当先行词为主句表语或关系代词为从句表语时,只能用that不用which.如题：①Who is the man that is standing there?②He looked like a teacher which he was.请问：①的man与②的teacher都是表语，但为什么一个用that，一个用which？

当先行词为主句表语或关系代词为从句表语时,只能用that不用which.
如题：①Who is the man that is standing there?
②He looked like a teacher which he was.
请问：①的man与②的teacher都是表语，但为什么一个用that，一个用which？
答
其实关于which到底能不能做表语,很多权威语法书都有争议.
到目前为止,有一些权威书上写有：先行词在主句中作表语,关系词在从句中作表语时宜用 that 而不用 which .
例如：
This isn't the book that I borrowed from the library.属于先行词在主句中作表语.
Shenzhen is no longer the city that it used to be.属于引导词在从句中作表语.
有争议说 which 可作表语,如,She was fond of dancing,which her brother never was.但只能说明是在非限制性定语从句中,which 可作表语.
