It still remains a question _____ life exists on any other planet in the solar system.
A.whyB.whether C.howD.where
B

试题分析:考查主语从句。本题中的it是形式主语,真正的主语从句是后面的whether life exists on any other planet in the solar system. 句意:在太阳系里的其它星球上是否存在着生命这件事情仍然是一个问题。根据句意说明本题的主语从句表示的是疑问的句意。ACD的语义和句意不符。故B正确。
点评:在句中作主语的名词性从句称为主语从句,主语从句所对应的谓语动词通常用第三人称单数的形式。为了整个句子的平衡,主语从句经常后置,并用it充当形式主语(此时, that引导的主语从句若不放在句首,可以省略引导词that)。解答这类题目,关键在于分析清楚句子结构。通过判断引导词在从句中所作的成分及意义,来选择正确的引导词。
