问题     Millions of Americans and foreigners see G.I. Joe as a mindless war toy, the symbol of American military adventurism, but that’s not how it used to be. To the men and women who【C1】________in World War Ⅱ and the people they liberated, the G.I. was the【C2】________man grown into hero, the poor farm kid torn away from his home, the guy who【C3】________all the burdens of battle, who slept in cold foxholes, who went without the【C4】________of food and shelter, who stuck it out and drove back the Nazi reign of murder. This was not a volunteer soldier, not someone well paid,【C5】________an average guy, up【C6】________the best trained, best equipped, fiercest, most brutal enemies seen in centuries.
    His name isn’t much. G.I. is just a military abbreviation【C7】________Government Issue, and it was on all of the articles【C8】________to soldiers. And Joe? A common name for a guy who never【C9】________it to the top. Joe Blow, Joe Palooka. Joe Magrac… a working class name. The United States has【C10】________had a president or vice-president or secretary of state Joe.
    G.I. Joe had a【C11】________career fighting German, Japanese, and Korean troops. He appears as a character, or a【C12】________of American personalities, in the 1945 movie The Story of G.I. Joe, based on the last days of war correspondent Ernie Pyle. Some of the soldiers Pyle【C13】________portrayed themselves in the film. Pyle was famous for covering the【C14】________side of the war, writing about the dirt-snow-and-mud soldiers, not how many miles were【C15】________or what towns were captured or liberated. His reports【C16】________ the "Willie" cartoons of famed Stars and Stripes artist Bill Maulden. Both men【C17】________the dirt and exhaustion of war, the【C18】________of civilization that the soldiers shared with each other and the civilians: coffee, tobacco, whiskey, shelter, sleep.【C19】________Egypt, France, and a dozen more countries, G.I. Joe was any American soldier,【C20】________the most important person in their lives.
【C20】
选项 A、on the contrary
B、by this means
C、from the outset
D、at that point
答案D
解析 本填空之后的短语the most important person in their lives是之前的信息any American soldier的同位语，即对any American soldier进行补充说明，从前后两者的关系上判断，只有选项D项at that point(在这一点上)最合适，因为at that point是表示范围的状语，符合前后的关系，即在这个范围内，any American soldier是the most important person in their lives，这个说法是解释得通的。A项on the contrary(相反地)所表达的逻辑关系不正确，any American soldier与同位语the most important person in their lives之间不是相反矛盾的意思。B项by this means(以这种方式)是表示方式的状语，而C项from the outset(从一开始)是表示时间的状语，均不符合any American soldier与同位语the most important person in their lives之间的关系，因为这两者之间不可能在方式上或者时间上构成同位语的关系。
