①解析：選B?？疾楣潭ù钆?。awidevarietyof...意為“跨度極廣的；多種多樣的”。

重點(diǎn)句型
8.Whicheverandwhateveryoulike,thereisathemeparkforyou!無論你喜歡哪一個(gè)，不管你喜歡什么，都會(huì)有一個(gè)適合你的主題公園！
whichever不管哪一個(gè)；任何一個(gè)。可以引導(dǎo)名詞性從句，也可以引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句。
Whicheverdictionaryyouwanttobuy,I’llpayforit.
無論你想買哪本詞典，我都愿意付款。(引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句)
Youcanchoosewhicheveryouwant.
你想要哪一個(gè)，就挑選哪一個(gè)。
易混辨析
whichever/whatever
這兩個(gè)詞的意思不同，whichever意為“無論哪個(gè)；無論哪些”；whatever意為“無論什么；凡是……的事物”。
whichever/which
whichever可以引導(dǎo)名詞性從句或讓步狀語從句，which是個(gè)疑問詞；用在疑問句中，或作關(guān)系代詞，引導(dǎo)定語從句。
nomatterwhich/whichever
nomatterwhich只能引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句；而whichever可引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句和名詞從句。nomatterwhich可以用whichever代替，但兩個(gè)同時(shí)出現(xiàn)在選項(xiàng)中時(shí)，必須選whichever。

②ThesewildflowersaresospecialthatIwould
doIcantosavethem.
（2009?12?河北石家莊檢測）
A.whateverB.that
C.whichD.whichever
①解析：選C。介詞at后跟的是賓語從句，故可先排除D項(xiàng)，因?yàn)閚omatterwhich只可引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句。也可排除A項(xiàng),which是疑問代詞，用于陳述句中不合適。句意為：哪個(gè)飯館有空桌我們就在哪兒吃吧。根據(jù)句意可知，選C。
②解析：選A。考查關(guān)聯(lián)詞引導(dǎo)賓語從句時(shí)的用法差異。that引導(dǎo)賓語從句時(shí)，只起連接作用，在從句中不充當(dāng)任何成分。whichever意為“無論哪個(gè)”；whatever意為“無論什么”。根據(jù)句意可知，選A。
9.EveryareaoftheparkismodelledafterlifeinthedaysofKingArthurandknightsoftheRoundTable.
園內(nèi)所有景區(qū)都是按照亞瑟王和圓桌騎士生活的時(shí)代復(fù)制的。
