dwhat解析：选d。考查名词性从句。分析句式结构可知，本题题干是it作形式主语的结构，真正的主语应为_ the president can do to end the strike，而该部分中没有出现及物动词do的宾语，所以空格处既要引导主语从句，又要在主语从句中作do的宾语，选项中只有what符合句式需要。题干中的关键信息是及物动词do。句意：总统能做什么事情来结束罢工这一点儿都不清楚。本题易误选c项，如果选择c项的话，do就没有宾语了，所以不正确。a项的how在句中要作为状语使用；b项的which在引导名词性从句时必须有明确的修饰范围，且多用作定语。13(2013四川重点中学联考)i have finished _ healthcare course and learned many tips on _ good health.a/；/ bthe；theca；/ da；a解析：选c。句意：我已经学完了一门保健课程并了解到了很多有关保持健康的窍门。第一空course是可数名词，在本句中表泛指，表示“一门保健课程”，故用不定冠词；而第二空health是不可数名词，且表示泛指，故用零冠词。14the young_for growing independence while the elder want their son or daughter to
