优质解答
一、这两道题都涉及到副词whereby.whereby意思是“凭借…/ 通过…”,它有下面的两种含义：
1、方式副词,例如：
Whereby shall we know her? 我们靠什么认出她呢?
Whereby will he do it? 他会如何做?
I whereby saw that he was angry. 由此我看出他生气了.
2、关系副词（= by which）,引导定语从句,例如：
We need to devise some sort of system whereby people can liaise with each other. 我们须想出一套方法,凭此大家能够互相联络.
There is no other way whereby we can cross the river. 我们没有别的办法过河.
二、搞清楚上面的用法,下面的题目就会迎刃而解.
第一题：Watermelons have been cultivated for more than 4000 years, (and whereby thumping them) to test for ripeness has an equally long history.
【选择】D、and thumping them
【解析】前面提到“西瓜已经种植了4000多年”,后面说“凭借这一点可知,拍打习惯判断成熟程度有同样长的历史”,前后是并列关系,whereby应该是方式副词,而不是关系副词.连词and 前面用逗号表示语义的转折,不用逗号表示的承接.
第二题：The name "transferware" (comes from a nineteenth-century technique for which) a pattern is engraved onto a copper roll, printed on tissue paper, and transferred onto earthware dishes.
【选择】C、comes from a nineteenth-century technique whereby
【解析】本句的结构如下：
主句：The name "transferware" comes from a nineteenth-century technique——transferware 这个名称来自十九世纪的技术
定语从句：whereby a pattern is engraved onto a copper roll, printed on tissue paper, and transferred onto earthware dishes. 借助这种技术,花样先被雕刻到铜滚上,然后印到薄纸,最后复制到陶瓷盘上.
