回憶一下定語從句在你記憶中第一次出現的時候,是初中,還是高中?面對現實不要懷疑,定語從句,會一直在英語考試里頻繁出現,在考研英語里面也是重中之重,甚至在四級聽力選項就已經開始現身了。下面上海高頓考研網就來重點介紹一下定語從句。
考研英語如何利用定語從句解題
(一)羅列下定語從句在這幾個考試當中的身影:

考研英語翻譯:
He adds humbly that perhaps he was“superior to the common run of men in noticing things which easily escape attention,and in observing them carefully.”(2008-翻譯第49題)
(二)定語從句應該如何從哪里學起?
1)我們先來復習定語從句的結構
先行詞+引導詞+從句部分
2)我們先來回憶一下定語從句的引導詞:
關系代詞:that,which,who,whom,whose
關系副詞:when,where,why
3)何時用關系代詞,何時用關系副詞:
關系代詞:當先行詞充當主語、賓語或表語成分的時候
關系副詞:當先行詞充當狀語成分,從句內部主干成分完整的時候
(三)如何利用定語從句解題?
【例1】Teenagers are especially self-conscious and need the _________ that comes from achieving success and knowing that their accomplishments are admired by others.(考研英語2003年完形第25題)
[A]assistance
<B>guidance
[C]confidence
[D]tolerance
【解析】“that comes from achieving success and knowing that their accomplishments are admired by others”是一個由that作關系代詞引導的定語從句,先行詞在從句當中充當主語。利用定語從句與先行詞的意義一致性,我們只需要充分理解定從句意,與選項進行比對,即可得出答案。由“achieving success”與“their accomplishments are admired by others”得知,選項A“confidence(自信)”符合句意。
【例2】(2013-大作文-英二)
這個圖表反映的是,即將畢業(yè)的學生更關注于兼職工作。
譯文:This chart demonstrates that seniors who are going to graduate pay special attention to part-time jobs.
(四)我們應該把定語從句掌握到什么程度才有安全感?
①我們應該能對定語從句的引導詞有敏銳的識別能力,并能準確判斷出引導詞左邊的詞為先行詞;
②我們能把定語從句完整斷句出來,并準確知道它的起始位置;
③在英語寫作中,我們能寫出語法正確的定語從句。
