答案:A
解析:句意“鮑勃,你認(rèn)為教學(xué)這樣的工作怎么樣?”“我覺得它既有趣又具有挑戰(zhàn)性。教學(xué)工作是一份嚴(yán)肅且有趣的工作”。先行詞是a job,把先行詞代入定語從句后為:… in the job you are doing something serious but interesting.由此可見,先行詞job在定語從句中作in的賓語,in the job在定語從句中作狀語,故用關(guān)系副詞,排除B、D兩項(xiàng);job不表時(shí)間,故排除when。

18.(2008陜西) The man pulled out a gold watch, __________ were made of small diamonds.
A. the hands of whom B. whom the hands of C. which the hands of D. the hands of which
