Rút gọn mệnh đề quan hệ

Tài liệu Giản lược mệnh đề quan hệ Tiếng Anh dưới đây nằm trong bộ đề Ôn tập Ngữ pháp Tiếng Anh cơ bản mới nhất trên VnDoc.com. Tài liệu Tiếng Anh gồm 6 cách lược bỏ mệnh đề quan hệ khác nhau như: Rút gọn mệnh đề bằng cụm Cụm V-ing, cụm V-ed, To inf, cụm danh từ, mệnh đề tính từ có dạng be và tính từ/ cụm tính từ, mệnh đề tính từ thành tính từ ghép, ... và bài tập mệnh đề quan hệ rút gọn có đáp án.

A. Lý thuyết rút gọn mệnh đề quan hệ

Có 6 cách rút gọn câu dùng mệnh đề quan hệ trong tiếng Anh.

I. Rút gọn mệnh đề quan hệ bằng cách dùng participle phrases (V-ing phrase)

Nếu động từ trong mệnh đề quan hệ ở thể chủ động (active), ta dùng cụm hiện tại phân từ (present participle phrase) thay cho mệnh đề đó. Thao tác: Bỏ đại từ quan hệ và trợ động từ, đưa động từ chính về nguyên mẫu và thêm đuôi – ing.

Ex: The man who is standing there is my brother => The man standing there is my brother

Do you know the boy who broke the windows last night? => Do you know the boy breaking the windows last night?

II. Rút gọn bằng cách dùng past participle phrase (V-ed phrase)

Nếu động từ trong mệnh đề quan hệ ở thể bị động (passive) ta dùng cụm quá khứ phân từ (past participle phrase).

Ex: The books which were written by Nam Cao are interesting => The books written by Nam Cao are interesting.

The students who were punished by teacher are lazy =>The students punished by teacher are lazy.

III. Rút gọn mệnh đề quan hệ bằng to infinitive

Dùng khi danh từ đứng trước có các chữ sau đây bổ nghĩa: the only, the first, the second,… the last, so sánh nhất, mục đích.

Ex: Tom is the last person who enters the room = Tom is the last person to enter the room.

John is the youngest person who takes part in the race =>John is the youngest person to take part in the race.

Động từ là HAVE/ HAD

Ex: I have much homework that I must do => I have many homework to do.

Đầu câu có HERE (BE), THERE (BE)

Ex: There are six letters which have to be written today => There are six letters to be written today.

IV. Rút gọn mệnh đề quan hệ dùng cụm danh từ (đồng cách danh từ)

Dùng khi mệnh đề quan hệ tình từ có dạng: S + BE + DANH TỪ /CỤM DANH TỪ/CỤM GIỚI TỪ Cách làm: bỏ who ,which và be.

Ex: Football, which is a popular sport, is very good for health => Football, a popular sport, is very good for health.

Do you like the book which is on the table? => Do you like the book on the table?

V. Mệnh đề rút gọn tính từ có dạng be + tính từ/cụm tính từ

Có 2 công thức rút gọn:

Công thức 1: Bỏ who, which…to be -> giữ nguyên tính từ phía sau.

Điều kiện 1: Nếu phía trước that là đại từ phiếm chỉ như something, anything, anybody…

Ex: There must be something that is wrong => There must be something wrong.

Điều kiện 2: Có dấu phẩy phía trước và phải có từ 2 tính từ trở lên.

Ex: My grandmother, who is old and sick, never goes out of the house => My grandmother, old and sick, never goes out of the house.

Công thức 2: Những trường hợp còn lại ta đem tính từ lên trước danh từ.

Ex: My grandmother, who is sick, never goes out of the house => My sick grandmother never goes out of the house.

I buy a hat which is very beautiful and fashionable => I buy a very beautiful and fashionable hat.

Tuy nhiên nếu cụm tính từ gồm cả danh từ ở trong nó thì ta chỉ còn cách dùng V-ing mà thôi.

Ex: I met a man who was very good at both English and French => I met a man being very good at both English and French.

Tóm lại cách rút gọn loại này khá phức tạp vì nó tùy thuộc vào đến 3 yếu tố: có một hay nhiều tính từ – danh từ đứng trước có phải là phiếm chỉ không có dấu phẩy hay không

VI. Mệnh đề tính từ thành tính từ ghép

Cách làm: Ta sẽ rút gọn mệnh đề thành một tính từ ghép bằng cách tìm trong mệnh đề một số đếm và danh từ đi sau nó, sau đó ta để chúng kế nhau và thêm dấu gạch nối ở giữa. Đem tính từ ghép đó ra trước danh từ đứng truớc who, which…- những phần còn lại bỏ hết.

Lưu ý:

+ Danh từ không được thêm “s”

+ Chỉ dùng được dạng này khi mệnh để tính từ có số đếm

+ Các cụm như tuổi thì sẽ viết lại cả 3 từ và gạch nối giữa chúng (two years old à two-year-old)

Ex: I have a car which has four seats => I have a four-seat car. I had a holiday which lasted two days => I had a two-day holiday.

B. Phương pháp làm bài tập Rút gọn mệnh đề quan hệ

Khi học thì ta học từ dễ đến khó nhưng khi làm bài thì ngược lại phải suy luận từ khó đến dễ.

Bước 1:

- Tìm xem mệnh đề tính từ nằm chỗ nào

Bước này cũng dễ vì mệnh đề tính từ thường bắt đầu bằng WHO, WHICH, THAT…

Bước 2 :

Bước này chủ yếu là giảm từ mệnh đề xuống cụm từ, tuy nhiên cách suy luận cũng phải theo thứ tự nếu không sẽ làm sai.

Ví dụ:

This is the first man who was arrested by police yesterday.

Mới nhìn ta thấy đây là câu bị động ,nếu vội vàng thì sẽ dễ dàng biến nó thành :

This is the first man arrested by police yesterday sai

Nhưng đáp án đúng phải là :

This is the first man to be arrested by police yesterday đúng

Lưu ý:

1. Nhìn xem mệnh đề có công thức S + BE + CỤM DANH TỪ không ? Nếu có áp dụng công thức IV.

2. Nếu không có công thức đó thì xem tiếp trước who which… có các dấu hiệu first ,only…v..v không ,nếu có thì áp dụng công thức III (to inf. ) lưu ý thêm xem 2 chủ từ có khác nhau không ( để dùng for sb )

3 .Nếu không có 2 trường hợp trên mới xét xem câu đó chủ động hay bị động mà dùng VING hay P.P.
