【归纳】

（1）2、7、9及10句为关系代词whom和which引导的定语从句。whom的先行词为人，在从句中充当宾语；which的先行词可以是地点，也可以是表物的其他名词，在句中充当宾语或主语。

（2）1、3、4、5、6及8句则为关系副词when和where引导的定语从句。关系副词when 的先行词为表时间的名词；而关系副词where的先行词为表地点的名词。when和where在从句中分别充当时间状语和地点状语。

关系副词（when/where/why）引导的限制性定语从句。

▶We will never forget the days when we stayed at that beautiful countryside.

我们永远不会忘记在那个美丽乡村呆的那些日子。

▶The place where they will go is their hometown.

他们要去的地方是他们的故乡。

▶Can you explain the reason why you don’t want to help him? 你能解释一下你不想帮助他的理由吗？

①Because of the financial crisis, days are gone _______ local 5-star hotels charged 6, 000 yuan for one night.

［2009江苏，23］

A. if

B. when

C. which

D. since

【解析】选B。句意：由于金融危机，当地五星级酒店一晚收费6 000元的日子不复存在了。when引导的从句作days的定语。

②I have reached a point in my life _______ I am supposed to make decisions of my own.

［2009浙江, 14］

A. which

B. where

C. how

D. why

【解析】选Ｂ。考查分离式定语从句。当先行词是point, situation, case 表情形、情况等意思的词时，而从句中并不缺少主语、宾语时，常会使用关系副词where, 不要受in my life 的影响；故选B。

③—What do you think of teacher, Bob？

—I find it fun and challenging. It is a job _______ you are doing something serious but interesting.

［2009北京，26］

A. where

B. which

C. when

D. that

【解析】选A。考查定语从句的用法。定语从句主谓宾完整，说明应该填关系副词，先行词为a job，定语从句的意思是在这个工作中……，所以用where引导定语从句。

二、关系副词when, where，why在定语从句中分别作时间、地点、原因状语，且可根据其在句中的搭配关系, 转换成相应的“介词+关系代词”的结构。

▶The day will come when (=on which) we’ll win the final victory. 我们赢得最后胜利的日子将会到来。

▶We know the place where (=in which) our teacher lives.

我们知道老师住的地方。

▶Do you know the reason why (=for which) he was so sad? 你知道他那么难过的原因吗？

▶I don’t like the way that / in which you speak to her.

我不喜欢你和她说话的方式。

④Wind power is an ancient source of energy _______ we may return in the near future.

［2010上海, 38］

A. on which

B. by which

C. to which

D. from which

【解析】选C。句意：风能是一种古老的能源，在不久的将来我们可能还会利用它。return to 回到，恢复到，其中介词to 前置，构成介词+关系代词的形式，故选C。

Ⅰ. 单项填空

1. I’m going to visit the factory _______ your brothe r worked a few years ago.

［2011曲靖高一检测］

A. that

B. where

C. which

D. what

2. The village he grew up _______ has been replaced by a factory.

A. in it

B. in

C. in that

D. in which

3. She’ll never forget the day on _______ she found her son who had gone missing two years before.

［2011长沙高一检测］

A. that

B. which

C. where

D. when

【规律总结】在定语从句中，先行词为时间或地点名词时，若从句中关系词需作介词的宾语，需用关系代词which来引导定语从句。

4. When Elias met Mandela, the black was in a situation _______ they were treated badly.

A. which

B. where

C. when

D. that

【方法技巧】不一样的situation

situation一词既可指物也可指地点。若想确定它到底指什么，关键看从句中缺少什么成分。若缺少地点状语，则指地点, 这一用法在高考中多有考查；若缺少主语或宾语，则指物。在此题中, 从句中缺少地点状语，故situation则为表地点的先行词。常见的既可指物也可指地点的名词还有：case，point, family, race等。例如：
