the way引导的定语从句

the way引导的定语从句，大家是否了解清楚了?以下是关于the way引导的定语从句内容，欢迎阅览!

　　(一)the way作先行词，后接定语从句

以下3种表达都是正确的。例如：“我喜欢她笑的样子。”

1. the way+ in which +从句：I like the way in which she smiles.

2. the way+ that +从句：I like the way that she smiles.

3. the way + 从句(省略了in which或that)：I like the way she smiles.

上述句子都正确，意思也完全相同。但是，the way之后用in which引导的定语从句最为正式;省略了that或in which是最自然、最常用的表达;然而，the way之后用that引导定语从句，最不常见。

注意，在先行词the way之后不用how。因为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.

　　(二)the way的语义

　　1. the way=as(像)

Please do it the way I’ve told you.请按照我告诉你的那样做。

I'm talking to you just the way I'd talk to a boy of my own.我和你说话就像和自己孩子说话一样。

Plant need water the way they need sun light. 植物需要水就像它们需要阳光一样。

　　2. the way=how(怎样，多么)

No one can imagine the way he misses her.没人能够想象出他是多么想念她!

I want to find out the way a volcano has formed.我想弄清楚火山是怎样形成的。

He was filled with anger at the way he had been treated.他因遭受如此待遇而怒火满腔。

That’s the way she speaks.她就是那样讲话的。

　　3. the way=according as (根据)

The way most people look at you, you'd think a trashman was a monster.从大多数人看你的目光中,你就知道垃圾工在他们眼里是怪物。

5. the way=that(引导名词性从句)

　　例子拓展：

In 1770 the room was completed the way she wanted. 1770年，这间琥珀屋按照她的要求完成了。

the way在句中的语法作用是什么?其意义如何?在阅读时，学生经常会碰到一些含有the way的句子，如：No one knows the way he invented the machine. He did not do the experiment the wayhis teacher told him.等等。他们对the way 的用法和含义比较模糊。

在这几个句子中，the way之后的部分都是定语从句。第一句的意思是，“没人知道他是怎样发明这台机器的。”the way的意思相当于how;第二句的意思是，“他没有按照老师说的那样做实验。”the way 的意思相当于as。在In 1770 the room was completed the way she wanted.这句话中，the way也是as的含义。随着现代英语的发展，the way的用法已越来越普遍了。
