①倒装（定语从句发生倒装）

山顶有座庙，庙里住着个老和尚。

On the top of the mountain stands a temple, in which lives an old monk.

(in which是表地点的介词短语，放于句首引起完全倒装)

汉语语序跟英语是不是完全一样？英语跟汉语的语法有很多相通之处。

②插入（定语从句中加入插入语）

He helped me though he was busy, which I think was very moving.

尽管他很忙他帮了我，我认为这是很令人感动的。

（I think为插入语，插在从句的主谓之间）

③省略（定语从句省略关系词）

I don’t like the gift (that/which) he gave me.

我不喜欢他给我的礼物。(关系代词作宾语可省略)

④数量（表示数量关系的定语从句）

I have read many books, most of which are novels.

我读了很多书，其中大多数是小说。

There are 60 students in our class, most of whom are girls.

在我们班有60名学生，其中大多数是女生。

（基数词，序数词，分数，百分数，不定代词，形容词的比较级或最高级都可以构成类似数量关系）

⑤原因（高分句式：The reason why…is that…）

The reason why he was late was that he missed the early bus.

他迟到的原因是他错过了早班车。

（ why he was late是定语从句；that he missed the early bus是表语从句）.

⑥主谓（注意定语从句中的主谓一致）

He is one of the students who were praised by the teacher.

他是被老师表扬的学生之一。（很多学生被表扬，用were）

He is the only/very one of the students who was praised by the teacher.

他是唯一一个背老师表扬的学生。（只有他一个被表扬，用was）
