问题    Had Dr. Johnson written his own life, in conform with the opinion【S1】________
which he has given, that every man’s life may be best written by
himself；had he employed in the preservation of his own history, that
clearness of narration and elegance of language in which he has
embalmed so many eminent persons, the world would probably have the【S2】________
most perfect example of biography that was ever exhibited. But although
he at different times, in a desultory manner, committed to write many【S3】________
particulars of the progress of his mind and fortunes, he never had
persevering diligence enough to form them into the regular composition. 【S4】________
Of these memorials a few have been preserved；but the great part was【S5】________
consigned by him to the flames, a few days before his death.
    As I had the honour of enjoying his friendship for twenty years；as
I had the scheme of writing his life constant in view；as he was well【S6】________
apprised by this circumstance, and from time to time obligingly satisfied【S7】________
my enquiries, by communicating to me the incidents of his early years；
as I acquired a facility in recollecting, and was very assiduous in
recording, his conversation, of what the extraordinary vigour and【S8】________
vivacity constituted one of the first features of his character；and as I
have spared many pains in obtaining materials concerning him, from【S9】________
every quarter where I could discover that they were to be found, and
have been favoured with the most liberal communications by his friends；
I flatter myself that few biographers have entered into upon such a work【S10】________
as this, with more advantages；independent of literary abilities, in
which I am not vain enough to compare myself with some great names
who have gone before me in this kind of writing.  
【S8】

答案what—which
解析 定语从句引导词误用。此处意为“因为我能够回忆并一丝不苟地记录他的谈话，在他的谈话中展示的活力和生气也构成了他性格中最重要的特点”。第二个逗号之后的部分为定语从句，先行词为conversation，定语从句引导词作介词的宾语，故将引导词改为which。
