答案
1. An old friend from abroad, _____ I was expecting to stay with, telephoned me from the airport. (2000年)
A. that B. whom C. who D. which
解析: 答案选B。whom, 关系代词,在定语从句中做with的宾语,指人。本句中的定语从句是非限制性定语从句。that不引导非限制性定语从句。
2. This is one of the best books _______ on the subject. (2000年)
A. that have ever been written B. which have ever been written
C. that has ever been written D. whatever have been written
解析: 答案选A。因为先行词books前有形容词的最高级best修饰,所以只能用that引导定语从句,选A。当先行词前有形容词最高级、only或very修饰时,要用that引导这个定语从句。定语从句中的谓语和先行词保持一致。
3. The United States is composed of fifty states, two of those are
A B
separated from the others by land or water. (2000年)
C D
解析: 答案选B。应改为:two of which。在非限制性定语从句中,限定词some, any, none, all, several以及表示数量的词可与of whom, of which连用。先行词是物用of which; 是人用of whom。本题中which指fifty states。
4. A curve曲线is a line _____ no part is straight and which has no angle. (2001)
A. that B. whose C. in which D. of which
解析: 答案选D。 “介词+关系代词”可引导定语从句。No part of 是固定短语,因此用of which, 而不用in which。
5. Before joining the army, he spent a lot of time in the village ______ he belonged (2001年)
A. to which B. which C. to where D. at which
解析: 答案选A。belong是不及物动词,其后接to之后才接宾语,belong to:属于。因此选to which。where是关系副词,不能置于介词之后。to which引导的从句是定语从句。
6. The experiment, _______ will soon be announced, was done by my colleagues. (2001年)
A. whose results B. the results on which C. at which the results D. of whose results
解析: 答案选A。此句为非限制性定语从句。关系代词whose在从句中作results的定语。whose是代词的所有格,它既可以代人也可以代物。
7. _______ is known to all, too much smoking will cause lung cancer. (2003年)
A. That B. It C. As D. What
解析: 答案选C。as 引导的是一个非限制性定语从句。as代替后面提到的句子。
8. Do not trust such men _______ often like to praise you to your face. (2004年)
A. who B. that C. as D. they
解析: 答案选C。当先行词被such修饰时其后的定语从句要用as引导。
9. In his latest article Tom criticizes the way which the war
A B C
is being handled. (1997年)
D
解析: 答案选C。名词way后接定语从句时要用that引导。C改为:that。
10. Helen was much kinder to her youngest child than she was to the others, ______, of course, made the others jealous. (2005年)
A. who B. what C. that D. which
解析: 答案选D。本题考察非限制性定语从句。关系代词which指代前面整个句子。在从句中作主语。
