who, whom, that引导的先行词指人的定语从句

who，whom和that作为定语从句的引导词，称为关系代词。

我们现在来看一下先行词指人时，这四个关系代词的使用问题。

下面用句子合并的方法来分析。

一、定语从句用who或that做引导词，在从句中做主语。

把句②变为句①的定语从句，句①中的the boy做定语从句的先行词。

在句②中he指句①中提到的the boy也就是定语从句的先行词，he在句中做主语，因此要用who和that引导定语从句，代替句②中的he，也就是说he就不能出现在定语从句中了。

由此得到句③The boy who broke the window is called Jack.
注意：一般情况下定语从句要紧挨先行词。

请把下面每组的两句话合并为一句。

The person must pay for it. / He lost the library book.
→The person who lost the library book must pay for it.
The boy is very clever. / He is wearing the black jacket.
→The boy who is wearing the black jacket is very clever.
二、定语从句用who，whom或that做引导词，在从句中做宾语。

因为是做宾语，所以这些引导词可以省略。

请分析下面两个简单句：
句①Do you know the young man？
句②We met him at the gate.
把句②变为句①的定语从句，句①中的the young man做定语从句的先行词。

在句②中him指句①中提到的the young man也就是定语从句的先行词，him在句中做宾语，因此要用whom，that或who引导定语从句，代替句②中的him，也就是说him就不能出现在定语从句中了。

由此得到句③
Do you know the young man who/that/whom we met at the gate？(who/that/whom可以省略，句子可以写作：Do you know the young man we met at the gate？)
请把下面每组的两句话合并为一句。

Mr. Lee has come. / You want to see him.
→Mr. Lee who/whom/that you want to see has come.
This is the girl.
He worked with her in the office.
→This is the girl whom /that / who he worked with in the office.
