85、用不定式。63.it考查代词。此空it用作形式宾语,真正的宾语是后面的不定式。64.convinced考查非谓语动词。convince意为“使某人相信”,此空表示伽利略发现使人们相信他的理论很难。people和convince之间是被动关系,因此填convinced。65.to考查介词。stick to是固定搭配,意为“坚持”。stick to ones views“坚持某人的观点”。第四部分写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节(满分15分)假定你是李华,你的英国笔友Chris写信告诉你由于他沉迷于玩手机在线游戏,学习成绩下降,而且为此和父母发生了争吵,心里很烦恼。你回信劝说他正确解决这个问题。内
