8. The crossfire between the committee members and the Pentagon representatives, which had been called in to explain the defense strategy, ____ sharp.A. wasB. wereC. areD. is参考答案:ATIP:考查主谓一致。
此句中crossfire是主语,“between the committee members and the Pentagon representatives, which had been called in to explain the defense strategy”是主语的修饰语,因此谓语动词应该用单数形式。
从“which had been called …”得知,句子的基本时态是过去时,所以选A。
9. California has more light than it knows _____ to do with but everything else is expensive.A. whatB. howC. whichD. where参考答案:ATIP:考查动词不定式。
本句中的but连接两个并列句。
在前半句修饰light的定语从句内部,“疑问词(what)+不定式(to do with)”构成动词know的宾语。
what可以看成do的宾语,理解为“know what to do with (the light)”,因此选A。
