答案解析

1. D。what made matters worse 是主语从句(注意其后有谓语动词was)，相当于 the thing that made matters worse。

2. C。答句为省略句，其完整形式为 I was trying to prove to the police where I was last night，在此 where 引导的是一个宾语从句。类似地，

3. D。what 引导的是表语从句，what 在此相当于 the things that。

4. D。根据其后的black or white可推知。

5. C。whether引导表语从句。意为“是否”。句意为“医生真正怀疑的是是否我妈妈能很快从疾病中复原”。

6. C。此题考查whatever= anything that，相当于一个定语从句。选项A在that前加anything, 其他选项不符合题意。

7. A 介词 to 后面是宾语从句，要用引导词，排除 C；no matter which不能引导名词性从句，只能引导状语从句，排除 D；whoever 只能作主语，而本题缺的是定语，排除 B。

8. D。前面是主语从句缺少主语，只能用 what；后面也只有用 whether(是否)引导表语从句意义才通顺。

9. A 因为介词 from 后应是宾语从句，排除不能引导宾语从句的 B 和D。又因为 get to 应接地点，所以选 A。也可由 by tomorrow evening 来排除C。

10. C。因为意义不肯定，应选择表示“是否”意义的连词，排除 A 和B；又因为 on 是介词，在介词后只能用 whether。

11. D。reach是个及物动词，所以后面部分是宾语从句，去掉宾语从句中的they thought，后可以看出宾语从句缺少主语，故用what。they’d been dreaming of为定语从句，修饰the place。句意为：经过 5 个小时的行驶，他们来到了他们认为是他们梦寐以求的地方。

12. D。that was 后面部分很明显是个表语从句。去掉表语从句中的I thought 后可以看出表语从句还缺少主语，故选what。

13. C。此题考查由whoever引导的宾语从句，whoever 作宾语从句的主语。如不撇开they thought，则易误选A。

14. C。he expects 是插入语，从句缺少的是主语，故用 who。

15. A。去掉冗余信息(插入语he believed)，我们可以看出后面是一个宾语从句，且宾语从句缺少主语，故答案为A。

16. C。how在此表方式，其后的it指前面提到的情况。全句意为：这儿的海滨每年夏天都要吸引许许多多的游客，这都是这儿温暖的阳光和柔软的沙滩的功劳。

17. A。where在此引导表语从句，表示“……的地方”，又如：This is where the river is deepest. 这是河流的最深处。This is where I first met her. 这就是我初次与她会面的地方。The coat is where you left it. 大衣还在你原来放的地方。

18. B。两空均填 what，均用于引导宾语从句，因为两个宾语从句中的动词 said 和do 均缺宾语，而在各个选项中只有 what 可用作宾语。

19. A。what 引导宾语从句。由于动词 wants 缺宾语，所以填 what。句意是：当你找工作面试回答问题时，请记住这条黄金定律：永远给予对方确实想要的东西。

20. A。I can to save them 为 I can do to save them 之略，此句中的 do 缺宾语，故选 whatever。
