11. China Dream is a great dream ________ anyone can make a positive influence on society and contribute to our country.
A. which B. what
C. where D. when
【解析】选C。考查定语从句引导词。句意: 中国梦是一个伟大的梦, 其中每个人都可以对社会有积极的影响, 都可以对我们的祖国做出贡献。该句是一个定语从句, a great dream是先行词, 分析从句可知句子中不缺主语、宾语或表语, 所以排除掉A; B项what不能引导定语从句; a great dream在从句中作抽象的地点状语, 而不是时间状语, 故选C, where=in which。
12. My friend Jack devoted all the time he could spare ________ his blog.
A. write B. to write

14. I’m not a little tired today after giving the room a thorough cleaning and I have never had ________ today.
A. as tiring a day as B. as a tiring day
C. tiring as a day as D. day as a tiring as
【解析】选A。考查“as+形容词+a/an+单数名词+as”结构。句意: 今天我彻底打扫了房间, 之后很累, 我从来没有度过像今天这么累的一天。
【拓展延伸】
除as之外, 常用于该结构的副词还有so, too, how, 即: “so/too/how+形容词+a/an+单数名词+as”。另外, 当that用作副词, 表示“如此”时, 也可以用于该结构。例如:
This is too difficult a problem for me to work out.这道题太难, 我做不出来。
Professor Wang is so nice a person that we all respect him.

【解析】选C。考查代词。句意: 学校应该正常开设音乐课程, 因为音乐对孩子智力发展有益。benefits后面接的是定语从句, 作宾语的关系代词which或that被省略, it是定语从句的主语, 指代前面的music。本题需要分析句子结构, 否则易误选A或B。
