...N(,) + prep. + whom/which + S + V
1 本單元介紹「介系詞 + 關係子句」的用法。
這是難度較高的句型，因此觀念的釐清很重要。老師可先複習基本的關係子句句型（此句型沒有介系詞出現，是因為動詞是及物動詞）；之後再介紹「介系詞 + whom/which...」的句型（此句型有介系詞出現，因為是動詞片語或不及物動詞），此介系詞是由後面動詞片語中的介系詞移前而形成的。最後再介紹「介系詞 + 先行詞」所形成的「介系詞片語」；此種「介系詞 +which...」的句型，介系詞要由前面的先行詞決定。補充句型雖不容易，但用於寫作上非常漂亮，老師可依教學需要使用。
2 複習句型①：關係子句（who/which）
(1) Sb. + who + V
(2) Sth. + which + V
①關係代名詞who代替前面的人（sb.），作連接詞並兼作主詞。②關係代名詞which代替前面的事物（sth.），作連接詞並兼作主詞。
• The teacher will punish students who cheat on the monthly or final exam.
• We Chinese have a saying, “Those who respect others will be respected by them.”
• Things which are done only halfway are never done right. Therefore, do everything with your heart.
• If there is too much energy which flows to one part of the body, it may cause pain.
3 複習句型②：關係副詞引導的關係子句（when/where）
(1) S + V + time + when + S1 + V1
(2) S + V + place + where + S1 + V1
①關係副詞when為連接詞的作用，代替前面的時間（time），其後須接完整的子句。②關係副詞where為連接詞的作用，代替前面的地方（place），其後須接完整的子句。③英文的時間╱地方片語由介系詞（in/on/at...等）引導，故when/where可轉換成「介系詞 + which」的用法。
• Spring is the season when/in which cherry blossoms are in full bloom.
• The day when/on which you were born is called your birthday.
• It is possible to visit the house where/in which Lincoln lived as a child.
• Is there a supermarket near here where/in which I can buy organic vegetables?
4 課文句型①：介系詞配合動詞
S + V...介系詞 + whom/which + S1 + V1
此介系詞與V1形成動詞片語（如：wait for, depend upon/on, deal with, look up to等）。
• I won’t tell the secret to a person in whom I don’t believe.（in whom是由believe in所形成）
• His failure was a heavy blow from which he never fully recovered.（from which是由recover from所形成）
• There is a great demand for high-quality tuna, on which people in Japan would
spend much money.（on which是由spend + 錢 + on + 物所形成）
(p. T-105)
5 課文句型②：介系詞配合名詞
S + V... + 名詞, 介系詞 + whom/which + S1 +V1
此介系詞與名詞形成介系詞片語。
• She showed me her engagement ring, on which there were three small diamonds.
（on which → on the ring）
• I arrived home at six o’clock, at which it began to rain heavily.（at which → at six o’clock）
• I am looking for a box in which I can put some rare stamps.（in which → in the box）
6 補充句型：
part/some/many/both/none...of which/whom...
wh i c h 代替前面主要子句中所提過的事物，whom則代替前面主要子句中所提過的人。
• The club consists of thirty members. Most of them are teachers.
→ The club consists of thirty members, most of whom are teachers.
• Tina bought many books. Some of them are romantic novels.
→ Tina bought many books, some of which are romantic novels.
