　　A. so as that B. in order that C. providing D. as to

　　A. as B. what C. than D. like2. 答案：C

　　解析：四个选择项都是从属连词，都可引导状语从句。题意：虽然我承认这些问题很难解决，但我不同意这些问题不可解决。

　　3. 答案：C

　　解析：解此题时，可将四个选择逐个放入空当处试试哪个最为合适。A 不行, so 如果作为程度副词放到句首，句子要部分倒装。B 排除，D 也排除。despite 是介词，它后面应接名词。C 放入句中正合适，however 引导让步状语从句，相当于no matter how 。

　　4. 答案：B

　　解析：从句法上看，D 首先可以排除。A、B、C 均可填入空当处，但从前后意思上判断，只有B 合适。for fear that作“以免、以防”讲，它引导的从句的动词要求用虚拟式。题意：她没将坏消息透露给母亲，以防她精神崩溃。

　　5. 答案：A

　　解析：根据空当后谓语形式可推知：空当后一定有一个从句，而且从句的谓语部分为must be kept secret 。而前面的部分为从句的主语。这部分中又有动词的谓语形式，因此它一定是一个有主语的从句。可排除关系代词who 和which; 因空当部分在主语从句中作主语，又可排除that (that 引导名词性从句时在从句中不充当任何成分)。whatever 正合适，它可以引导名词性从句。

　　6. 答案：D

　　解析：此题考whether 和if 作为从属连词引导宾语从句的区别。whether 可以和or (not) 连用，而if 不可以。据此，即可做出正确选择D。

　　7. 答案：D

　　解析：此题空当前为一个完整的主谓结构，空当后出现动词的谓语形式，四个选择项又无并列连词，因此判定逗号后为一个从句。根据空当前后内容判断，逗号后为一个非限定性定语从句，从句的先行词为整个句子。

　　8. 答案：C

　　解析：reason 后接从句，说明具体内容，只用why。因此即可将A、B、D 排除。本题中的why 从句可以被视为一个定语从句，也可被视为是一个同位语从句。

　　9. 答案：C

　　解析：根据空当前后内容可推知题意：那棵树枝几乎光秃的树是一棵很老的树。逗号隔开的是一个非限性定语从句，空当处应填关系词。whose 不行，因它一般修饰名词。B、C、D 的区别在于介词。因树枝和树为所属关系，所以选C。the branches of which 也可用whose branches 代替。

　　10. 答案：B

　　解析：如先行词为表示时间的名词，如time 、day 等，定语从句应用关系副词when 引导。此题便是一例。

　　11. 答案：A

　　解析： in that 可引导原因状语从句，对前面的内容加以解释和说明，可译为“在于”、“因为”。B、C、D 不合题意，均可排除。

　　12. 答案：C

　　解析：根据空当前后内容可推知：空当处缺少一个关系代词引导非限定性定语从句，此关系代词指人，在从句中作宾语。A、B、C、D 中，只有whom 合适。that 不可引导非限定性定语从句，因此C 为正确选择。

　　13. 答案：B

　　解析：某些副词也可以用作从属连词，引导时间状语从句，表示“一⋯⋯就⋯⋯”。这类副词有：instantly, immediately, directly 。某些表示时间的名词加上定冠词the，也可以起连词的作用，引导时间状语从句，译为“一⋯⋯就⋯⋯”，如：the moment, the time, the second 。D 因缺少the, 故排除;A 为形容词，不可引导状语从句。正确选择为B。

　　14. 答案：C

　　解析：此题考not… until 的一种变化形式。注意till 和until 的区别：until 可置于句首，而till 不可置于句首。因此正确选择为C。

　　15. 答案：D

　　解析：如先行词为表示地点的名词，其后的定语从句一般用where 引导。从空当前后部分的内容推知，逗号后为一个非限定性定语从句。因先行词表示地点，因此D 为正确选择。

　　16. 答案：D

　　解析：that 在引导主语从句时常采用it is + 形容词/名词/分词 + that 从句的句型，即由it 作形式主语，而把主语从句放在句子后半部分。

　　17. 答案：A

　　解析：that 引导的主语从句位于句首时，that 不能省略。

　　18. 答案：A

　　解析：that 在引导表语从句表示陈述时，that 不能省略。

　　19. 答案：B

　　解析：此句中that 引导的是同位语从句，用来补充说明名词suggestion 。需要特别注意的是that 在引导同位语从句及其他名词性从句时，只起单纯的连接作用，不在从句中充当任何成分。它一般置于抽象名词之后，如：belief, conviction doubt, explanation, fact, fear, feeling, guarantee, hope, idea, indication, message, news, opinion, order, proof, rumour, suggestion, thought wish, word 等。

　　20. 答案：A

　　解析：此句中whether 用于引导表语从句，并与or not 连用。whether 还可以引导主语从句，宾语从句，同位语从句。if只能引导宾语从句(不包括介词宾语从句)。

　　21. 答案：C

　　解析：尽管if 可引导宾语从句，但在discuss、decide 等动词后通常接whether 引导的宾语从句。

　　22. 答案：C

　　解析：do you think 后面不能接whether 或if 从句，而要接that 从句。

　　23. 答案：D

　　解析：主句里有doubt (动词形式或名词形式)的否定句、疑问句时，用that 引导名词从句。在其肯定句中用whether或if 引导名词从句，如：I doubt whether/if he can come.

　　24. 答案：D

　　解析：that 引导的从句作介词宾语，常见于in that (在某方面、因为)，except that (除了、只是)，save that(除了)，but that (除了)，besides that (除了)结构之中。又如：I can say nothing but that the injured must be sent to hospital at once.

　　25. 答案：B

　　解析：引导宾语从句及其他名词性从句时，that 和whether 在从句中不充当成分，而what 和when 要充当成分。what 常在从句中充当主语或宾语。该句中what 在从句中作宾语。26. 答案：A

　　解析：此句中，用于引导主语从句的连接词指人，而且在从句中作主语。这时的主语从句相当于带有定语从句作后置修饰的名词词组，即：Anyone who told you to quit smoking is right. 有类似用法的连接词还有：what, whatever, whichever, wherever。

　　27. 答案：A

　　解析：do you suppose (guess 、believe 、imagine 、say、think) 结构与含有疑问意义的连接代词、连接副词连用时，连接代词、连接副词应置于句首。形容词性从句即定语从句(attributive clause)，也称为关系分句(relative clause)，依照其与先行词之间的关系可分为限定性定语从句(restrictive attributive clause )和非限定性定语从句(non-restrictive attributive clause)。用于引导定语从句的关系代词有：who, whom, whose, that, which, as ;关系副词有：where, when, why, how。

　　28. 答案：D

　　解析：用来指人并在定语从句中作宾语(包括介词宾语和动词宾语)时，通常选择关系代词whom 。

　　29. 答案：A

　　解析：关系代词在定语从句中作表语时，通常用that 指人或物，而且常可省略。

　　30. 答案：B

　　解析：先行词是既指人又指物的并列名词词组时，通常用that 引导定语从句为宜。

　　31. 答案：B

　　解析：先行词是all 或其他指物的不定代词(如something 、anything 、nothing 、everything )时，通常用that 引导定语从句，先行词是all(指人)或其他指人的不定代词(anybody 、everybody、nobody )时，既可用that ，也可用who 引导定语从句。

　　32. 答案：A

　　解析：先行词前有only 、all、any、every 、no、some、one of、last、next 、very 等修饰词，则关系代词用that。

　　33. 答案：B

　　解析：先行词带有最高级修饰语或序数词时，关系代词通常用that。

　　34. 答案：A

　　解析：先行词指主句的整个意思时，通常用关系代词which 。

　　35. 答案：B

　　解析：关系代词在定语从句中作of 的介词宾语，而且介词of 前置时，须用which 引导定语从句。句中的形容词proud与of 搭配，后跟宾语。

　　36. 答案：B

　　解析：as 可作关系代词，引导非限制性定语从句。它的位置比较灵活，可出现在句尾，也可以在句首或句中。which引导定语从句时位置比较固定，通常位于句尾，而不可以移至句首。

　　37. 答案：B

　　解析：as 可在“such… as”、“the same…as ”和“as…as”等结构中作关系代词，引导定语从句。在“such…as”结构中，as 有时用that 替换。

　　38. 答案：B

　　解析：the same as 是固定用法。as 在此句中是关系代词。

　　39. 答案：C

　　解析：能在定语从句中表示所有关系，作定语用的关系代词是whose (既可指人，也可指物)。

　　40. 答案：A

　　解析：除了关系代词whose 可表示所有关系以外，还可借助of which 结构表示所有关系。

　　41. 答案：B

　　解析：当先行词是reason 时，用关系副词why 引导定语从句，它在从句中用作状语。

　　42. 答案：A

　　解析：当先行词是时间名词，而且关联词在定语从句中作时间状语时，选用关系副词when 引导定语从句。但要特别注意的是，若关联词不在从句中作时间状语，而是作宾语等成分，这时尽管先行词是时间名词，关联词也要选用关系代词，如：This is the day which/that I’ll remember forever.

　　43. 答案：C

　　解析：由where 引导的定语从句的先行词通常是表示地点的词，而且where 在定语从句中作地点状语，如关联词在从句中作宾语，则应用which ，如：This is the place which we visited last year.

　　44. 答案：D

　　解析： directly 偶尔用作从属连词，意为“一⋯⋯就⋯⋯”，用来引导时间状语从句。其他三个选项均为副词。用于引导时间状语从句的从属连词还有：after, as before, since, ever since, till, until, when, whenever, while, whenever, as soon as, no sooner…than, hardly/scarcely/barely…when, immediately, instantly, every time, the moment, the minute 。

　　45. 答案：A

　　解析：当主句里有was/were about to do 时，when 引导时间状语从句是递进的含义(此时、那时)，表示没有料到的事情。

　　46. 答案：D

　　解析：此句空白处需填入一个从属连词，而且从句是表示地点的状语从句，所以选D。可用来引导地点状语从句的从属连词还有where 。

　　47. 答案：D

　　解析：此句中只有because 是连词，用于引导原因状语从句。可引导原因状语从句的连接词还有：since, as, now that, seeing that, considering that。

　　48. 答案：C

　　解析：本句中的considering that 可理解为短语连词，表示原因。

　　49. 答案：B

　　解析：此句中in case 作从属连词，引导表示目的的状语从句。可引导此类状语从句的连接词还有：that, so that, in order that, for fear that (以免)，in case (以防)， lest(以免)。

　　50. 答案：B

　　解析：in order that 是短语连词，表示目的。
