以下情况不能省略：（1）在介词 whom与介词 which中，whom,which不能省略。Do you know any shops nearby in which I can buy flowers?That is the headmaster with whom my father was talking just now。
注：当介词放在动词后时，which,whom就可以省略。Who is the man (whom) you talked with just now?（2）在非限制性定语从句中，作宾语的关系代词也不能省略。
Mr Green,whom you know,is the tallest in our school。The elephant is like a spear,as anybody can see。
（3）在the same 。。。as,such。。。as,as。。。as,the same。。。that中，as,that即使作宾语，也不能省略I have bought the same bicycle as you have (bought)。
(指同类用as)This is the same book that I read the day before yesterday。 (that指同一个)（4）当由and,but,or等连词连接两个或两个以上的定语从句修饰一个先行词时，第一个关系代词可省，但第二，第三个不可省略。
This is the book (which) I read yesterday and which I find very interesting。2。当that在从句中作补语时可以省略。
He is not the man (that) he used to be。She is all (that) a teacher should be。3。在there be 结构中出现定语从句，或在定语从句中出现there be 时，用作主语的关系代词也可省略。
There is a man downstairs (who) wants to see you。This is the best dictionary (that) there is in the library。
4。状语的省略（1）当先行词是reason，而且定语从句中作原因状语时，关系代词可用why,that,也可以省略。The reason (why/that) he failed was his laziness。
That is the reason (why) I did it。（2）当先行词是way,且在定语从句中作方式状语时，关系代词可用in which,that,也可以省略。The way (in which/that) these comrades look at problems is wrong。
That was the way (in which/that) she worked the problem out。注意：当关系代词在定语从句中作主语时，不省略。例如：I don't know the way that/ which leads to the top of the mountains。
(3)当先行词是time时，关系代词可用when,that 或省略。The second time (that) I saw him was in 1980。I don't know the exact time (when/that) the sports meet will take place。
注意：关系代词作宾语有时也不能省略。(2)1) 定语从句有限制性和非限制性两种。限制性定语从句是先行词不可缺少的部分，去掉它主句意思往往不明确；非限制性定语从句是先行词的附加说明，去掉了也不会影响主句的意思，它与主句之间通常用逗号分开，例如： This is the house which we bought last month。
这是我们上个月买的那幢房子。（限制性） The house, which we bought last month, is very nice。这幢房子很漂亮，是我们上个月买的。（非限制性）2) 当先行词是专有名词或物主代词和指示代词所修饰时，其后的定语从句通常是非限制性的，例如： Charles Smith, who was my former teacher, retired last year。
查理·史密斯去年退休了，他曾经是我的老师。 My house, which I bought last year, has got a lovely garden。 我去年买的的那幢房子带着个漂亮的花园。
This novel, which I have read three times, is very touching。 这3) 非限制性定语从句还能将整个主句作为先行词, 对其进行修饰, 这时从句谓语动词要用第三人称单数，例如： He seems not to have grasped what I meant, which greatly upsets me。
他似乎没抓住我的意思，这使我心烦。 Liquid water changes to vapor, which is called evaporation。 液态水变为蒸汽，这就叫做蒸发。
说明：关系代词that和关系副词why不能引导非限制性定语从句。收起
