定语从句只能用that的情况有六种,下面小编整理了相关内容,来看一看吧!
1、不定代词 anything, nothing, everything,all,much,few,any,little为先行词时;
Finally, the thief handed everything that he had stolen to the police. 最终,小偷偷的所有东西全部交给了警察。
2、先行词为 the only, the very, the just时;
He is the very man that helped the girl out of the water. 他从水中救起了那个女孩。
3、先行词为序数词、数词、形容词或最高级时;
The first English book that I read was "The Prince and the Pauper" by Mark Twain. 我读的第一本书是马克·吐温写的《王子与贫儿》。
4、先行词既有人又有物时;
He talked about the teachers and school that he visited. 他在讲他以前访问过的学校和老师。
5、当主句是以who或which开始的特殊疑问句时,为避免重复用that;
Who is the person that is standing at the gate? 那个站在门口的人是谁?
6、关系代词作表语时;
He is not the man that he used to be. 他以前不是这样的人。
句法功能主要是充当定语。在英语中,关系从句通常位于它所修饰的词(组)之后。被关系从句修饰的词(组)叫做先行词(英语:antecedent),引导关系从句的词称为关系词,关系词指代先行词并在关系从句中充当一定的成分。例如:
This is the book which interests me.(“which interests me”是关系从句,修饰先行词“book”,而关系词“which”指代先行词“book”并在关系子句中充当主语。这句话可以拆分为两个句子来理解:“This is the book.”和“The book interests me.”)
