第35題【單選題】

Thatisthehouseyoucanenjoythescenery.

A、inthat

B、that

C、which

D、fromwhich

【正確答案】D

【答案解析】句意：你從中能欣賞外面風(fēng)景的就是這座房子。在定語從句中判斷

用關(guān)系代詞還是用關(guān)系副詞，需要弄明白在從句中需要什么語法成分，也就是說,

要看關(guān)系詞在定語從句中擔(dān)任什么成分，本題的定語從句中少地點(diǎn)狀語，先行詞

又是表地點(diǎn)的名詞，故可選用where。觀察四個(gè)選項(xiàng)后，我們發(fā)現(xiàn)并無where一

詞，我們可以用"介詞+which"來代替。注意，本句話所表達(dá)的應(yīng)該是:Youcanenjoy

thesceneryfromthehouse,故可排除A選項(xiàng)，選D。
