C．a(chǎn), 不填

D．不填, the

Answer 1

C

試題分析：句意:那個人考欺騙群眾為生最終走進了監(jiān)獄。這里是固定短語make a living by doing靠做什么而謀生；in prison指在服刑；in the prison在監(jiān)獄里。根據(jù)句意故選C。
點評：本題難度適中。冠詞是高考必考的內(nèi)容，它不僅在單選還在完形和短文改錯中經(jīng)常要考的考點，提醒考生要掌握它們的用法及區(qū)別。這里是兩個固定短語中的冠詞的用法。
即學即練：Many people have come to realize that they should go on_____balanced diet and make_____room in their day for exercise.
　A. a; /              B. the; a            C. the; the                D. /; a
解析：A。a balanced diet泛指“一種平衡的飲食”；make room為固定搭配，意為“騰出空間”。
