最近做到關代魔王題，大家要不要來試試看？

  • 1. The company accountant,  -------  office is on the fourth floor, is very experienced with international tax issues.
  • (A) who  (B ) whose (C) what (D) where

‍

  • 2. Attached to this letter is a pre-addressed, stamped envelop ------- to place your application for membership to our club
  • (A) for whom (B ) in which (C) what (D) whatever.

‍

  • 3. A fine of $100 will be imposed upon any drivers ------- the car is illegally parked downtown during the holiday parade
  • (A) which (B ) whose (C) of which (D) of whom

解答如下

1. The company accountant, _______ office is on the fourth floor, is very experienced with international tax issues.

看到題目可理解大意為 「某公司的會計，對於國際稅收很有經驗。」

☆ 作答思維

題目提到會計，逗號後面是「補充說明」的作用，想要說明「他的」辦公室位置，因此答案應該選「所有格」：whose「誰的」。 答案選B

‍

2. Attached to this letter is a pre-addressed, stamped envelop -------to place your application for membership to our club

(A) for whom (B ) in which (C) what (D) whatever.

題目的意思是：「本信附有一個預先寫好地址、貼好郵票的信封，信封內可以放入給我們俱樂部的會員申請書 」

☆作答思維

題目提到envelop，後面是「修飾」的作用，想要說明「信封內」可以置放，因此答案應該選「in which」which指代的是「envelop」。 答案選B

重要觀念補充：大家超讚，這題選擇題都答對，可是這裡有個難點，大家可能有點困惑，題目怎麼會有個 in+ which + " to ? " ，這裡為什麼會加個to ? 那是因為，這裡的不定詞片語to+V，作用是一個「修飾語」的功用，我們用一個例子來解釋一下：

"It was the perfect tree under which to sit on a sunny day". 這句話大家一看可能怪怪的，我把它倒過來一下，變成

"It was the perfect tree to sit under on a sunny day."就變好理解一點，我們拆解一下這句話，它其實是兩句話所構成的

A. It was the perfect tree.

B. The tree is perfect to sit under

有了這樣的觀念之後，我們看回原題目：

Attached to this letter is a pre-addressed, stamped envelop in which to place your application for membership to our club。

A. Attached to this letter is a stamped envelop.

B. Place your application in the stamped envelop.

這樣比較好懂了，對吧~

3. A fine of $100 will be imposed upon any drivers-------the car is illegally parked downtown during the holiday parade

(A) which (B ) whose (C) of which (D) of whom

看到題目可理解大意為 「任何怎麼樣的司機，在節日期間於市中心違法停車，將被處以100美金的罰款。」

☆ 作答思維

題目提到的drivers又是一個被修飾的對象，後面的子句也是「修飾」的作用，想要說明「司機的車」違法停靠，因此答案應該選「司機的車」，發現B,C,D好像都可以，都代表「誰的」。所以答案到底是誰呢?

此時，大家要注意一下driver在主要子句裡面是扮演著受詞的角色，對象是人，of whom是指司機的車子，而which是指事物，當然不行囉，答案選D。

‍

那為什麼不能選B呢? 因為這裡放了一個any drivers------- “THE” car is illegally~

因為有了一個冠詞了，不能放入whose the car is….

簡單說，如果這句話改成這樣就對了!

A fine of $100 will be imposed upon any driver "whose car" is illegally parked downtown during the holiday parade.

一樣，這句話也是兩個句子構成的。

A. A fine of $100 will be imposed upon any drivers

B. The car of drivers is illegally parked downtown

就是這樣啦! 這樣解釋有沒有清楚呢？關代題目，通常出這麼噁心都只有考試用而已XD，說話很少會這樣講，不過也是一個很重要的觀念喔，大家想通了嗎！
