10.(2011•济南一模)She’s in a hopeless situation,________we will keep a very close eye on.
A.where B.when
C.which D.that
解析: 考查定语从句。定语从句的解题关键是:在主句中找出先行词,该句的先行词是a hopeless situation,然后把先行词“代入”从句中,判断其在从句中的“地位”和“作用”,此处关系词在从句中作on的宾语,同时这里又是非限制性定语从句,所以应该用关系代词which,选C项。
答案: C
11.(2011•郑州二检)The CCTV Spring Festival Gala is a big stage,________many new actors or actresses are to become famous.
A.where B.when
C.that D.which

We first broke the law in a way which was peaceful;when this was not allowed...only then did we decide to answer violence with violence.
首先我们用和平的方式来破坏法律;而当这种方式也得不到允许时,……只有到这个时候我们才决定用暴力反抗暴力。
(1)in a way which was peaceful=in a peaceful way
way后面跟的是一个定语从句。way如在后面的定语从句中作主语或宾语时,引导词用that或which;如作状语,可用in which或that引导,且引导词可省略。
①I don’t like the way that/in which you treated him.
我不喜欢你对待他的方式。
②He offered some ways that/which worked very well in practice.
他提供了一些办法,这些办法在实践中很有效。
③The way that/which you thought of to solve the problem was good.你想出的解决问题的办法很好。

⑤Only in this way can you learn English well.
只有用这种方法你才能学好英语。
⑥Only when he came back from work did I go to bed last night.

如果置于句首的由only引导的词语不是状语就不用倒装。
Only you can solve the problem.只有你能解决这个问题。
12.He doesn’t like the way________you treat a girl.
A.which B.that
C.in that D.by which
解析: 当way在从句中指方式时,它后面的定语从句中的关系代词常用that,in which或者不填。这里的that不能与which替换。
答案: B

A.only when B.until then
C.only through D.until when
解析: 根据题干后面的can you survive in the highly competitive society可知,这是一个倒装句。而根据选项可知,能构成倒装的只有A、C两项。此外,因为题干中的lifelong study是名词短语,而不是句子,不能用when,故答案是C。语意为:必须牢记在心的是,只有通过终生学习,你才能在竞争激烈的社会中生存。
答案: C
15.(2010•吉林实验中学一模)Only if________the examinations________get the gift promised by your father.

A.devotes B.spends

答案: A
2.________to his research work,the professor cared little about any other things.
A.Devoting B.Devoted
C.Having devoted D.To devote
解析: devote是及物动词,一般用法是sb.is devoted to(doing)sth.或devote oneself to(doing)sth.。本句中the professor和devote之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系,故用过去分词形式devoted作原因状语。本句话意思是“教授致力于研究工作,对其他任何事情都关心甚少”。
答案: B
3.Mr Reed made up his mind to devote all he had to________some schools for poor children.
A.set up B.setting up
C.have set up D.having set up

答案: B
4.(2010•西安四校二模)The time he has devoted in the past few years________the disabled is now considered________of great value.
A.to help;being B.to help;to be
C.to helping;to be D.to helping;being

A.which;sight B.whose;view
C.its;view D.where;sight
解析: 考查定语从句。该句的先行词是The Dragon Tower,在从句中表示所属关系,应该用关系代词whose。第二空为常用短语a good view of,表示“清楚地看到……”,据此选B项。
答案: B
2.(2010•福建龙岩毕业班质检)Remember that there is still one point________we must make clear at the conference tomorrow.
A.where B.why
C.when D.that
解析: 考查定语从句。解定语从句题的关键是:在主句中找出先行词,该句的先行词是one point,然后把先行词“代入”从句中,判断其在从句中的“地位”和“作用”,这里先行词在从句中作make clear的宾语,所以用关系代词that/which引导定语从句并在从句中作宾语,据此选D项。
答案: D
3.(2010•浙江金华联考)American women usually identify their best friend as someone________they can talk frequently.
