一、初中英语名词性从句
1．_________ is known to all is that the earth is smaller than the sun.
A. As B. What C. It D. Which 【答案】 B
【解析】【分析】句意：众所周知，地球比太阳还小。复合句的主语是一个名词性从句，从句没有引导词和主语，表示“所……的（事）”，故用what引导，其双重作用，故选B。 【点评】考查名词性从句，本题涉及what引导的主语从句。
2．Located between the 16th and the 18th floor, ______ I call my “home” is more like a “bird's nest”.
A. which B. that C. what D. where 【答案】 C
【解析】【分析】考查主语从句。What引导主语从句______ I call my “home”且 What在从句中充当call的宾语。故选C。

A. focused; whether B. focused; if C. has focused; whether D. has focused; if 【答案】 C
