(1分)A、of;fromB、of;ofC、from;ofD、from;from正确答案选项：参考答案：C解析句意:纸是由木头制成的，桌子也是由木头制成的。根据句意理解可知，这里表达“由……制成”，英语是bemadeof/from，两者区别在于:bemadeof可以看出原材料，bemadefrom看不出原材料，而纸是由木头制成的，看不出原材料，所以要用bemadefrom，桌子是由木头制成的，是可以看出原材料的，所以用bemadeof，故选C。42、材料It'softensaidthatyoucanjudgeapersonbylookingatwhat'sontheirbookshelves.Well,whenIaskedmyselfthisquestionafewyearsago,Imadea(n)（1）discovery.Prettymuchallthe（2）onmybookshelveswerewrittenbyBritishauthors,andtherewasalmostnothingintranslationfromother（3）.Whatashame!So,Idecidedtolaunchmy（4）readingproject.
