A. a; the B. the; the C. the; a D. a; a 答案与解析　C　句意：丹·布朗，《达·芬奇密码》的作者，是一位非常著名的美国作家。根据语境可知，第一空author后有of短语作定语，故表示的是特指，应用定冠词the；而第二空表示的是泛指，意为“一位……”，应用不定冠词a。故答案选C。 2．(2013·哈尔滨质检)________ worries me the way he keeps changing his mind. A. This B. That C. What D. It 答案与解析　D　句意：他总是改变主意的这种行为方式让我很担心。句式分析可知，it为形式主语，真正的主语为the way，“he keeps changing his mind”为定语从句，修饰the way，从句中省略了引导词in which或that。由于主语较长，为避免头重脚轻，故用it作形式主语。故答案选D。 3．(2013·北京西城区二模)J. K.

A. started B. starts C. has started D. had started 答案与解析　A　句意：J.K.Rowling在当地的一家咖啡馆里开始写《哈利·波特》的原因是那时她无钱支付家中的供暖费用。根据“because she could not afford to heat her home”可知， start这个动作发生在过去，所以应用一般过去时。故答案选A。 4．(2013·海口调研)Hurricane Sandys arrival and its effects ________ New Yorks offices being closed for three days.
