The day on which Tom was born was May 2nd,1989.
The day was May2nd,1989 on which Tom was born.
哪句正确,还是两个句子都可以?请解释清楚哦,不要给我粘贴语法书上的东西,谢谢

答：2个句子都可以.前面那个句子是一个限制性的定语从句,相当于强调Tom出生那天是...,on which Tom was born 作为the day的定语,翻译为：Tom出生那天是1989年的5月2日.后面的句子可以看成是个非限制性的,可以这么翻译：那天是1989年5月2日,Tom出生那天.这样子表达的重点就只在于强调这个日期,与上下文联系的话就是说那天可能发生了其他的事情,Tom出生只是为了让人加强联系而已,起到一个修饰性作用,可有可无,意义不大.
再问：那为什么这句 Mary is a student who konws a lot about basketball. 一般不说Mary who knows a lot about basketball is a student.
再答：这句话的理解就跟上句一样啊，重点在你要表述什么。Mary is a student who konws a lot about basketball. 这句话是强调了定语的内容，而他的学生身份不正要，Mary是个对篮球有很深了解的学生。Mary who knows a lot about basketball is a student. 对篮球有很深了解的Mary是个学生。这句话强调的是Mary的学生身份。重点要表述，即使她对篮球了解甚多，但还只是个学生而已。也就是说，不管Mary是否对篮球了解她都是个学生，这个定语并不能限制Mary成为一个学生；而前句的定语就不好省略了，否则句子表达的意思重点就不存在了。
再问：这样不会造成误会么 basketball is a student?
再答：额，懂点定语从句的应该就不会造成误解了，因为要读句子首先要学会断句，明白了定语从句就知道应该要找到定语从句的句子，把从句内容剔除，句子的主干就剩下Mary is a student.肯定不会误解的，但是如果不懂定语从句，而强读句子，会不会造成误解我就没法说了。
