Question

------by the end of this year,China's state and provincial libraries will be free the public.
-------that's ______good news for those who often go to these places.
A.a B.the C./
.这个我感觉明明是B.因为特指上面说的那个新闻.

Answer 1

首先肯定选C,news是不可数名词.为啥不选B呢?因为意义上不通顺,the good news是这条消息的意思,而这句话中只需要说：那对于常去这些地方的人来说是（好消息）,而不能说：那对于常去这些地方的人来说是（这个/那个好消息）.
the是表示特指这个,那个,这些,哪些.此题根本需要特指,故不选B.
再如：不可数前加the和不能加the的例子：
1.He drank the water and got ill.他喝下（这些水the water),就生病了.
2.He drank water and got ill.他喝下水就生病了.
看出区别了吧?
