whose可以指物吗

whose可以指物吗
I saw some trees?____ leaves were black with disease.
此题应选B.容易误选A.许多考生认为,关系代词whose 和who,whom一样,只能指人,不能指物.
事实上,用作关系代词的whose与who,whom不一样,它不仅可以指人也可以指物(用作定语):
There are some students whose questions I can't answer.有些学生的问题我不能回答.
当先行词为物时,其后引导定语从句的whose +n也可换成the +n +of which/of which +the +n:
窗户破了的那座房子是空的.
正:The house whose windows are broken is empty.
正:The house the windows of which are broken is empty.
正:The house of which the windows are broken is empty.
但是如果whose所修饰的名词中心词之前有数词或其它限定词,则不用whose,而用of which:
There I saw a large table,two legs of which were broken.在那里我看见有一张大桌子,其中有两条腿断了.
