高考这样考
1.People value their privacy are concerned about Google might do with the information it is gathering. (2023·天津高考)
答案与解析 who; what 句意:重视隐私的人担心谷歌可能会对其收集的信息做些什么。分析句子结构可知,第一空引导定语从句,先行词是People,指人,从句缺少主语,故用who引导定语从句;第二空引导宾语从句。宾语从句中缺少宾语,表示“谷歌可能做的事情”,所以用连接代词what引导宾语从句。

I have always dreamed of being a tourist guide, which will enable me to realize my full potential. However, my parents hope I can take up professions with a secure income and stable life like teachers or doctors. I am in a dilemma. Is it better to take a conventional career at the expense of my happiness? Or should I go against their will and pursue a career I am fond of?
What would you do if you were in my position? I hope you can give me some advice.
Yours,
Li Hua

How he wished the ground could open up and swallow him!“Mom, I’m sorry. It was not the cat; it was me ...”he stammered out the truth, ②tears of frustration and regret flowing down his cheeks (独立主格).“If so, I have to take back these chocolates,”the mother hardened her voice.“But your honesty deserves an award—a box of chocolates.”
