【答案与解析】
1. 选 C。先行词是 those，可视为 those flowers 之省略。they once grew 前省略了关系代词 which。全句意为：这儿所养的花是由他们曾在森林里种植的花培养出来的。
2. 选D。by which time 引出的是一个非限制性定语从句，其中 by which time 相当于 and by that time。
3. 选 A。注意不能选 D，因为动词 explained 缺宾语。
4. 选 D。which 指 the road map。
5. 选C。from whose efforts he still suffers 为修饰 a serious illness 的定语从句，whose 在定语从句中用作定语，修饰 efforts。
6. 选B。where 引导定语从句修饰 one。注：one 在此指 a new job。类似地，下面一题的答案是C，因为one that 相当于 a problem that：
The problem is _____ has caused us a lot of trouble.
A. one B. that
C. one that D. that one
7. 选 D。先行词是表时间的 age(时代)，由于关系词在定语从句中作状语，故用 when。
8. 选C。该句的正常词序为 We will try to spend the little time we have together wisely.
9. 选C。第一空填 which，指 the old building;第二空填 where，用以引导表语从句。
10. 选 C。先行词是地点名词 places，由于关系词在定语从句中作状语，故用 where。
11. 选A。when 引导的是非限制性定语从句。
12. 选C。that once grew in the forest 为修饰 those 的定语从句。
13. 选B。where 在此相当于 the place where。
14. 选 B。the price of which was very reasonable 为非限制性定语从句，其中的 the price of which 相当于 and its price 或 and the price of it。假若空格前有并列连词 and，则可选 C。
15. 选B。that will help a cold 为修饰 what 的定语从句。比较：Have you got anything that will help a cold? 以及 I’ve got nothing that will help a cold.
16. 选B。the way 后不接how 引导的从句，换句说，how 不是关系代词或关系副词，不能引导定语从句。以the way 为先行词的定语从句通常用 that 或 in which 来引导，在非正式文体中也可省略 that 和 in which。
17. 选D。from whose house the pictures were stolen 为修饰 the man 的定语从句，whose 在定语从句中用作定语，修饰 house。
18. 选 D。先行词是 many cases，关系副词 where =in which。
19. 选A。尽管句中用了 if you married me, I’d give you everything 这样的虚拟语气句子，但修饰everything 的定语从句 (that) you want 却要用陈述语语气，因为它是回答前面 Is this all that you need? 这一提问的。
20. 选 D。因定语从句缺主语，且关系代词指人，故选D。
21. 选A。where 所引导的为修饰 a dangerous situation 的定语从句。
22. 选 A。选项中的 I think 是插入语，若略去不看便可清楚地看出答案。
23. 选 B。of course 为插入语，若将项其去掉，则答案显然是B。
24. 选C。that which相当于 the problem which。
25. 选B。the leaves of which 相当于 whose leaves。
26. 选 D。先行词是 The famous basketballer(著名的篮球明星)，故要用 who 来引导定语从句，因为其余三项均不用于指人。
27. 选 C。which 引导一个非限制性定语从句，其中 which 指代 a cheaper one，且在定语从句中用作主语。which was what 中的 what引导一个表语从句，它相当于 the one that。
