怎么确定定语从句中whose的使用?

答案

whose 是定语从句中一个常用的关系代词,它是关系代词who的所有格,在从句中作定语,也就是说当先行词与从句中某个名词有所属关系,表达“……的”意思时,用关系代词whose 引导定语从句,它既可以指代人,也可以指代物,既可引导限制性定语从句,也可以引导非限制性定语从句.
　　例：①Mr King,whose legs were badly hurt,was taken to the hospital.金先生腿受重伤,被送进了医院.
　　②They lives in a room whose window opens to the south.他们住在一间窗户朝南开的房间里.
　　whose短语在定语从句中有时可作介词宾语,即构成“介词＋whose＋名词”引导定语从句并在从句中作状语.
　　例：①The boss in whose department Mr King worked had heard about the accident.金先生工作所在的部门领导已经听人说过这一意外事故.
　　②He is the student of whose brother we are always proud.他就是那个我们总是为他哥哥感到骄傲的学生.
　　whose引导定语从句时,通常可与of which/of whom引导的定语从句进行转换.
　　例：①I made a table,the surface of which(of which the surface)is quite smooth.我制了张桌子,桌面很光滑.
　　I made a table,whose surface is quite smooth.
　　②I live in a room whose window(the window of which或of which the window)opens to the south.我住在一间窗户朝南开的屋子里.
　　③The professor of whom a daughter(a daughter of whom) has gone abroad is very famous in China.那位他的女儿已经出国了的教授在国内很有名.
