Ⅱ.单项填空
1．His movie won several awards at the film festival，________ was beyond his wildest dream.
A．which　　　　　　　 B．that
C．where D．it
解析：选A　考查定语从句。which引导非限制性定语从句，并在从句中作主语。在非限制性定语从句中，只能用which引导而不能用that引导。where引导定语从句时，指代表示地点的名词，在从句中作状语。it不能用于引导定语从句，所以D项是错误的。
2．________ is clear that improvements in health care will lead to a stronger, more prosperous economy.

A．what B．that
C．how D．as
解析：选D　考查定语从句。as引导定语从句，在从句中作remember的宾语。what用于引导名词性从句，在从句中作主语、宾语或表语；that引导限制性定语从句；how引导名词性从句，意为“如何”。
