考查时态。句意：手工写下所有的邀请函要比我们预料的花去更多的时间。根据句意可知我们预料是在实际上写之前发生的，而本句中实际写花去的时间使用了过去时was，所以expect用过去完成时。故D项正确。

that

whether

what that 

that what

考查同位语从句及主语从句。句意：其中一个人认为这本书说的是对的。分析句子可知，the view后面接了一个同位语从句（     the book said was right.），从句句子成分齐全，应使用that 引导，连接词在从句中不做成分，无意义。在同位语从句中又有一个主语从句（     the book said），在主语从句中said 缺少宾语，应用what 引导，指代“......的（事情，东西）”。故选D项。

考查形容词词义辨析。句意：根据约翰逊教授的说法，如果我们不想读这本书，就不必读，因为它是可选择的。A. worthwhile值得的； B. necessary 必要的；C. optional 可选择的；D. serious 严肃的，认真的。根据“  we don't have to read the book if we don't want to”可知，这本书读不读都可以，由此可知它是“可选择的”。故选C项。

肯定的陈述句后，跟so+主语+谓语，表示强调：确实…，其主语与前陈述句的主语相同；肯定的陈述句后，跟so+谓语+主语，表示…也…，其主语与前陈述句的主语不同．根据times have changed，可知对另一个"我"说时代也已经变了，用倒装句，本句是现在完成时，含有助动词have，主语为I，在这里还用助动词have完成，故选A．
