解析试题分析:句意:令我们吃惊的是汤姆对于他来说以前的英语是很烦人的,而现在他的英语讲地如此流利好像他是在说本名族的语言的人。第一空缺少主语从句的主语,故排除C;第二空是作介词的宾语,先行词是Tom,故用whom。故选D。
考点:考查主语从句及定语从句的用法。
点评:本题较难。主语从句及定语从句是高考的常考的知识点,把两者结合起来考查更增加了试题的难度,需要考生能够分析复杂的句子结构又能正确理解句子的语境。
即学即练:_____has already been pointed out, English is rather difficult for a foreigner.A. As B. What C. It D. Whom
解析:A。句意:正如已经指出的那样,英语对于初学者说,是相当难学的。
