A．whenB．if
C．andD．till
解析： 句意为：汤姆正要关上窗户，就在这时一只鸟引起了他的注意。在句式“...be about to do when...”中，when作并列连词，相当于and at that time，句中was about to do为标志词，故答案为A项。
答案： A

A．whenB．while

解析： 句意为：昨天她刚做完作业，她妈妈就让她练钢琴。when在本句中作并列连词，意为：and at that time。while作并列连词，表示“对比转折”；after为从属连词或介词，意为“在……之后”；since自从……时候，既然……。

答案： B
Indeed，sir，I hope you’ll come here whenever you like.真的，先生， 我希望您想来的时候，您就来。
whenever意为“在任何时候，无论何时”。
(1)whenever，wherever，however引导让步状语从句，相当于no matter when/where/how。
(2)whatever，whoever，whichever，whomever既可引导名词性从句，也可引导让步状语从句，在引导让步状语从句时相当于no matter what/who/which/whom。
(3)however用作连接副词，相当于no matter how，引导让步状语从句，意思是“不管怎样……；无论如何……”，具体结构为：however＋形容词/副词＋主语＋谓语。
①Whenever we met with difficulties，they came to help us.
每当我们遇到困难的时候，他们都会帮助我们。

15.(2010·上海卷)________you may have，you should gather your courage to face the challenge.
A．However a serious problem
B．What a serious problem
C．However serious a problem
D．What serious a problem
解析： 句意为：不论你的问题有多严重，你都应该鼓起勇气，接受挑战。考查状语从句。分析题干可知逗号前是让步状语从句，what不能用来引导状语从句，所以排除B、D两项；however＋adj.＋a/an＋单数名词＝whatever＋a/an＋adj.＋单数名词，故C项正确。
答案： C
Well，towards nightfall I found myself carried out to sea by a strong wind.
哦，快到黄昏的时候，我发现自己被一阵大风刮到了大海上。
find oneself...发现自己处于某种境地，而且含有一种“在不知不觉中……”的意思。
①When day broke，we found ourselves in a small village at the foot of the mountain.
天亮时，我们发现自己来到了那座山脚下的一个小村子里。

A．surrounding；looked
B．surrounded；looked
C．surrounding；looking
D．surrounded；looking
解析： 动词的过去分词充当宾补，表示被动；动词的现在分词充当宾补，表示主动。根据句意应选D。
答案： D
17．A cook will be immediately fired if he is found ________ in the kitchen.
A．smokeB．smoking
C．to smoke D．smoked
解析： 句意为：如果发现厨师在厨房里吸烟，他将马上被解雇。本题考查的是“find＋宾语＋宾补”的结构，主语补足语的选择与宾语补足语的选择方法相同。由“发现厨师在厨房里吸烟”，可知“厨师”与“吸烟”之间在逻辑上是主谓关系(或主动关系)且强调“吸烟”这一动作正在进行之中。所以smoking是最佳答案。
答案： B

Ⅱ.巧思妙解
1．(2009·陕西卷)The howto book can be of help to________wants to do the job.
A．who B．whomever
C．no matter who
D．whoever
解析： 句意为：指南类的书对想从事这项工作的任何人都会有帮助。本题考查名词性从句。首先排除C项，no matter who只能引导状语从句；who表特指；whomever与whoever同样可以表示任何人，但设空处连接代词需作宾语从句的主语，故排除B项。
答案： D
2．(浙江高考)________wants to stay in a hotel has to pay their own way.
A．Anyone
B．The one
C．Whoever
D．Who
解析： 句意为：任何一个想住在旅馆里的人必须支付自己的费用。whoever此处引导名词性从句，相当于anyone who。anyone和the one后少who，who表特指，故被排除。
答案： C
3．(2011·东城第一学期检测)The magnificent tower must be saved，________the cost!
A．howeverB．whichever
C．whateverD．wherever
解析： 考查连词。该句是省略句，省略了谓语动词is，补充完整就是whatever the cost is，由此可以看出从句中缺少的是表语。whichever表示在特定范围内选择，而句中没有可供选择的范围，所以要用whatever，相当于no matter what，在此引导让步状语从句。
答案： C
4．(辽宁高考)________hungry I am，I never seem to be able to finish off this loaf of bread.
A．WhateverB．Whenever
C．WhereverD．However
解析： 句意为：无论我多饿，看来我都吃不了那大片面包。A.无论什么，常与名词连用或引导名词性从句；B.无论什么时候；C.无论在哪里；D.无论多么或怎样，常与形容词或副词连用，故选D。
答案： D
5．________we gave him something to eat，he would save it up for his little sister.
A．WhateverB．However
C．WhicheverD．Whenever
解析： 考查连词。句意为：“无论何时我们给他东西吃，他总是留下一些给他小妹妹。”
答案： D

—That’s________we should help each other.
A．when
B．where
C．how
D．what
解析： 考查名词性从句。where引导的从句作表语，where在句中的意思是“……的地方”。
答案： B
2．(2011·北京东城区期末)Water，which seems so simple and common，is________makes life possible.
A．what
B．that
C．which
D．how
解析： 考查表语从句。名词性从句的解题原则是“缺什么补什么”，此处表语从句“________makes life possible”中缺少“主语”，同时“主语”不表示“人”，用what(表示人时应该选用who)。
答案： A
3．(2011·北京海淀区期末)Sorry I’m so late，but you cannot imagine________great trouble I took to find your house.
A．what
B．how
C．which
D．why
解析： 考查宾语从句。take great trouble to do something表示“不辞辛劳地做某事”。在此，what引导的宾语从句同时是一个感叹句，what修饰名词trouble。而how在感叹句中修饰形容词或副词。
答案： A
4．(2010·成都毕业班诊断性检测)Professor Backman took up scientific research for decades，and this is________he devoted all his life to.
A．whichB．what
C．whereD．how
解析： 考查名词性从句。what引导表语从句且在从句中作介词to的宾语，表示“什么”。

答案： B
