(1)whenever, wherever, however 引导让步状语从句，相当于 no matter when/where/how。

(2)whatever, whoever, whichever, whomever 既可引导名词性从句，也可引导让步状语从句，在引导让步状语从句时相当于 no matter what/who/which/whom。

(3)“no matter＋疑问词”只能引导让步状语从句，可放在主句前或主句后。

(4)however 的用法主要有以下三点需要注意：

①用做连接副词，相当于 no matter how，引导让步状语从句，意思是“不管怎样……；无论如何……”，具体结构为：

however＋形容词/副词＋主语＋谓语。例如：However rich people are, they always seem anxious to make more money.无论人们有多富裕，他们似乎总是渴望挣到更多的钱。

②用做连词，表示“不管用什么方法”。

③however 还可作“然而”讲，是副词，不能引导从句，常用逗号隔开。 

(5)whichever, whatever 在句中还可做定语。

Eat whichever cake you like.你可以吃任何一块你想吃的蛋糕。

答案：D
