当关系代词在定语从句中作表语时，通常用that而不用who：
He is no longer the man that he used to be.
II. 关系代词whose的特殊用法（只用作定语, 若指物，它还可以同of which互换, of which可置于其所修饰的名词前或后; 若指人, 可以同of whom互换）。例如：
Please pass me the book whose cover is green.（指物）
=Please pass me the book the cover of which(of which the cover) is green.
The doctor, whose name was Johnson, lived in a small town in the north of England.（指人）
=The doctor, the name of whom was Johnson, lived in a small town in the north of England.
III. 介词 + which/whom引导的定语从句
1) 介词 + which引导的定语从句， 此结构中，不能用that。which不能省略。介词的选用可根据从句中的相关词组确定，该介词通常可以放在关系代词之前，也可放在从句之尾，这时可用that/which引导从句，也可省略。
The room in which there is a machine is a workshop.
The room that/which/- there is a machine in is a workshop.
但遇固定词组时，介词一般紧跟词组主体，不作前置。如：
Is this the book (which/that) you are looking for? ( 这里介词for不提前，因为look for是固定词组，意为“寻找”，介词for若被提前，单个的look意为“看”，句意不符。)
2) 介词 + whom引导的定语从句，此结构中，不能用that也不用who。whom不能省略。
The man with whom my English teacher shook hands was from Harvard University.
介词的选用可根据从句中的相关词组确定，该介词通常可以放在关系代词之前，也可放在从句之尾。例如：
The man who/whom/that/- my English teacher shook hands with was from Harvard University.

定语从句典型题分析
高考题
1. All ____ is needed is a supply of oil. ( NMET89 )
A. the thing B. that C. what D. which
点拨：本题考查引导定语从句的关系词，what只能用于名词性从句，因此A/D可以排除，又因先行词为不定代词all，所以答案为B。
2.He paid the boys $10 for washing ten windows, most of ____ hadn’t been cleaned for at
least a year. ( NMET90 )
A. these B. those C. that D. which
点拨：本题考查非限制性定语从句。从句子结构上看，两句之间用的是逗号，无连词连接，故确定为从属句，介词后面的关系代词代物，只能用which，答案为D。
3.In the dark street, there wasn’t a single person ____ she could turn for help. ( NMET92 )
A. that B. who C. from whom D. to whom
点拨：本题考查定语从句中介词加关系代词的用法。根据句意“向某人求助”是turn to
sb. for help，其中介词to可提前，故答案为D。本句也可以如下表达：In the dark street, there wasn’t a single person (who/whom/that) she could turn to for help.)
4.Dorothy was always speaking highly of her role in the play, ____, of course, made the
others unhappy. ( 2000 )
A .who B. which C. this D. what
点拨：本题考查非限制性定语从句指代整个句子的用法，意为“老是自赞她在剧中表演
的角色，这件事当然令他人不快。”指代前面所说的整句话，用which。故答案为B。从句中插入of course增加了考测难度，解题时可先把它忽略。
易混题
５．①John is the only one of the students who ____ French．
②John is one of the students who ____ French．
A．know B．knows C．knowing D．known
点拨：答案是①B②A。在句①中的句意是“约翰是学生中唯一懂法语的那个学生”，其重心是the only one故从句谓语动词应与one一致。在句②中的句意是“约翰是懂法语的学生中的一个”，也就是“懂法语的学生不止一个，约翰只是其中之一”，其重心是the students，故从句中谓语动词应与students一致。
６．①This is the knife ____ I usually cut my pencil．
②This is the knife ____ I usually use to cut my pencil．
A．with which B．which C．by which D．with that
点拨：答案是①A②B。在句①中，定语从句的句式是cut my pencil with the knife，故用with which引导定语从句。在句②中，定语从句的结构是use the knife to cut my pencil，故用which引导定语从句。
7．①Who lives in the house ____ windows face south？
② Who lives in the house ____ the windows face south？
A．whose B．which C．of which D．that
点拨：答案是①A②C。在句①中windows前没有定冠词，它所缺的是定语形容词，而whose的用法就是在定语从句中作定语且既可指人也可指物。在句②中windows前有定冠词，所以要填的内容不能作前置定语，又因为“房子的窗户”用英语表达是“the windows of the house”，故可用of which引导定语从句。
8．①Is this factory ____ you visited last year？
②Is this the factory ____ you visited last year？
A．that B．of which C．the one D．where
点拨：答案是①C②A。在句①中factory前没有定冠词，这说明this是作它的定语。这样，句中就缺少表语，也就是说定语从句缺少先行词，故选C（the one后省略了that）。在句②中this作主语，the factory作表语，其后带一个that引导的定语从句，故选A。
9．①When I have trouble，he is the only one ____I can ask for help．
②When I have trouble，he is the only one ____ I can go for help．
A．whom B．to whom C．which D．to who
点拨：答案是①A②B。句①中，在结构上所要添的内容在从句中作ask的宾语其句式是ask sb．for sth．，故用whom引导定语从句。在句②中，go是不及物动词其句式是go to sb．for sth．，故用to whom引导定语从句。
10．①The reason ____ he gave us was that his car broke down on the way．
②The reason ____he was late was that his car broke down on the way．
A．for which B．which C．how D．what
点拨：答案是①B②A。在句①中，所要填的内容在定语从句中应作gave的宾语，故应填关系代词which。在句②中，所要填的内容在定语从句中作原因状语，故应填关系副词for which(=why)。
