3.(2012·江苏高考命题专家原创卷十五)It is reported that the drivers won’t go back to work until their demand for better pay________. A.is to satisfy
B.is satisfied C.will be satisfied
D.has satisfied
解析:选B。考查时态和语态。satisfy one’s demand 满足某人的要求,故从句的主语demand与谓语动词satisfy之间为被动关系,所以用被动语态;又因为until引导的是时间状语从句,所以用一般现在时代替一般将来时。
4.(2012·江苏高考名校联考信息优化卷九)—Are you quite________of your parents now? —Yes,as soon as I left school,I stopped asking my parents for money. A.individual
B.independent C.lonely

8.Some of the survivors told the reporters about their________ in the terrible earthquake in Wenchuan. A.trips
B.experience C.details

B.struggled C.having struggled
D.to struggle
解析:选C。句意:几个月以来,Dina一直努力想找一份女服务员的工作,最终她在当地一个广告代理处谋到了一个职位。设空处与句子主语为逻辑上的主动关系,故排除B项;不定式作状语一般表示目的,故排除 D项;C项相当于: Dina had struggled for months to find a job as a waitress.而A项相当于:Dina was struggling for months to find a job as a waitress.根据句意可知,C项更符合要求,故为答案。

Upon finishing 关系代词引导的定语从句 1.(2012·安徽“江南十校”联考)—What does the notice say? —All the storytellers should meet at the same hall________ won the first three prizes.
单元语法 A.what B.as C.who
D.which 解析:选C。根据句法,这是个分隔式定语从句,从句“________won the first three prizes”缺少主语,先行词all the storytellers指人,所以用关系代词who或that,且不能省略。
2.(2012·江苏泰州一模)—We shall take the conditions into careful account________you have attached to this contract. —Thanks.Hope for further cooperation. A.as
B.which C.where
D.what
解析:选B。句意:——我们将认真考虑你附在这份合同上的条件。——谢谢。希望能进一步合作。本题考查定语从句。先行词是conditions,定语从句中have attached缺少宾语,因此用关系代词which。
3.(2012·湖南六校仿真模拟)I can’t help but remember the precious child________smile has brought me countless hours of joy throughout the years. A.whose
B.who C.whom
D.of which
解析:选A。句意:我总是情不自禁地想起那个宝贝孩子,在这几年他的微笑给我带来了无尽的快乐时光。本题考查定语从句。句中child为先行词,代入定语从句后为:The child’s smile has brought me countless hours of joy throughout the years.由此可知先行词在定语从句中作定语,故答案为A项。
