“the way+从句”结构的意义及用法
首先让我们来看下面这个句子：
Read the following passage and talk about it with your classmates. Try to tell what you think of Tom and of the way the children treated him.
在这个句子中，the way是先行词，后面是省略了关系副词that 或in which的定语从句。
下面我们将叙述“the way+从句”结构的用法。
1．the way之后，引导定语从句的关系词是that而不是how,因此，<<现代英语惯用法词典>>中所给出的下面两个句子是错误的：This is the way how it happened. This is the way how he always treats me.
2. 在正式语体中，that可被in which所代替；在非正式语体中，that则往往省略。由此我们得到the way后接定语从句时的三种模式：1) the way +that-从句2) the way +in which-从句3) the way +从句
例如：The way(in which ,that) these comrades look at problems is wrong.这些同志看问题的方法不对。
The way(that ,in which)you’re doing it is completely crazy.你这么个干法，简直发疯。
We admired him for the way in which he faces difficulties.
Wallace and Darwin greed on the way in which different forms of life had begun.华莱士和达尔文对不同类型的生物是如何起源的持相同的观点。
This is the way (that) he did it. I liked the way (that) she organized the meeting.
3.the way(that)有时可以与how(作“如何”解)通用。例如：
That’s the way (that) she spoke. = That’s how she spoke.
I should like to know the way/how you learned to master the fundamental technique within so short a time.
4．the way的其它用法：以上我们讲的都是用作先行词的the way，下面我们将叙述它的一些用法。
1)用作as或according as,引导状语从句，常见于美国英语。如：
I like it the way it is.
Even today, political maps reflect the world the way we want it to look.
时至今日，政治地图不是按我们想要看到的那样来反映世界。
Kings played maps the way we play board games.君主们玩地图就象我们玩棋子一样。
I always thought she was a common-sense person who discussed things the way they ought to be discussed.我一向认为好是个明达的人，讨论问题总是该怎样讨论就怎样讨论。
The way I look at it, it’s not what you do that matter so much.依我看，重要的并不是你做什么。
No wonder that girl despises me, the way you encourage her.难怪那位姑娘看不起我，原来是你在作怪。
2)用作that，引导主语从句，常见于美国英语。如：
It’s a sin the way he keeps on doing it.他不停这样做，实在是一种罪过。(=It’s a sin that he keeps…)
It was pitiful the way he kept complaining to his wife.他不停地向妻子诉苦，真够可怜的。
3)用作how(作“多么”解)或how much，引导名词性从句。如：
No one except you, not even the children, can understand the way I miss Dave.除了你以外，没有人会明白我多么思念大卫，甚至连孩子们也不会明白。
4)在下面的句子中，way意为“道路”，故后面的介词用了by：
There was a high rock at the far end so that there was only one way into this place the way by which we had come.那一头有一块高大的岩石、所以只有一条路能走进这块地方，那就是我们进来的那条路。
5)下面句子中的way意为“方式、方法”，但前面是限定词any 和no,所以后面的介词也没用in：
I can never hear the lovely noise of the sea never again see the beautiful flowers and the sun! Tell me, grandmother, is there any way by which I can get a soul?我再也听不到大海可爱的涛声，再也看不见美丽的花朵和太阳!告诉我，祖母，有什么办法让我得到一个灵魂呢？
“One red rose is all I want,” cried the nightingale,“ only one red rose! Is there no way by which I can get it?”“我只要一朵红蔷薇，”夜莺叫道，“只是一朵红蔷薇!我就没有办法可以得到它吗
（一）状语从句概述 定义状语从句用作状语，是起副词作用的句子。 位置状语从句可以放在主句之前，也可以放在主句之后，时间、条件、原因和让步状语从句放在句首时需要用 逗号和主句隔开。 分类根据其作用可以分为时间、地点、原因、条件、目的、让步、方式和比较等状语从句。 作用它可以修饰谓语、非谓语动词、定语、状语和整个句子。 （二）状语从句详解 1. 时间状语从句 引导词用法示例 when 意为“当…的时候”。When 引导从句的谓语动词可以 是延续性动词，也可以是 瞬间动词。并且when有 时表示“就在那时”A liar is not believed when he speaks the truth.说谎者讲真话时也没有人相信。When he arrives, I’ll call you. When you laugh and smile, your body relaxes. while 意为“在…的时候，在…的 同时”。While引导从句的 谓语动词必须是延续性While I was standing at the window, I saw several boys running along the street.
的，发生时间较长，并强调主句和从句的动作同时发生（或者相对应）。While 有时还可以表示对比。While John was watching TV, his wife was cooking. as 意为“一边…一边…”。As 引导的动作是延续性的， 发生时间较短，一般用于 主句和从句动作同时发 生；as也可以强调一前一 后。The writer was angry as he was travelling on a train to London because someone had invaded his “space”. He smiled as he stood up. after 意为“在…之后”。表示主句 动作发生在从句动作之 后。主句与从句的动作时 间关系与before引导的从 句相反。With many hungry visitors waiting, don’t stay too long at your table after you have finished. If an early exit is necessary, you can leave after a scene is over. before 意为“在…之前”。引导的从 句不用否定形式的谓语， 并且当before引导的从句 位于主句之后，有时译成 “就，才”。当主句用将来时，You can’t watch TV before you finish your homework. Before it ended, the theatre was almost empty. My father had left for Canada

让步状语从句的讲解与用法让步状语从句是状语从句中的一种，其本身也是状语从句.一般翻译为“尽管……”或“即使……"，就是我们日常生活中用的“退一步说……"的感觉。?使用的连词?引导让步状语从句的连词主要有以下这些:thouｇh, ａlthｏｕgh，wｈiｌe, as； eｖen if, eｖｅn though； wｈeｔheｒ．..ｏr。.。；ｎo matter+疑 问词，疑问词－eｖer，regａｒdless oｆ+名词/名词 短语／名词从句,ｄespite，in spite of.切记alｔｈougｈ不可与bｕｔ连用 用法 （1)ｔｈough， although表示“虽然，纵然"之意。这两个连词意思大致相同，在一般情况下可以互换使用.在口语中，thoｕgh较常使用，alｔhouｇh比thｏugｈ正式，二者都可与ｙｅt，ｓtｉll或never，the less连用，但不能与but连用。 例如：Alｔhoｕｇｈ/Ｔｈｏuｇh ｈe ｗas ｅｘhａｕsｔeｄ, (stｉlｌ） he ｋept on worｋｉng。虽然他已经精疲力竭了,但仍然继续工作. (2)as， tｈoｕgｈ表示“虽然……但是",“纵使……"之意。 aｓ引导的让步状语从句必须以部分倒装的形式出现，被倒装的部分可以是表语、状语或动
词原形，thoｕgｈ也可用于这样的结构中，但ａｌｔｈ ｏｕgｈ不可以这样用。?例如：Ｏbjｅct aｓyou may, Ｉ’ll gｏ。（=Ｔｈough/Aｌｔhｏugh yｏu may object, I’ll ｇo。）纵使你反对,我也要去。（3）ｅｖｅn if，ｅvｅｎｔhｏｕgｈ表示“即使……”,“纵使……”之意，含有一种假设。这 两个复合连词的意思基本相同。它们常互换使用,但意 义有细微差别。even if引导的让步从句含有强烈的假 定性，可用来表示与事实相反的假设，但不能用来描述 已经发生的事实.而ｅven tｈｏuｇh引导让步状语从句 时,是以从句的内容为先决条件的，即说话人肯定了从 句的事实，表示已经发生了的事。?例如: We’ll make a ｔｒiｐｅven ｉf／tｈough thｅｗea ｔheｒ is ｂad. 即使天气不好，我们也要作一次旅行. ?(4）whethｅｒ．..or。。。表示“不论是否……”， “不管是……还是……"之意。由这一个复合连词 引导的让步状语从句旨在说明正反两方面的可能性都不 会影响主句的意向或结果。 例如: Ｙoｕ'll ｈave tｏａｔｔeｎd thｅｃer ｅｍony whetｈer you're fｒeｅｏr bｕsy．不 管你忙不忙,都要参加这个典礼。?Wｈeｔheｒ you ｂelieve iｔ or ｎot， it＇s true．无论你是否相
定语从句与强调句的区别 1. 强调句型中的it 属于引导词，本身没有意义。如果去掉is／was ... that结构，句子结构仍然完整，句意也完整。定语从句中的it 是指示代词，作主句的主语。 如果去掉it is／was ...that，句子结构不完整，意思也不完整。 It is a question that needs careful consideration. 这是一个需要慎重考虑的问题。（定语从句） It is novels that she enjoys reading. 她喜欢阅读的是小说。（= She enjoys reading novels.）（强调句型） It was at the railway station that we first met 16 years ago. 是在火车站我们16 年前第一次相逢。（强调句型，强调地点状语at therailway station） It was the railway station where we first met 16 years ago. 这是我们16 年前第一次相逢的火车站。（定语从句，where 是关系副词，在定语从句中做地点状语） 2. 在强调句中被强调的部分还可以是副词、介词短语或从句；在定语从句中先行词一般是名词、代词或名词短语。 It was because she was ill that we decided to return. 正是因为她生病了，我们才决定回来。（强调句型） Was it the place where the party was held？ 这些是举行集会的那个地方吗？（定语从句） 3. 有些强调句型中含有一个定语从句，这往往给理解带来一定的难度。解决方法是仔细分析that 或who在句中的作用。 It was in the lab that was set up last year they finished the experiment. 他们是在去年建造的实验室里完成这个实验的。（that was set up last year是定语从句，that 在从句中作主语，并可被which 替换）It was the students who came from our school that won the first prize in thecontest.是来自我们学校的学生获得了竞赛一等奖。(who came from our school是定语从句。who 在从句中作主语。）
As引导让步状语从句倒装的用法 为了帮助同学们全面掌握让步状语从句的倒装用法，本文将这类语法现象归纳为以下五种句型： 一、名词+ as / though + 主语+ 动词 King as he was，he was unhappy. 他虽是国王，但他并不幸福。 Child as he is，he knows to help other. 他虽是个孩子，却知道帮助别人。 【说明】其中的动词通常为连系动词，也就是说位于句首的名词是其后连系动词的表语。另外，要特别注意位于句首的名词前习惯上不用冠词，即使其前有形容词修饰也不用冠词。比较： Boy as ［though］he is，he likes to play with girls.=Though he is a boy，he likes to play with girls. 他虽是男孩，却喜欢与女孩子玩。 Strong man as ［though］he is，General Botha has been severely put to the test during the past few weeks.= Though he is a strong man，General Botha has been severely put to the test during the past few weeks. 波赛将军虽然坚强，但在过去的数周里也受到了严峻的考验。 二、形容词+ as / though + 主语+ 动词 Successful as he is，he is not proud. 他虽然成功，但不骄傲。 Improbable as it seems，it’s true. 虽然看起来不太可能，但却是真的。 Stupid as it sounds，I was so in love with her that I believed her. 尽管听起来很愚蠢，我是如此爱她竟然相信了她的话。 Patient as he was，he didn’t like waiting that long. 他虽说有耐心，也不愿等这么长。 Beautiful though the necklace was，we thought it was over-priced. 那条项链虽然很漂亮，我们认为价钱太高。 【说明】其中的动词也通常为连系动词，也就是说位于句首的形容词是其后连系动词的表语。 三、副词+ as / though + 主语+ 动词 Much as I like Paris，I couldn’t live there. 尽管我喜欢巴黎，但我不能住在那里。 Hard though they tried，they couldn’t make her change her mind. 尽管他们做了很大努力，却没法让她改变主意。 Fast as you read，you can’t finish the book in two days. 尽管你读得很快，你总不能在两天之内就读完这本书。 四、动词原形+ as / though + 主语+ 动词 Object as you may，I’ll go.纵使你反对，我也要去。 Try as he might，he couldn’t solve the problem. 尽管他想方设法，却未解决这个问题。 Search as they would，they would find nobody in the house. 无论怎样搜查，他们在房子里仍然没有找到一个人。 Dislike him as we may，we must acknowledge his greatness. 尽管我们不喜欢他，但必须承认他的伟大。 Lose money as I did，we got a lot of experience. 钱虽然丢了，我们却得到了许多经验。 Fail in the election as he did，he became famous for his fiery speech against slavery. 尽管落选了，但他却以其反对奴隶制的激烈演说而出了名。 【说明】主语后的动词通常为may，might，would，did 等情态动词或助动词(若表示

定语从句与其易混淆句型的辨析 众所周知，定语从句是高中英语学习中的一个语法重点，老师、同学们都对此予以重点关注。由此造成了这样一种现象：做题时，一遇到从句就往定语从句上想，尤其容易把一些形式上与定语从句相似的句型（主要是同位语从句、强调句、地点和时间状语从句）也当作定语从句来理解，结果产生错误。因此，从某个方面来说，解答定语从句题的关键是弄清它和易混淆句型之间的区别。 一、定语从句与同位语从句 定语从句和同位语从句都置于被修饰的名词或代词之后，形式上非常相似，尤其是由that引导时，最难区分。实际上，两者的根本区别在于句法功能不同，与先行词的关系不同。 1. 句法功能不同 定语从句相当于一个形容词，用来修饰、描述或限制其前面的名词、代词（称为先行词）或整个句子；同位语从句则相当于一个名词，是先行词所述内容的展开，即说明先行词的具体内容。 定语从句的引导词that在从句中一定充当句子成分；而同位语从句中的引导词that（被称为连接代词）在从句中只起连接作用，不充当任何句子成分。 定语从句的引导词在从句中作宾语或状语时，可以省略或被其他词代替；而同位语从句的引导词则一般不能省略，也不能被代替。 例1The news （that / which）we picked up from his informal conversation is true.我们从他的闲谈中听到的那个消息是真实的。 例2The news that Mr Li will teach us English next semester is true. 李先生下学期将教我们英语这个消息是真实的。 点评：例1的中that从句是定语从句，其作用相当于一个形容词，用来限定the news，that在从句中作宾语，可省略。例2中的that从句是同位语从句，其作用相当于一个名词，本身就是the news的内容，that不能省略。 2. 与先行词关系不同 定语从句所修饰、限定的先行词可以是名词或代词，当that省略时，定语从句本身是一个不完整的句子。而同位语从句通常与一些本身有具体内容可展开的名词连用，对这些名词进行补充说明或解释。常见的此类名词有：answer，belief，doubt，decision，explanation，fact，hope，idea，information，message，news，order，possibility，problem，promise，question，reason，story，suggestion，thought，truth等。同位语从句本身是一个完整的句子，常用that连接而不是用which 引导，that本身不充当句子成分，表示疑问意义的名词（如doubt，question等）后也可用whether，who，what等疑问词引导。 例3The fact (that / which) she told me yesterday is very important.她昨天告诉我的事实非常重要。 例4The fact that she hasn’t known the result of the examination is clear.她还不知道考试成绩这个事实是显而易见的。
where引导的地点状语从句用法总结归纳 1、where 在地点状语从句中，除指地点外，还可指处境等。 eg. I'm unsatisfied with where I live. 我对自己住的地方特不 满意。 2、有时地点状语从句中的某些词能够省略。 eg. Fill in the blanks with the given phrases. Change the form where necessary. 用所给的短语填空，必要的地方能够改变其 形式。 3、地点状语从句一般置于主句之后。 eg. Keep it where you can see it. 把它放在你看得见的地方。 4、where一般表示一个确定的但非特指的地点。 eg. The school was built where there had once been a cemetery. 学校建在一座墓园的旧址。 5、wherever, anywhere 和 everywhere 表示“任何地方”。 eg. No matter where you now are in writing, you can improve with practice. 不管你在写作上你处于什么水平，练习都能帮你提升。 6、where引导定语从句时，从句前应有一个表示地点的名词作先行词；而状语从句前则无需先行词。 eg. Go back where you came from.你从何处来到何处去。(where引导地点状语从句) Go back to the country where you came from.你从哪个国家来了 就回哪去。(where引导定语从句，修饰place)
SDN让步状语从句 让步状语从句是状语从句中的一种，其本身也是状语从句。一般翻译为“尽管……”或“即使……”，就是我们日常生活中用的“退一步说……”的感觉。 引导让步状语从句的连词主要有以下这些：though,although,while,as; even if,even though; whether...or...; no matter+疑问词，疑问词-ever，regardless of+名词/名词短语/名词从句，despite，in spite of。切记although，though 不可与but连用，但可以与still和yet连用。 ⑴though,although表示“虽然，纵然”之意。 这两个连词意思大致相同，在一般情况下可以互换使用。在口语中，though较常使用，although比though 正式，二者都可与yet,still或never，the less连用，但不能与but连用。例如： My will remains firm though I must lower my physical sights. 尽管我得降低体育（锻炼）的目标，但我的意志是坚强的。 Though I believe it,yet I must consider. 尽管我相信这一点，但我还得考虑考虑。 Although/Though he was exhausted,(still) he kept on working. 虽然他已经精疲力竭了，但仍然继续工作。 Although/Though he is very old,(yet) he is quite strong. 他虽然年纪大了，身体还很健壮。 值得注意的是，although引导的让步状语从句位于主句之前的情况较多，though引导的让步状语从句可位于主句之前或主句之后。例如： She passed the examination though she had not studied very hard. 她虽然不用功学习，考试却及格了。 ⑵as,though表示“虽然……但是”，“纵使……”之意。 as引导的让步状语从句必须以部分倒装的形式出现，被倒装的部分可以是表语、状语或动词原形，though 也可用于这样的结构中，但although不可以这样用。例如： Object as you may,I’ll go.(=Though/Although you may object,I’ll go.) 纵使你反对，我也要去。 Hard as/ though he works,he makes little progress. (=Though he works hard,he makes little progress.） 尽管他学习很努力，但几乎没取得什么进步。 Child as/though he was,he knew what was the right thing to do.（=Though he was a child,he knew what was the right thing to do.） 虽然他是一个孩子，但他知道该做什么。 Fast as you read,you can’t finish the book so soon. 纵然你读得快，你也不能这么快读完这本书。 Lover of towns as I am ,I realize that I owe a debt to my early country life. 尽管我爱城市，但我知道，以往的乡村生活使我受益匪浅。 Small as atome are,they are made up of still samller units. 尽管原子很小，但它们由更小的单位构成。 ⑶even if,even though 表示“即使……”，“纵使……”之意，含有一种假设。 这两个复合连词的意思基本相同。它们常互换使用，但意义有细微差别。even if引导的让步从句含有强烈的假定性，可用来表示与事实相反的假设，但不能用来描述已经发生的事实。而even though引导让步状语从句时，是以从句的内容为先决条件的，即说话人肯定了从句的事实，表示已经发生了的事。例如： We’ll make a trip even if/though the weather is bad. 即使天气不好，我们也要作一次旅行。 Even if he is poor,she loves him. (=He may be poor,yet she loves him.）
