8．______difficult it might be，I will try my best to work it out．（ ）| A． | Whatever | B． | How | C． | However | D． | What |
分析 无论多么困难，我都会尽力把它解决．
解答 答案是C．本题考查让步状语从句中连词的选择．首先排除B和D，what 和how 通常引导的是名词性从句，不需要逗号与主句分开；根据句意和结构判断，本题需要的是引导让步状语从句的连词；whatever无论什么，是形容词性质的连词，常常做定语，而however无论如何，是副词性质的，常常做状语；本题中需要的是修饰形容词difficult的副词however，故答案选择C．
点评 关于让步状语从句的考查，首先理解各连词的含义和基本用法，积累让步状语从句中的特殊用法，最后结合语境合理判断．
