publicworriedabout______isontheirtables.A．what;thatB．which;thatC．that;whichD．that;what答案：D解析：試題分析：第一個(gè)空為so…that句型“如此。。以至于”，第二個(gè)空是考查介詞后的賓語(yǔ)從句，通過(guò)分析可知從句中少主語(yǔ)，that不引導(dǎo)介詞后的賓語(yǔ)從句，which得有選擇范圍，故選what。句意：飲食在中國(guó)如此重要以至于我們有“飲食文化”這個(gè)術(shù)語(yǔ)。但是最近的報(bào)道卻讓公眾們擔(dān)心起了飯桌上的東西。所以D選項(xiàng)正確。2.Theoldmanwho
