A.单句填空
1.Or perhaps you are the only one ________ is interested in listening to the ballgame.
答案 who/that [分析句子结构知,空处引导定语从句,修饰先行词one, 指人且在从句中作主语,故填who/that。]
2.English is a language shared by several diverse cultures, each of ________ uses it differently.
答案 which [句意:英语是一种被好几种不同的文化都使用的语言,而且每一种文化使用它的方式也不同。设空处前后两部分之间既没有并列连词也没有从属连词,故后面部分应为定语从句,又因为先行词是cultures,且关系词在定语从句中作介词of的宾语,所以填which。]
3.A company ________ profits from home markets are declining may seek opportunities abroad.
答案 whose [句意:从国内市场得到的利润正在下降的公司可以去国外寻找机会。本题考查定语从句。先行词为company,将先行词代入定语从句后为:The company's profits from home markets are declining.由此可见关系词在定语从句中作定语,故填whose。]
4.We'll reach the sales targets in a month ________ we set at the beginning of the year.
答案 which/that [句意:一个月以后我们将会达到年初所定的销售目标。在本句中,先行词是the sales targets,关系代词在定语从句中作set的宾语,所以填关系代词which/that。]
5.The Greens stayed in Beijing for a week, during ________ they visited places of interest here guided by me.
答案 which [先行词为a week,表示时间,关系词在从句中作时间状语,故用during which引导定语从句。during which相当于when。]
6.Ellen was a painter of birds and nature, ________, for some reason, had withdrawn from all human society.
答案 who [先行词是a painter,从句中缺少主语,故用who在此引导定语从句。]
7.Take a couple breaths and think of something ________ gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.
答案 that [句意:深呼吸几次,然后想一想给你带来快乐的东西。该定语从句中缺主语,先行词为不定代词something。故填that。]
8.Florence in Italy, ________ beauty is beyond description, is the city that I have been dreaming of visiting.
答案 whose [句意:意大利的佛罗伦萨市的美丽是用言语难以描述的,它是我一直梦想去旅游的城市。本空需要关系代词引导定语从句并在从句中作定语,因此填whose。]
9.Nelson Mandela's death may, in the short term, unite South Africa in ways ________ have never been seen before.
答案 that/which [从语境看,本空需要关系代词引导定语从句修饰ways,并在从句中作主语,表示“以前从来没有人见过的方式”,因此这里用that/which引导定语从句。]
B.单句改错
1.It is a truly delightful place, as looks the same as it must have done 100 years ago with its winding streets and pretty cottages.
________________________________________________________
答案 第一个as→which [先行词是place,非限制性定语从句中缺主语,as往往有“正如,就像”的意思,不符合句意。]
2.The number of smokers, which is reported, has dropped by 17 percent in just one year.
________________________________________________________
答案 which→as [根据分析,此处指代的是整个句子,表示“如同,正如”,故用as。]
3.The books on the desk, which covers are shiny, are prizes for us.
________________________________________________________
答案 which→whose [先行词为the books,与covers是所属关系,故用whose。]
4.Please send us all the information which you have about the candidate for the position.
________________________________________________________
答案 which→that [先行词the information前有all修饰,故用that。]
5.Until now, we have raised 50,000 pounds for the poor children, that is quite unexpected.
________________________________________________________
答案 that→which [此处指代前面整个句子,且为非限制性定语从句,故用which。]
6.The whole city, 75% of its factories and buildings were gone, lay in ruins.
________________________________________________________
答案 its→whose [此处为定语从句,先行词city与factories and buildings为所属关系,故用whose。]
7.There are two lakes, that cover nearly one thousand square kilometers.
________________________________________________________
答案 that→which [先行词two lakes在定语从句中作主语,且为非限制性定语从句,故用which。]
8.John once talked to his mom about the people and cities which he had visited abroad.
________________________________________________________
答案 which→that [先行词为people and cities,既有人又有物,故用that。]
9.Those which were trapped under the ruins finally got rescued.
________________________________________________________
答案 which→who [先行词those指代人,且作主语,故用who。]
10.It was often the case, Miss Wang was the first to arrive at the school in the morning.
________________________________________________________
答案 It→As [分析句子结构可知,此处为定语从句,as was often the case,表示“这是常有的事”,故用as。]
