经典习题

　　1. The film brought the hours back to me _________ I was taken good care of in that faraway village.

　　A. until B. that C. when D. where

　　解析：答案为C。本题考查分隔定语从句的关系词的选择。作好本题的关键是要能辨认出该定语从句的先行词the hours和关系词被介词短语to me所分隔。定语从句的先行词是表时间的名词hours, 并且关系词在从句中用作状语，故应选择表示时间的关系副词when。

　　2. ___________ is known to everybody, the noon travels around the earth once every month.

　　A. It B. As C. That D. What

　　解析：答案为B。本题考查as引导的非限制定语从句。as作“正如……”解时，引导的非限制性定语从句来修饰整个句子。当as在从句中作主语时，常用于下列短语：as is known、as is said、as is reported、as is announced等。要注意掌握作关系代词引导定语从句的用法。

　　3. After living in Pairs for fifty years he returned to the small town ___________ he grew up as a child.

　　A. which B. where C. that D. when

　　解析：答案为B。本题考查限制性定语从句中关系词的选择。定语从句的先行词是表示地点的名词短语the small town, 且关系词不作定语从句中的主语和宾语而作地点状语，因此定语从句必须用关系副词where引导。要注意分清先行词在从句中充当的成分，然后选择适当的关系词。

　　4. The English play my students acted at the New Year’s party was a great success.

　　A. for which B. at which C. in which D. on which

　　解析：答案为C。考定语从句。主句部分应是The English play at the New Year’s party was a great success.从句补全为独立句子应是my students acted in the play。所以应选in which，其余介词不妥。

　　5. There were dirty marks on her trousers she had wiped her hands.

　　A. where B. which C. when D. that

　　解析：答案为A。本题考地点状语从句，用where引导。句意是“她的裤子上她擦过手的地方有脏痕”。此处不能用时间状语从句，排除C，本题易被误认为考定语从句，意为“在她擦过手的裤子上有脏痕”。定语从句修饰trousers，也只能用where。B和D可引导定语从句，但只作主、宾等成分。定语从句缺少状语，不缺主语、宾语，故不可用。

　　6. The journey around the world took the old sailor nine months, the sailing time was 226 days.

　　A. of which B. during which C. from which D. for which

　　解析：答案为A。本题考定语从句，关系代词which指代the journey，定语从句恢复为独立句子应是：The sailing time of the journey was 226 days,故选of which。
