where和why引导名词性从句时,在从句中分别作地点状语和原因状语;that引导名词性从句时,在从句中不作任何成分,也无词义;whether引导名词性从句时,意为“是否”。故只有b项符合题意。
答案:b2.(2012·湖南高考)everyone in the village is very friendly. it doesn't matteryou h**e lived there for a short or a long time.
a.why b.how
c.whether d.when

a.whether b.where

答案:d4.(2012·课标全国)it is by no means clearthe president can do to end the strike.
a.how b.which
c.that d.what
解析:分析句子结构可知,it为形式主语,代替的是后面的主语从句,在主语从句中,及物动词do需要宾语,所以应选用连接代词what引导该从句。句意:
**能做点儿什么来结束这场罢工根本不清楚。
答案:d5.(2012·山东高考)it doesn't matteryou pay by cash or credit card in this store.
a.how b.whether
c.what d.why

在此句中,it为形式主语,真正的主语是whether you pay by cash or credit card in this store。故选b项。
答案:b6.(2012·天津高考)it doesn't matteryou turn right or left at the crossing—both roads lead to the park.
a.whether b.how
c.if d.when
解析:句意:在十字路口,你是向右拐还是向左拐都无所谓,两条路都通向那个公园。whether在此处引导主语从句,并与or呼应。
答案:a7.(2012·福建高考)we promiseattends the party a chance to h**e a photo taken with the movie star.
a.who b.whom
c.whoever d.whomever
解析:由于空前没有名词或代词作先行词,所以此处不是考查定语从句,排除引导词who,whom;由空后的谓语动词attends可知此处应该用主格的whoever,排除whomever;whoever引导宾语从句并在从句中作主语。故选c项。
答案:c8.(2012·辽宁高考)the newcomer went to the library the other day and searched for___he could find about mark twain.
a.wherever b.however
c.whatever d.whichever
解析:此处为介词for后面的宾语从句,且从句中缺少及物动词find的宾语,故排除a项和b项。句意:
这位新来的人前几天进入一家图书馆搜寻他能找到的有关马克·吐温的东西。whichever侧重在已知项中进行选择,不合句意。故c项正确。
答案:c9.(2012·陕西高考)as many as five courses are provided, and you are free to choosesuits you best.
a.whatever b.whichever
c.whenever d.wherever
解析:句意:提供的课程多达五种,你可以任意选择最适合你的一门课程。

答案:b13.(2012·浙江高考)i made a promise to myselfthis year, my first year in high school, would be different.
