A relative clause is a dependent clause that modifies a noun or pronoun.
关系从句指的是一种修饰名词或代词的从属从句。
It provides more information about the word it is modifying.
它提供了关于所修饰词的更多信息。
Relative clauses begin with such words as "that", "when", "where", "whom", "whose", and "which".
关系从句一般是以that、when、where、whom、whose和which这些词开头的。
Like, "That's the garden which we visited on Saturday."
比如说：“那就是我们上周六去过的花园。”
But today we're talking about relative clauses that use "which" to modify a whole sentence.
但是我们今天要谈论的是用which来修饰整个句子的关系从句。
Sally was late, which surprised me.

In this sentence, the word "which" refers to the whole sentence, "Sally was late".
在这个例句中，which这个词指代的是Sally was late这整个句子。
It is easy using "which" to modify a whole sentence.
使用which来修饰整个句子，这种用法很简便。

Using "which" to modify a whole sentence is more common in speaking.
在口语中用“which”修饰整个句子更为常见。
However, when you do find it in writing, it comes after a comma to indicate a pause in speech.
不过当你在写作中发现which时，它一般会跟在一个逗号后面，表示讲话中的停顿。
