2、ve their own way to tell the shape of an object and it is rough or smooth.A./ B.whetherC.how D.what答案B考点考查宾语从句。解析从语法上分析, and后面的部分也应是tell的宾语, 所以要填一个宾语从句引导词。what在从句中无成分可作, 所以不合适；how则意义不对；而whether正合句意。05辽宁Do you have any ideais actually going on in the classroom?A.thatB.whatC.asD.which答案B考点考查同位语从句。解析在这
3、里, 所填词引导的从句是对前面名词idea内容的解释, 所以应是同位语从句。同位语从句中缺主语, 根据题意, 答案应为what。05山东The shopkeeper did not want to sell forhe thought was not enough.A.whereB.howC.whatD.which答案C考点本题考查了引导名词性从句的连词的用法。解析四个选项中只有what和which可以在从句中充当主语, 而which 在名词从句中意为“哪一个”, 因此在本题中意思不对, 故选择C。句意为：店主不想以在他看来不足够高的价钱来卖东西。05浙江Danby left word wit
