3. It is the ability to do the job___ matters not where you came form or what you are .
答案:A that
解析:本句是强调句,即 the ability to do the job matters not where you came form or what you are (作工作的能力与你来自何方或你是谁没有关系),主语 the ability 带有不定式后置定语 to do the job,这里强调的是主语部分,强调句的结构是:it + 被强调部分 + that + 其他部分。
4. ___terrible weather we've had these days.
____terrible the weather has been these days.
答案:第一空 A what,第二空 B how
解析:感叹句式其实是把被强调部分提前到句首,如果改为正常语序就可以一目了然:
1) We've had (what) terrible weather these days. 其中 terrible weater 整体是名词短语,用作动词 had 的宾语,what 是形容词性,修饰名词短语。
2) the weather has been(how)terrible these days.其中 terrible 用作系动词 be 的表语,说明天气的特征,how 是副词,修是形容词 terrible。

2)答句是 She lost her new bicycle 的省略。
6. It is ___world of wonders, __ world where we can find anything changed.
