Ⅳ.语法过关 主语从句 1．________ he considered a great proposal was turned down by the boss at the meeting. 答案：What 考查主语从句。句意：他认为很好的一个提议在会议上被老板否定了。空处引导主语从句，在从句中作宾语，不指人，故填what。
2．________ is known to all is that the Diaoyu Islands have belonged to China since ancient times. 答案：What 考查名词性从句。句意：钓鱼岛自古就属于中国，这是大家都知道的。what引导的是主语从句，并在主语从句中作主语。
3．—What has made John look like lacking sleep? —________ he had to prepare for the coming exam and stayed up last night. 答案：That 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”。
4．It remains to be seen ________ this plan is practical enough to keep the project going. 答案：whether 考查主语从句。句意：这个计划是否足够实用，以使这个项目继续下去还有待观察。it是形式主语，真正的主语是whether引导的从句。whether“是否”，符合句意。 5．It makes his life quite different ________ he has received higher education abroad. 答案：that 考查主语从句。本句中的it是形式主语，真正的主语是“that he has received higher education abroad”。
