不定代词时。

如：

Please tell me anything that you know about the matter.

有关此事，凡是你所知道的请告诉我。

2. 当先行词被any, few, little, no, all, much, some等词修饰时。

如：You can take any seat that is free.

任何空着的座位你都可以坐。

3. 当先行词为序数词或被序数词所修饰时。

如：

This is the fourth film that has been shown in our school this term.

这是我们校本学期放映的第四部电影。

4. 当先行词为形容词最高级或被形容词最高级修饰时。

如：

This is the most interesting story book that I have ever read.

这是我读过的一本最有趣的故事书。

5. 当先行词被the very, the only, the last, the just, the same等修饰时。

如：

The only thing that we could do was to wait.

我们唯一能做的事就是等待。

注意：先行词被the same修饰时，关系代词也可用as。

如：I need the same book that / as you have.

我需要有你一样的书。

6. 当先行词既包含人又包含物时。

如： They are talking of the heroines and their deeds that interest them.

他们正在谈论他们感兴趣的女英雄及她们的事迹。

7. 当先行词是疑问代词who，which，what或主句以这些词开头时。

如：

Who that has ever worked together with him doesn’t admire him?

曾经和他一起工作过的谁不钦佩他？

8. 当先行词为主句表语或关系代词为从句表语时。

如：

Our school is no longer the place that it used to be.

我们的学校现在已不是过去的那个样子了。

9. 先行词为time时，当time表示次数，引导词用that, 可省略。 当表示时间，可用that或when引导，都可省略。

如：

I did't remember the exact time (when/that) I arrived in Shanghai last month.

我不记得上个月到达上海的确切时间了。

最后，请注意以下几种只能使用which的情况：

1. 在“介词+关系代词”结构中，关系代词必须用which。

如：

This is the reference book of which the teacher is speaking.

这就是老师正在谈及的那本参考书。

注意： 如果介词不放在修饰事物的限定性定语从句的句首， which就可换为that， 例如：

This is the question which/that we’ve had so much discussion about. =This is the question about which we’ve had so much discussion.

这就是我们已经多次讨论过的问题。

2. 先行词为“those+表事物的复数名词”时， 关系代词通常只用which而不用that。

如：You should grasp well those skills which may be used in the future work.

你应该掌握好这些可以用到未来工作中的技能。

最后，记得这个特殊情况吧：当先行词是表示原因或方式的名词时，可以用that引导定语从句，相当于介词+which，that可以省略。

如：

He didn’t like the way that (=in which) she speaks to his mother.

他不喜欢她对他的母亲那样说话。

Imagine the speed that (=at which) he drives the car.

很难想象，他开车开得那么快。

which的用法【第二篇】

1、在后置的非限制性定语从句中代替上文出现的事物或情况(单数或复数)。

2、在问句中作为疑问代词，在名词从句中作为连接代词用，其含义为“哪个、哪些”。

3、如果非限制性定语从句的先行词不是指主句内容，而是指具体的人、时间、地点，则不用which。

一、关系代词that 和which 在定语从句中作主语和宾语，放在先行词和定语从句之间，起联系作用。指物时，一般情况下可互换。如： Here is the pen that/which you lost yesterday.(that/which 指物作宾语) A plane is a machine that/which can fly.(that/which 指物，作主语) He is the most careful boy that I know.(that 指人，作宾语) The man that works in this room is a chemist.(that 指人，作主语)

二、that,which 在从句中作主语时，不能省略。作宾语时在口语中和非正式问题中经常省略。如上例1 和中的that,which 都可省略。

三、关系代词在主语从句中作主语时，从句的谓语动词的人称和数须和先行词一致。 Wheat is a plant that/which is grown in the north of China.

四、在定语从句中，关系代词that 和which 指物时，一般没有区别，但下列几种情况中不能互换：

只能用that 的情况：

a)先行词为 all,everything,nothing,anything,little 等不定代词时(something 后也可用which)： Is there anything (that) I can do for you in town? That’s all (that) I know.

b) 先行词被序数词所修饰时： The first thing (that) we should do is to work out a plan.

c) 先行词被形容词最高级所修饰时： This is one of the most exciting football games (that) I have ever seen. The nanjing yangtse river bridge is the longest bridge (that) they have ever seen.

d) 先行词 被only,very,no,any,same,little,one of 等词所修饰时： This is the only thing (that) we can do now. He gave me the same pen (that) he borrowed from me. Do you have any books that were written by Lu Xun? This is the very book (that) I want to read.

e) 当先行词中既有人又有物时： The man and the car (that) you want to see are all here. 你相见的人和车都在这里。

f) that 可指人，which 则不能： Who is the man that is reading the newspaper over there?

g) 在 “the time when”等结构和某些时间状语中，when 常被that 代替，而且that 往往省略： I may leave here any time I want to. During the time I was there I visited him twice.

h)way 后面可根由that 引导的定语从句，但that 一般都省略： That was the way she looked after us.

在下列情况中，只能用which:

a) 放在介词后面做介词宾语时： This is the question about which we’ve had so much discussion. 但是，如把介词放在从句的后部，这时which 就可换为that 并常省略。如上例可改为： This is the question (that) we’ve had so much discussion about.

b) 在非限制性定语从句，无论指物指人，都不能用that。指物时，只能用which 和其他关系代词。如： All the books there,which have beautiful pictures in them,were written by him.

从句中which的用法【第三篇】

This is the pen which was given by my friend.

先行词 指物代替先行词在定语从句中充当主语

This is the hotel in which you will stay.

(2) 如有两个定语从句，其中一句的关系代词是that,另一句宜于用which.

Let me show you the novel that I borrowed from the liberary which was newly open (新开放) to us.

注意2that \which在代物时常常可以通用，但有时只宜于用that ,不用which.

(1) 先行词是形容词最高级或者它的前面有形容词最高级时

This is the best that has been used against air pollution(反对空气污染) in cities.

English is the most difficult subject that you will learn during these years.

(2) 先行词是序数词，或它的前面有一个序数词时

He is the last person that I want to see.

(3) 主句中已有疑问词时

Which is the bike that you lost?

(4) 先行词既有人又有物时

The bike and its rider that had run over (撞倒了)an old man were taken to the police station.

(5) 先行词是all,much,little,something,everything,anything,nothing,none,the one等代词时

You should hand in all that you have.

We haven’t got much that we can offer you.

I mean the one that you talked about just now.

(6) 先行词前面有only,any,few,little,no,all,one of,the same,the very等词修饰时

The only thing that we can do is to give you some money.

Li Ming is the only one that got full marks (满分)in our class.

Li Ming is one of the students that want to be teachers in our class.

(7) 有两个定语从句，其中一个关系代词已用which,另外一个宜用that

Edison built up a factory(办了一个工厂) which produced things that had never been seen before.

定语从句的关系副词 Where的用法：若先行词指地点且其在定语从句中充当地点状语。

This is the house+I was born in the house.(=I was born there)

介词短语 副词

=This is the house where I was born.这就是我在那儿出生的房子。

先行词 关系副词

in which I was born.

介词+关系代词

which I was born in.

关系代词

这里作介宾的which和that可以省略

that I was born in

which定语从句的用法【第四篇】

一、which前面有逗号，逗号前面是个名词，which就近指代那个名词。

（1） Tankfield emailed Pea some photos, which did not cheer Pea up.

which就近指代photos，定语从句中谓语动词did not cheer (Pea up)的发出者即从句主语即先行词photos，是photos没让豌豆家属高兴起来。

（2） Tankfield emailed Pea some photos, which Pea did not find interesting.

which就近指代photos，photos是定语从句中的宾语，把定语从句还原成一个完整句就是Pea did not find the photos interesting.

可以看到，上面两个句子都可以以that为关系代词改写，即

(1)Tankfield emailed Pea some photos that did not cheer Pea up.

(2)Tankfield emailed Pea some photos that Pea did not find interesting.

改写与原版区别在哪儿？就在一个逗号。which前面是名词，名词和which之间没逗号的，在GMAT语法里算错。

二、which前面是介词，介词前面是名词，which就近指代介词前的那个名词，名词和介词之间有无逗号均可。

Tankfield once lent Pea a book from which Pea glimpsed the basics of genes.

这个句子可以“拆”成如下两句：（每个定语从句都可以拆成两句，以先行词为拆分点）

(1)Tankfield once lent Pea a book.

(2)Pea glimpsed the basics of genes from the book.

先行词实际上是定语从句中介词的宾语，这时，需要把介词提前，避免如下表达：

(1)Tankfield once lent Pea a book, which Pea glimpsed the basics of genes from. (XXX)

(2)Tankfield once lent Pea a book that Pea glimpsed the basics of genes from. (XXX)

上中学的时候学过，which引导的定语从句叫“非限制性定语从句”，是不是？它怎么就“非限制性”了？回顾上述GMAT语法规定which有且仅有的两种用法，which指的都是就近的名词，从句其实还是限制性的。

所谓非限制性呢，是说which指逗号之前一套主谓所描述的情况，以逗号前的一个完整句为先行词。比如：

(1)Tankfield might never care to say Happy Birthday to Pea, which was rather sad.

(2)Tankfield might never care to say Happy Birthday to Pea, which Pea did not refuse to acknowledge to herself any more.

注意，这样的非限制性定语从句在GMAT语法中是不成立的，关于which，GMAT语法考试只认可上述两种限制性用法。那么，在GMAT语法考试规则范围内，用什么方法能够表达出原来学过的非限制性定语从句的意思来呢？

分成两句或做出同位语来都是可以的，当然，需要先找出一个名词把原来非限制性定语从句的先行词（即那个完整的句子）概括出来。

一、分成两句

Tankfield might never care to say Happy Birthday to Pea. The fact was rather sad.

Tankfield might never care to say Happy Birthday to Pea. Pea did not refuse to acknowledge the fact to herself any more.

二、做同位语

Tankfield might never care to say Happy Birthday to Pea, the fact, rather sad,beingwhat Pea did not refuse to acknowledge to herself any more.

[解析]this不能引导定语从句修饰前面的school，介词后的关系代词不能是that（“考点72：that引导的定语从句的用法”中将有此考点的具体介绍），因此应排除选项B和D;由于此处which指代前面整个主句，全句意为“他在当地的一所语法学校接受教育之后，又去了剑桥。”，介词应选用after，因此应进一步排除选项A而选出C。

附：定语从句中的that和which用法区别

1、先行若是不定代，that就把which踹

春雨惊春清谷天，夏满芒夏暑相连，秋处露秋寒霜降，冬雪雪冬小大寒。上半年是六廿一，下半年来八廿三，每月两节日期定，最多相差一二天。当先行词为anything, everything, nothing, all, any, much, many, one等不定代词时，只能使用“that”， 不用“which”。

例：Is there anything that I can do for you? 我能给你做点什么吗？

2、先行词前有两数，就用that定无误

当先行词是基数词或序数词修饰时，只能使用“that”， 不用“which”。

例句：

That is the second time that I have been to Japan.

那是我去日本的第二次。

The two buildings that lay on the River Thames fell down last week.

坐落在泰晤士河岸边的那两座大楼上星期倒塌了。

3、先行词前最高级，还用that必无疑

当先行词是形容词最高级或被形容词最高级修饰时，只能使用“that”， 不用“which”。

例句：

This is the most wonderful time that I have ever had.

这是我度过的最美好的时光。

4、句中若有there be, that应把which替

例：

There is no evidence that animals possess a mysterious sixth-sense allowing them to predict natural disasters.

说动物拥有神秘的第六感，可以预知自然灾害，这是没有根据的。

5、先行主中做表语，避免重复从句里

例句：

1）This is not the hospital that it used to be.

这已经不再是以前那座医院了。

2）Mr Thomson is not the man that he was.

汤姆森先生已经不再是以前的他了。

解析：定语从句的先行词均在主句中做表语。

例句：

Which is the course that we are to take ？

我们要学哪门课？

解析：句中已有which,后面不再用which,避免重复用that。

6、先行词前有just/the only/very/same/last等词，关系代词用that,不用which

例句：

1) The North Pole is the only place that you can see polar bears.

北极是唯一能见到北极熊的地方。

2）This is the same bike that he lost.

这就是他丢了的那辆自行车。

注意区分：

3) This is the same bike as he lost.

这辆自行车和他丢的那辆一样。（但不是）
