A.that; what B. what; 不填 C. which; that D. 不填; that
［答案］ B
［解析］ 第一个下划线处应填入一个可以引导of的宾语从句泛指“你现在所拥有的东西”且在该宾语从句内部充当have的宾语的词， 这样的引导词只能是what， 由此可以直接排除选项A、 C、 D而选出B。

A. What; what B. What; that C. That; that D. That; what
［答案］ A
［解析］ 名词性从句what we can’t get和what we have中what都充当宾语， 都属于关系代词型的what， 本身不表示疑问而表示泛指相关的事物； “what we can’t get”相当于包含定语从句的“things that we can’t get”， “what we have”相当于包含定语从句的“things that we have”。

A. why B. what C. who D. that

10. Information has been put forward ____ more middle school graduates will be admitted into universities. (上海2000)
A. while B. that C. when D. as
［答案］ B
［解析］ 陈述客观情况的名词性从句的引导词之后是完整的陈述句， 引导词本身不充当该名词性从句中具体的句子成分， 有这样用法的引导词只能是that。本题下划线处引导了information的同位语从句(为避免头重脚轻， 本句中information的同位语从句与information之间被谓语动词部分隔开)。

［解析］ 下划线处的引导词引导介词at的宾语从句， 该引导词在at的宾语从句中所包含的又一个宾语从句(充当think的宾语)里充当主语， 特指说话人的兄弟驾车的速度， 四个选项中只有关系代词型的引导词what具有这样的用法。注意： 本题中at的宾语从句中又包含一个宾语从句， 总共出现了两个宾语从句， 其中第二个宾语从句(I thought之后的宾语从句)的引导词that被省略了。

14. ____ team wins on Saturday will go through to the national championships. (2006山东)
A. No matter what B. No matter which C. Whatever D. Whichever
［答案］ D
［解析］ 下划线处引导全句的主语， 因此不能选用只能引导让步状语从句的选项A、 B； 下划线处表示“任何一支(获胜的球队)”之意， 用which的相关形式更为合适， 因此进一步排除C而选出D。
