是多余的；
A
< br>的时
态与主句不搭配。

idea, much preliminary activity and optimistic
discussion produced no
concrete
proposals.
(1994)
A. That

B.
I
’
d most like to visit

the
city
在从句中
作宾语，不能用
where
引导；
C<
/p>
中
mostly
表示“通常，大部分”<
/p>
，
意思不通顺；
表示
“最想”
，
用
most
like,
不是

项不合语法，因
为主句的时态是一般过去时，从句却是过去完成时
。

the personnel manager

C. what
D. it
C
，
after
在句中时介词还是连词？如果是连词，从句中的时态通常为完成体，所以
排除连词的可能性。既
然
after
是
介词，那么后面必定是宾语从句，后面的从句缺主语，只有
what
既引导宾语从句，又在宾语从
句中作主语；
BD
都不能引导宾语从句。
A
虽然可以引导宾语从句，
但不在从句中充当任何语法成分。
