A．the；a B．a；a
C．a；the
D．the；the
解析： 考查冠词用法。句意：——Sally，那个问题解决了吗？——我们正在设法想个解决的办法，但很难找到一个解决的办法。第一个空特指双方都知道的那个问题用定冠词the；第二个空强调“一个方法”故用a。
答案：A
2．______we as a nation want is not words but tougher action on pollution from cars.
A．That
B．Which

答案：C
3．Kate’s ambition to become a nurse ______ from a desire to help others.

答案：C
11．It is simply for that reason ______ I won’t tell him the truth that his mother has been dead.
A．why
B．that
C．so
D．which
解析：考查强调句。强调了状语部分simply for that reason。第一个that是强调句，第二个that引导的从句是truth的同位语从句。reason后不是定语从句，此题易错选A项。
答案：B
12．Many people crowded around to see ______ with the girl lying on the ground.
A．what the matter was
B．what was the matter
C．what wrong was

答案：B
14．Why do you dislike ______ in the countryside?

答案：C
