The most important promises we must keep are          we make to ourselves.

ones

those

these

them

考查代词。句意：我们必须遵守的最重要的承诺就是我们对自己做出的承诺。A. ones泛指上文提到的可数名词复数；B. those特指上文提到的可数名词复数；C. these这些；D.them他们。分析句子可知，为we must 是定语从句，修饰The most important promises，是句子的主语；be动词后缺少表演，we make to ourselves是定语从句，修饰空格处。根据句意，此处指上文提到的promises,由定语从句修饰表示特指，故用 those。故选B项。

them

考查代词。句意：一项研究表明，参加课外活动的学生比不参加课外活动的学生更开心。空格处代词与the students是对应关系，可以用the ones 或者those替代。“them”指代前面提到的复数名词，不能与the students形成对应关系，“these”一般不用定语从句修饰。故选B项。

are

is

were
