It ________ at the crossroads ________ he was killed in the accident the other day.
| A．is; that | B．was; that | C．is; where | D．was; where |
B
解析试题分析：考查强调句：结构是It is/was+强调部分+that/强调人也可以用who，强调的是at the crossroads，因为 时间是the other day几天前，所以用was，句意：几天前他就是在这个十字路口在车祸中丧生的。选B。
考点：考查强调句型
点评: 强调句型：it is/was+被强调成分+that/who其它成分。强调句型最大的特点就是去掉it is/was…that/who…句子仍然成立。不能和it做形式主语的句型混起来。
This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers from all over the world will spend about ten months in US homes through an exchange program. They will attend US schools ,meet US teenagers, and form impressions of the real American teenagers . American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.

Mr. Brown worked in a factory of a small town. He had been there for twenty years before one day he was sent to the capital for important business. He was quite excited because he had never been there before. Before he set off, he asked his wife and three daughters if they wanted him to buy something for them in Lon-don. Mrs. Brown began to think it over and then she said she wished her husband would be able to buy a nice umbrella for her, and so did their three daughters. As he was afraid he would forget it, he drew an umbrella on his hand. To his regret, he lost it at the station.
On the train Mr. Brown sat opposite to an old woman. The woman’s umbrella was so nice that he carefully looked at it and said to himself not to forget to buy a few umbrellas like it.

Getting your children to study can be a little like getting them to eat their vegetables.
71 Make a study time and have it at the same time every day. This will help your kids to learn to schedule their day and will give them a sense of control over how they spend their time.
Allow them to study in blocks of time, such as for half an hour with a five-minute break in the middle. 72 Ideal （理想的）study times are after dinner or right after school before dinner.
Never allow your children to study in front of the television, as that will encourage passive activity. 73

74 Make sure there is a table or a desk and a comfortable chair.
75 This includes helping them out with their homework sometimes and being there for them with the answers to any questions. The input you give your children during study periods will help form a bond and help make studying enjoyable.
