A which; because B why; because C which; that D that; because 答案： C 试题分析：考查定语从句和表语从句：第一空是定语从句，先行词是 the reason，定语从句中 gave 缺少宾语，用 that 或 which引导定语从句，第二空是表语从句：表示 的原因是 要用句型： (one)reason(for.)is that.句意：她迟到的原因是她忘记设定
6、闹钟了。选 C。 考点：考查定语从句和表语从句 点评：定语从句的考查主要就是考查关系词的辨析，关系代词 that, which, whose, whom, as， who在句中做主语，宾语，表语或者定语； where, why, when在句中做状语。要分析句子成分，看缺少什么成分，就选用相应的关系词。连接表语从句的连接词有： that, what, who, when, where, which, why, whether, how, whoever， whomever， whichever ， whatever等。还有如 because, as if, as though等。解答这类题目，
7、关键在于分析清楚句子结构。通过判断引导词在从句中所作的成分及意义，来选择正确的引导词。 It was because he was ill _ we decided to return home. A why B that C when D where 答案： B 试题分析：考查强调句：结构是： it is /was+被强调部分 +that/who+ ，其最大的特点是把 it is/wasthat/who 去掉，句子仍然成立。强调的是原因状语：because he was ill，句意：是因为他生病了，我们才决定回家的。选 B。 考点：考查强调句 点评：强调句型在高考中每年必出，关键是要会判断
8、，平时练习时要有这个意识。 it is /was+被强调部分 +that/who+ 判断方法是去掉 it is /was that/who句子不缺成分，即为强调句型。 Laws are what keep society _ and the nation at peace.

A not to B not join C not do D not 答案： D
15、试题分析：考查不定式的省略，句意： -你可以和我们一起玩电脑游戏吗？ -谢谢，但我宁愿不玩。 Would rather后面接不带 to 的动词不定式，否定是 not do，因为前面的动词出现了，可以省略， Id rather not=Id rather not join you 选 D。 考点：考查不定式的省略 点评：为避免重复，有时可用不定式符号 to 来代替整个动词不定式 (短语 )。但是如果动词是 be动词或 have，就不能省略。 Did you remember to give Jenny th e money Yes. _ I saw her, Im sure.
