据魔方格专家权威分析，试题“A bank is the place ______ they lend you an umbrella in fair..”主要考查你对&&定语从句&&等考点的理解。关于这些考点的“档案”如下：
现在没空？点击收藏，以后再看。
因为篇幅有限，只列出部分考点，详细请访问。
定语从句：担任定语动能的句子称为定语从句。定语从句在句中的作用相当于形容词，故又称为形容词性从句。定语从句所修饰的词叫先行词；定语从句一般用关系代词或关系副词来引导，关系词放在先行词与定语之间起连接作用，同时又作从句中的一部分。 定语从句的分类：根据定语从句与先行词的关系，定语从句可分为限制性定语从句及非限制性定语从句。限制性定语从句紧跟先行词，主句与从句不用逗号分开，从句不可省去;非限制性定语从句主句与从句之间有逗号分开，起补充说明作用，如省去，意思仍完整。1．由that引导的定语从句一般情况下that可指人或物，可以代替who，whom和which，在从句中作主语或谓语动词的宾语，但不能作介词的宾语。如：The comrade that（who）is speaking at the meeting is an advanced worker．正在会上讲话的那个同志是个先进工人。Is this the doctor that（whom）you talked about yesterday？这就是你们昨天谈论的那位医生吗？The letter that（which）I received yesterday was from my father．昨天我收到的信是我父亲寄来的。2．由who，whom和whose引导的定语从句who在从句中作主语，whom在从句中作宾语，whose在从句中作定语。如：This is the thief who stole my bike．这就是偷我自行车的那个贼。He is the boy whom you wanted to find．他就是你想要找的那个男孩。The girl whose mother is a doctor is waiting for you outside．妈妈是个医生的那个女孩在外面等你。3．由which引导的定语从句which指物，在从句中作主语或谓语动词的宾语。如：The book which Mum bought me last week is called“Red Star Over China”．妈妈上周买给我的那本书名叫《西行漫记》。The house which Lu Xun once lived in is now the Lu Xun Museum．鲁迅曾经住过的那所房子现在是鲁迅博物馆。4．由where，when和why引导的定语从句where在从句中作地点状语，when在从句中作时间状语，why在从句中作原因状语。如：I will never forget the day when I joined the League．我永远忘不了我入团的那一天。He will go back to the school where he studied next week．下周他要回到他曾经学习过的学校。I don't know the reason why he quarreled with Zhang Lin．我不知道他同张琳吵架的原因。［注意点］关系代词在定语从句中作宾语时，关系代词常省去。如：The play（which）I watched just now had been on twice on Channel 我刚才看的那个戏剧在3频道上已上演了两次。限定性定语从句：1. that即可代表事物也可代表人，which代表事物；它们在从句中作主语或宾语，that在从句中作宾语时常可省略关系词，which在从句中作宾语则不能省略。而且，如果which在从句中作“不及物动词＋介词”的介词的宾语，注意介词不要丢掉，而且介词总是放在关系代词which的前边，但有的则放在它原来的位置2. which作宾语时，根据先行词与定语从句之间的语义关系，先行词与which之间的介词不能丢3. 代表物时多用which，但在带有下列词的句子中用that而不用which，这些词包括all, anything, much等，这时的that常被省略4. who和whom引导的从句用来修饰人，分别作从句中的主语和宾语，whom作宾语时，要注意它可以作动词的宾语也可以作介词的宾语5. where是关系副词，用来表示地点的定语从句6. when引导定语从句表示时间〔注〕值得一提的是，表示时间“time"一词的定语从句只用when引导，有时不用任何关系代词，当然也不用that引导By the time you arrive in London, we will have stayed there for two weeks.I still remember the first time I met her.Each time he goes to besiness trip, he brings a lot of living necessities, such as towers, soap, toothbrush etc.7. whose是关系代词，修饰名词作定语，相当于所修饰成分的前置所有格8. 当从句的逻辑主语是some, any, no, somebody, anybody, nobody, something, anything, everything或nothing时，常用there is来引导非限定性定语从句非限定性定语从句的作用是对所修饰的成分作进一步说明，通常和主句间用逗号隔开，将从句拿掉后其他部分仍可成立1. which引导的非限定性定语从句来说明前面整个句子的情况或主句的某一部分2. 在引导限定性定语从句时，that有时相当于in which, at which, for which或at whichAttitudes towards daydreaming are changing in much the same way that(in which) attitudes towards night dreaming have changed. 人们对白日做梦的态度正在改变，这与人们对夜间做梦的看法的变化有非常相似之处。I like the music for the very reason that(for which) he dislike it. 我出于某种原因喜欢这种音乐，而他恰恰与我相反。We arrived the day that(on which) they left. 刚好我们到的那天他们走了。3. 有时as也可用作关系代词4. 在非限定性定语从句中，不能用that，而用who, whom代表人，用which代表事物限定性定语从句口诀:（口诀一）　　定语从句真奇妙，　　关系代(副)词来引导，　　定语从句分两种，　　是否限定看逗号。　　（口诀二）　　which指物who指人，　　地点where时间when,　　that人或物均可，　　why之前是reason。　　（口诀三）　　从句当中作宾语，　　whom可以代替who,　　为了句子更简练，　　关系代词可省去。　　（口诀四）　　关系若是表所属，　　whose用法不可无。　　除此之外还有啥，　　whom, which加of。　　（口诀五）　　关系代词不一般，　　介词经常用在前，　　此时不用that, who，　　which, whom才安全。　引导定语从句的关系词：

wait的详细讲解：
wait的基本意思是“等”,指在相当长的一段时间内停留在某个地方,直到某事发生或某人到来为止。
wait主要用作不及物动词,常与介词for连用。
wait用作及物动词通常用来指耐心地“等,等待”。在这种用法中其宾语仅限于hour, time, turn, return, arrival, opportunity, chance, orders, a fine day, aid, the result, the signal, convenience等名词。
wait还可接带to的动词不定式。这种动词不定式是目的状语,而不是宾语。
can't wait用来表示一种极不耐烦的心情,可作“多么想…,简直等不及了”“迫不及待地想要”解,后面一般也接带to的动词不定式。
wait and see的意思是“等着瞧”,使用时应注意wait和see都必须用原形,并且and不可换成其他连词。当以表示事物的名词作主语时, wait可表示“准备好了”“等人处理”,多用于进行体。
在句子I waited for weeks for her letter.中的for weeks可以省去介词for。但是,I waited for her letter for weeks.中的for weeks不可以省去介词for。
No Waiting.意思是“此处请勿停车”是英式英语,美国人则常用No Standing或No Stopping。
wait可以指等待的时间,也可以指“等”的动作。
wait for, expect
这两个词(组)的共同意思是“等待”。其区别是：
expect指的是一种等待的心境,并非除此以外不干任何事情。例如:
He is expecting a letter.他正在等一封信。
wait for则强调动作本身,即不干别的事而专门等待。例如:
“Why are you standing here?” “I am waiting for Mr. Green.”“你站在这儿干什么?”“我在等格林先生。”
wait, await
这两个词都有“等待”的意思,其区别是：
1.await是正式用词,常用于书面语,不如wait常用。
2.await后面可以接动名词作宾语,但不可接不定式, wait后面可以接不定式作状语,但不可接动名词,如：I shall await hearing from you和I shall wait to hear from you。这两句里的await和wait不可对调。
3.await, wait for这二者含义相同,但wait for后面接了宾语还可以加上不定式,而await却不可,如：I am waiting for him to come(我在等着他来。)里的waiting for不可改作awaiting。
这两个动词均含“等，等待”之意。
:wait普通用词，侧重静候于某处，直到等候或期待的人或事物的到来，通常用作不及物动词，与for连用。
:await正式用词，及物动词，通常指不断等待，多含耐心意味。
他说他不能等到星期一。
误 He said he couldn't wait to Monday.
正 He said he couldn't wait till Monday.
析 表示“等到某一时刻”,应该用until或till,不用to。
我在门口等你。
误 I'll wait you at the gate.
正 I'll wait for you at the gate.
析 表示“等某人”时, wait用作不及物动词,其后须加介词for。
我正等着某人告诉我发生了什么事。
误 I'm waiting that someone tells me what happened.
正 I'm waiting for someone to tell me what happened.
析 wait后面不可以接that从句,表示“等某人做某事”可以说wait for sb to do sth。
