(二) 正誤辨析 ��

　　[誤] I won't tell you the name of the person who teach me English�� ��

　　[正] I won't tell you the name of the person who teaches me English�� ��

　　[析] 在定語從句中，關系代詞作主語時，從它本身看不出其數的形式，這時要由它的先行詞決定。這里who 應由 the person 單數決定，應該用單數謂語動詞。又如：I who am a student�� want to find a spare time job�边@里的 who 應與 I 是一致的，所以其謂語動詞應該用am。��

　　[誤] We talked about the things and the people who we met during the Second World War�� ��

　　[正] We talked about the things and the people that we met during the Second World War�� ��

　　[析] 這里的關系代詞不要用 who， 因為其先行詞有兩個一個是 things (物)，而另一個是people (人)，這時既不可用 who， 又不可用 which， 因前者只能用于先行詞是人的情況下，而后者則用于先行詞是物的情況下，所以只能用 that， 因為它的先行詞既可以是人又可以是物。��

　　[誤] The book， that I bought yesterday， was very good��

　　[正] The book， which I bought yesterday， was very good�� ��

　　[析] 先行詞與定語從句被逗號分割開來時，即作為非限制性定語從句。在非限制性定語從句中 which， when， who， whom， where， when， whose 等都可以和限制性定語從句中的作用一樣，而獨有 that 不易用于非限制性定語從句。��

　　[誤] The dictionary which I lent it yesterday is a very useful tool�� ��

　　[正] The dictionary which I lent yesterday is a very useful tool�� ��

　　[析] 關系代詞在定語從句中是要起語法作用的，它不是作主語就是作賓語。雖然在作賓語時它的位置由原來的賓語位置移到了句首，但它的作用依然存在，而且在原賓語位置上不能再出現賓語。��

　　[誤] The teacher I want to learn English from is the one which comes from America

　　[正] The teacher I want to learn English from is the one who comes from America

　　[析] the one， anyone， those 作代詞并且是指某人、物時，其關系代詞不能用 which 應用 who。��

　　[誤] This is the room in that the old man lives�� ��

　　[正] This is the room in which the old man lives�� ��

　　[正] This is the room which the old man lives in�� ��

　　[正] This is the room that the old man lives in�� ��

　　[析] that 不能緊跟在介詞后作介詞賓語，但如果介詞不前置仍放于句尾，則可用 that 作引導詞，而且可以省略。如： This is the room the old man lives in�豹�

　　[誤] I can do everything which is good for you�� ��

　　[正] I can do everything that is good for you�� ��

　　[析] 在先行詞是 all， much， little， something， everything， anything， nothing， none， the one 等不定代詞時，雖然它們指的是物體，但不要用 which 而用 that 作定語從句的引導詞。��

　　[誤] The only thing which the students can do is studying hard�� ��

　　[正] The only thing that the students can do is studying hard�� ��

　　[析] 在先行詞前有 only， any， few， little， no， all， one of 等詞修飾時，雖然先行詞指的是物，也不要用 which 作關系代詞，而要用 that。��

　　[誤] This is the first American film which I've ever seen�� ��

　　[正] This is the first American film that I've ever seen�� ��

　　[析] 在先行詞是序數詞，或由序數詞修飾時，其關系代詞不可用 which�� 這樣的用法還有在形容詞最高級修飾的先行詞之后，如： This is the best book that I have ever seen

　　[誤] He is from Africa, that we can see from the colour of the skin�� ��

　　[正] He is from Africa, as we can see from the colour of the skin�� ��

　　[析] 當 as 或 which 引導非限制性定語從句時，它可能沒有明確的先行詞，它們所指代的是前面整個句子。如例題應譯為他是從非洲來這個事情是可以從其膚色上看出的。��
