A bank is a place         they lend you an umbrella in a fair weather and ask for it back when it begins rain.

when

where

that 

there

考查定语从句。句意:银行就是一个天气好时借给你雨伞，开始下雨时再要回来的地方。A.when关系副词，做时间状语 ；  B.where关系副词，做地点状语；C.that 关系代词；D.there 那里。分析句子可知，空格处引导定语从句，关系词代替先行词 place，在从句中充当地点状语，应用关系副词where。故选B项。

We shouldn't take         for granted that we still have a lot of time before the Entrance Examination.

this

that

it

such

考查代词。句意：我们不应该想当然地认为在高考前我们还有很多时间。这里涉及了一个固定句型take it for granted that 认为.....是理所当然的，该句型中it 作形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面that引导的从句。故选C项。

The teacher was so pleased with the progress that I had        in my study this term that she sent me an English-Chinese dictionary.

made

had 

kept

graded

考查动词辨析。句意：老师对我在这学期在学习上取得的进步非常满意，寄给我一本英汉词典。分析可知hat I had        in my study this term 应是之前名词the progress的定语从句，先行词在从句中属于固定结构make progress“取得进步”的宾语。故选A项。
