选项
答案
which — whose
解析
whose在这里作关系限定词,与effectiveness构成名词词组在关系分句里作主语。whose的先行词既可以是人,也可指物或抽象概念,如:I saw some trees whose leaveswere black with disease.当whose指具体事物或抽象概念时,能与of which结构互换使用,但前者更普遍,如:This is an idea whose origin is to be found in Green philosophy.This is an idea the origin of which is to be found in Greek philosophy.
