  1. Unit Eight

  2. Language Structure See the following sentences and pay attention to the grammar rules they use: • 1. 12 October 1492 was the day when Columbus landed in America. • 2. A kitchenette is a small room where people cook their meals. • 3. I like the way she spoke. • Is that the reason why we have tests and quizzes all the time? • 5. In 1956, the number of minority nationality students in institutions of higher learning increased a twenty-one thousand and nine hundred, and it was more than seven and a half times that of 1952.

  3. 定语从句: (Attributive Clause / Relative Clause) 1. 定义：一个句子做定语叫做定语从句。E.g. She is our  new teacher who has just come back from the United States.      2. 先行词：被修饰的部分叫先行词。先行词可以是一个词，也可以是一个句子。定语从句一般要在先行词之后。E.g. a. This is the baby  whom you will look  after.     b. They invited me to visit their country, which is very kind of them. 3. 关系词 1)关系代词：that, which, who, whom, as, 在从句中作主语，宾语或表语；作宾语时一般可省略；whose在从句中作定语。 E.g. a. That was all  that I wanted to tell you about .     b. A scientist is a person who does scientific research.                   c. The house  whose door is brown is mine.           

  4. 2)关系副词：where, when, why 在从句中作状语。 a. This is the school  where I studied twenty years ago.                    b. I thought of my childhood  when I lived in the village.                       c. That's the reason  why I'm not in favour of your plan.   4. 该用关系副词还是关系代词先行词是表示时间或地点的名词时，并不都是用关系副词引导，而是要看关系词在从句中所作的成份。作状语时，用关系副词；作宾语时，仍然要用关系代词。a. She is going to spend the summer holidays in Qingdao,  where she has some relatives. b. This is the  place  which  I visited last year. c.  Did you still remember the days  when  we spent together in Hainan?  d. October 1st is  the day  which  we Chinese people will never forget.

  5. 2)关系副词：where, when, why 在从句中作状语。 　 关系副词可代替的先行词是时间、地点或理由的名词，在从句中作状语。A. when, where, why　 关系副词when, where, why的含义相当于“介词+ which”结构，因此常常和“介词+ which”结构交替使用，E.g. ：a. There are occasions when (on which) one must yield. b. Beijing is the place where (in which) I was born. c. Is this the reason why (for which) he refused our offer? B. that代替关系副词that可以用于表示时间、地点、方式、理由的名词后取代when, where, why和“介词+ which”引导的定语从句，在口语中that常被省略，E.g. ：His father died the year (that / when / in which) he was born. He is unlikely to find the place (that / where / in which) he lived forty years ago.
