【自我归纳】
通过观察我们可以发现:A组句子中的定语从句都是限制性定语从句,B组句子中的定语从句都是非限制性定语从句。限制性定语从句与非限制性定语从句主要有以下区别:
1. 形式不同
限制性定语从句与主句之间不能用逗号隔开(A组句子),非限制性定语从句与主句之间通常用逗号隔开(B组句子)。
2. 作用不同
限制性定语从句对先行词进行修饰和限制,如果去掉,主句的意思就会不完整、不明确或失去意义(A组句子),非限制性定语从句对先行词进行________,与主句的关系不十分密切,如果去掉,主句的意思仍然完整(B组句子)。
3. 关系词不同
限制性定语从句可以由who, whom, that, which, whose, where, when, why及“介词 which / whom” 等来引导 (A组句子);非限制性定语从句通常由who, whom, which, whose, when, where及“介词 which / whom”等来引导(B组句子)。另外,在限制性定语从句中,关系代词在从句中作________ 时可以省略(A组句2、句4),而在非限制性定语从句中关系词一律不能省略(B组句子)。
4. 关系代词指代不同
限制性定语从句的关系代词一般指代一个名词或代词(A组句1至句5、句9、句10);非限制性定语从句的关系代词则既可指代一个名词或代词(B组句1至句5、句9、句10),也可以指代整个主句(B组句6)。
