主语从句
1.The limits of a person’s intelligence,generally speaking,are fixed at birth,but________he reaches these limits will depend on his environment.

解析: 考查主语从句的引导词。句意为:一个人的智力极限,通常来说,出生时就已经定型了,但他是否能够达到这些极限则取决于他的生活环境。根据“depend on”可知,主语从句“________he reaches these limits”中含有不确定因素,故用whether,选B。

解析: 考查名词性从句。分析句子结构可知,答语是回答上面句子中的主语“What”的,故此句是一个主语从句,缺少引导词,而引导词在从句中不充当成分,故用“That”。
