Question

It is said that Mo Yan's hometown is the place ____ has inspired him throughout his writing career．

A．in which

B．where

C．that

D．what

Answer 1

C

试题分析：考查定语从句：先行词是the place，定语从句中缺少主语，用that/which引导定语从句，句意：据说莫言的家乡是激励他写作生涯的地方。选C。
点评：定语从句的考查主要就是考查关系词的辨析，关系代词that, which, whose, whom, as， who在句中做主语，宾语，表语或者定语；where, why, when在句中做状语。要分析句子成分，看缺少什么成分，就选用相应的关系词。
