本期重點：代詞
代詞主要考查其與所指代的名詞是否一致;其次就是考查代詞的混淆，例如作形式主語的話，要使用it，而that沒有這個功能。
考點例析：
例1：The new houses, typically it the suburbs, were
often small and more or less identical, but it satisfied S9.________
a deep need.
解析：此處的代詞指代的是前面的new houses，所以應該把it改為they.
例2：During the 1980s’ culture wars, school systems
across the country pulled some books from
library shelves because its content was deemed by 70._________
parents and teachers to be inappropriate.
解析：content前面的物主代詞對應的是上一句的some books，所以應該用復數形式的物主代詞their。
例3：Traditionally, the American farmer has always been independent
and hard-working. In the eighteenth century farmers were quite
self-sufficient. The farm family grew and made almost nothing it S1._______
needed. The surplus crop would be sold to buy a few items in the
local general store.
解析：上一句說“在18世紀農民是自給自足的”，那么接下去應該是“農民生產自己生活的一切東西”才符合邏輯，所以應該將nothing改成everything.
