[翻译]黑人教师给其他所有爱好和平的人树立了一个好榜样。[解析] D 解析：set an example to表示给某人树榜样，由此可以排除B;因先行词指人，故使用who引导非限定性定语从句，由此可以排除C; 根据时态的一致原则可知，此处应当使用一般过去时，故正确答案为D项。

Really? You        twice the price to buy the book!

paid

took

spent

cost

考查动词词义辨析。句意：真的吗？你付了2倍的价格买这本书！四个动词都有“花费”的意思，但用法不同。pay的主语通常是人，常用结构是 sb pay (money) for sth;take作“花费”时讲常用于固定句型 It takes/took sb (money/time)to do sth做某事花费某人（金钱/时间）；spend的主语通常是人 sb spend...on sth 或sb spend ...(in) doing sth;cost的主语通常是物，sth cost sb (money)意为“某物花了某人多少钱。本题主语是人，结合句意和后文to buy the book，空格处应填pay。故选A项。

— Father, you promised!

—Well,____．But it was you who didn't keep your word first．

so was I 

so did I 

so I was 

so I did

考查部分倒装“So + be/情态动词/助动词 + 主语”与表强调的“So + 主语 + be/情态动词/助动词”区别。根据语境“you promised（你许诺过）”和答语“But it was …”可知爸爸回答“我的确许诺过”，且promised是过去时，所以表强调要用助动词did,故选D。句意：——爸爸，你许诺过。——好啦，我的确许诺过。但是是你先没有遵守诺言。

which; that

what; which

that; who

that; which
