Ⅳ.微语法(15)——同位语从句
(课外拓展——一个单元突破一个语法点)
1．I made a promise to myself________this year，my first year in high school，would be different. (2012·浙江，4)
A．whether
B．what
C．that
D．how
答案 C
解析 that引导同位语从句，在从句中不作句子成分，补充说明promise的内容。
2．Evidence has been found through years of study ________ children’s early sleeping problems are likely to continue when they grow up.
(2012·重庆，34)
A．why
B．how
C．whether
D．that
答案 D
解析 句意为：经过多年的研究，证据已经被找到，孩子们的早期睡眠问题在长大后可能会继续。分析题意可知“children’s early sleeping problems are...grow up”是evidence的同位语，而从句中不缺少句子成分，故用that引导该同位语从句。
3．When the news came ________ the war broke out，he decided to serve in the army.
(2011·辽宁，32)
A．since
B．which
C．that
D．because
答案 C
解析 句意为：当战争爆发的消息传来的时候，他决定去参军。the war broke out是news的具体内容，作news的同位语，且从句中不缺少句子成分，所以用连接词that。that引导同位语从句虽不作任何成分，但不能省略。
4．The fact has worried many scientists ________ the earth is becoming warmer and warmer these years.
(2009·江西，33)
A．what
B．which
C．that
D．though
答案 C
解析 分析句式结构可知此处缺少同位语从句的引导词，从句意义、结构均完整，所以选that。
5．Word comes ________ free souvenirs will be given to ________ comes first.
A．what；no matter whom
B．that；whoever
C．which；whomever
D．that；no matter who
答案 B
解析 考查同位语从句和宾语从句。第一空引导的是word的同位语从句，从句中不缺成分故用that引导；第二空引导的是宾语从句，所填词在从句中作主语，故选B项。“no matter＋疑问词”不能引导名词性从句。
