one

that

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。

Her father         a writer.

turned

grew

has turned

has become

考查系动词的区别。句意：她的父亲变成了一位作家。Turn，grow，become用作系动词均可表示“变化”，使用时要注意：become主要指一个人暂时性的身心变化或永久性的自然变化，另外还可用于指天气变化和社会的趋势；grow主要表示逐渐变化，强度变化过程；turn后接名词，往往表示意想不到的变化，名词前通常不加冠词。故选D项。
