why Step3 Study the differences between the restrictive and non-restrictive attributive clause. Difference1 A.

In written form My cousin whose father is a teacher wants to be an actor. My cousin , whose father is a teacher , wants to be an actor.

限制性定语从句与先行词之间不用逗号隔开；非限制性定语从句与先行词之间一般用逗号隔开。

B.

In how close the clause is connected with the main sentence e.g. Beijing is a city that I’ve always wanted to visit.

Beijing, which is the capital of China, has a long history.

Mr. Black is the man who rescued me from the river.

Mr. Black, who is a doctor, rescued me from the river. 限制性定语从句和先行词关系密切，如果去掉从句，剩余部分意义不完整；非限制性定语从句只是先行词的附加说明，如果去掉从句，意义仍然完整。

C.

In Antecedent (先行词) 3

e.g.

Mike sold the house which his family had lived in for 30 years.

Mike sold the house, which made his father very angry. Mike lived in Lincoln Street, where many important people lived. D. In the Relative Pronouns (关系代词) She married a man (that / whom /who) she met on the bus. The book, which he lost yesterday, has been found. which 在从句中作宾语,但不能省略

改错：He failed in the exam, that made his mother angry. 改为：He failed in the exam, which made his mother angry. 非限制性定语从句中通常使用下列关系代词和副词。

关系代词：which / who / whom / whose / as

关系副词：when / where (非限制性定语从句中不用关系词that；非限制性定语从句中关系词不能省略) 有时同一个限制性从句变为非限制性从句会改变全句的意思。

1. I have a sister who works in a hospital. 我有一位在医院工作的姐姐。（不只一位姐姐）

2. I have a sister, who works in a hospital. 我有一位姐姐，她在医院工作。（只有一位姐姐）

限制性定语从句翻译为“......的”

。非限制性定语从句分两部分翻译。

1. I have a sister who can speak English . 我有一个会说英语的姐姐。

2. I have a sister, who can speak English. 我有一个姐姐，她会说英语。

His father, who works in Beijing, came back yesterday. Shanghai, which is in East China, is developing rapidly. 当先行词是地名人名、世界上独一无二的事物或家庭唯一成员时，通常只用非限制性定语从句。

Step 4 Conclusion Comma（非限制性定语从句与先行词之间一般用逗号隔开。) 4

The non-restrictive attributive clause can be left out.（非限制性定语从句可被省略）

We can’t use “that” in it.（非限制性定语从句中不可以用that) We can’t miss the relative words.

（非限制性定语从句中关系代词不可以被省略）
