由于主句用的是现在时,为保持一致从句也应用现在时,故选项C为正确答案。
42.When you have finished with that video tape, don't forget to put it in my drawer,___?A. do youB. will youC. don't youD. won't you[参考译文]看完那盘录像带后,别忘了把它放到我的抽屉里,好吗?[详细解答]如果一个句子的前半句为祈使句,祈使句后面的附加疑问句常用will you或won't you,而不用助动词形式do you或don't you。
由于此句中祈使句是否定形式,附加疑问句应是肯定,故用will you。
43. He left orders that nothing___touched until the police arrived here.A. should beB. ought to beC. must beD. would be[参考译文]他留下命令,在警察到来之前,不得碰任何东西。
[详细解答]当that从句充当order,command等表示说话人的强烈要求、建议、命令的名词性从句(宾语从句或同位语从句)时,从句谓语应用―should+动词原形‖或只用动词原形。
故此题应为选A。

[详细解答]that一般不引导非限制性定语从句,which与it重复,故答案只能选C。
46. ___,he is ready to accept suggestions from different sources.A.Instead of his contributionsB.For all his notable contributionsC.His making notable contributionsD.However his notable contributions[参考译文]尽管他作出了令人瞩目的贡献,但还是乐于接受来自不同方面的意见。
[详细解答]for all常用来引导让步性短语,表示―尽管...,虽然...‖。
由于介词短语作让步状语可放于句首,故选项B为正确答案。
47.The team can handle whatever___.A.that needs handlingB.which needs handlingC.it needs handlingD.needs to be handled [参考译文]该小组能处理一切需要处理的事情。
[详细解答]whatever为关系代词,相当于anything what,引导宾语从句作动词―handle‖的宾语,同时whatever又在从句中作主语,故that,which或it都是多余的,只有选项D由实义动词need加不定式的被动式构成,表被动,符合语法及句意。
48. Come and see me whenever___.A.you are convenientB.you will be convenientC.it is convenient to youD.it will be convenient to you[参考译文]方便时就来看我。
[详细解答]whenever引导的时间状语从句,用一般现在时表将来;同时表示―你方便时‖英语中说when it is convenient to you,而不是when you are convenient。
故选项C为正确答案。
49.It was a physician that he represented himself, and___he was warmly received.A.as suchB.such asC.as thatD.so that[参考译文]他称自己为一名医生,而且作为一名医生他颇受欢迎。
[详细解答]as such意为―就以这种身份(或资格),作为这样的(人或物),照此‖;such as 意为―像...那样的;例如‖;so that意为―以便,为了‖;没有as that这种搭配。
根据句意,选项A为正确答案。

[详细解答]city后面跟一个定语从句,起限定作用,意思是―我最想去参观的城市‖,引导从句的关系词在从句中作visit的宾语,故只能选B或C。
而C项中的mostly为副词,意为―主要地,大部分‖,用在此处不合题意;B项省略了充当visit宾语的关系词which,为正确答案。
51.I was to have made a speech if___.A.I was not called awayB.nobody would have called me awayC.I had not been called awayD.nobody called me away[参考译文]要不是被人叫走,我就会发言的。
[详细解答]本题主句中的was/were to have done表示―本来要做成某事的(结果却未做成)‖,表示与过去事实相反,if从句中应用had done构成的虚拟语气与之相配。
故选项C为正确答案。

在这四个选项中,只有what既可以引导从句,也可以作主语。
