B.that

C.which

D.what參考答案：33.C考查非限制性定語從句的用法。此處先行詞是twonovels，后面是一個非限制性定語從句且介詞前置，因此用bothofwhich引導。句意：Maria寫了兩部小說，兩部都被拍成了電視劇。

略14.ltwasinDecember,2018_____ChairmanXiandPresidentTrumpmetinArgentina.A.when B.thatC.before D.since參考答案：B【詳解】考查強調句型。句意：習近平主席和特朗普總統是在2018年12月份在阿根廷會面的。分析句子結構可知此處為強調句型，其基本結構為itis+被強調部分+that+其余部分，本句強調的是時間狀語inDecember,2018，故B項正確。15.Chinaunderstandsthesituationandneedsofunderdevelopedcountriesontheissueofclimatechangeandurgesdevelopedcountriestosupportthem______technologyandfinance.
