非限制性关系分句
如前所述,非限制性关系分句和它的先行项之间只有比较松散的关系。这种分句在口语中有停顿 ,在书写中常用逗号隔开。非限制性关系分句的引导词通常是 who, whom, whose which
等 wh- 词,但也并不绝对排除 that 例如:
The Chairman, who spoke
first, sat on my right.
His speech, which bored everyone,
went on
and on.
The Chairman's daughter, whose name is Ann, gave me a patient
smile.
She is devilish like
Miss Cutter,
that I used to meet
at Dumdum.
关系副词 where, when 也能引导非限制性关系分句。例如:
Many of our
Welsh people (威尔士人)
are going
to settle in North
Carolina, where
land is cheap.
I'm seeing the manager tomorrow, when he will be
back from New York.
非限制性关系分句,就其意义来说,在句中有时相当于一个并列分句。例如:
They had a fine walk too,
which had done
his liver good.
(= They
had a fine walk
too, and it had
done his liver good.)
有时,非限制性关系分句在语义上起状语分句的作用,表示原因、目的、结果、条件、让步等意义。例如:
It is in line with the Charter (联合国宪章), which recognizes
the value of regional
efforts to solve problems and settle
disputes. (这里的 which ... 相当于 for it …或 as it .. 的意思,表示原因。
Chinese delegations have been sent to Asian-African countries, who will negotiate trade agreements with the
respective governments. (这里的 who will .. . 相当于 so that they
may 意思,表示目的.)
He would be
a rash man, who should venture
to forecast the results of this event. (这里的 who ..相当于 if he …的意思,表示条件。)
Dr Lee, who had carefully read through
the instructions before doing his experiments, could
not obtain satisfactory
results,because he
followed them mechanically. (这里的 who ... 相当于 though
he ... 的意思,表示让步。)
