定语从句讲解

定语从句是用来说明单词（名词，代词）的。
           被说明的单词：先行词位于引导词之前。
关系代词：who（主格）、whom（宾格）、whose（属格）、that、which、as用来引导定语从句，故也称为定语从句引导词。

限定性定语从句：先行词不可缺少。
非限定性定语从句：去掉先行词不会影响主句。

简单来说，一句话，若需要对其中的单词进行解释说明，则一般可用关系代词（先行词）：that + 从句 加以解释说明。

which和that可以互换，见例：

• The house in which we live is very large. $⟺$The house which/that we live in is very large. 我们住的房子非常大。
• This is the reference book of which the teacher is speaking. $⟺$This is the reference book which/that the teacher is speaking of . 这就是老师正在谈及的那本参考书。
• This is the question about which we’ve had so much discussion. $⟺$This is the question which/that we’ve had so much discussion about. 这就是我们已经多次讨论过的问题。
