It’s a concern that pro-immigration advocates say they share—and that a new controversy over foreign student labor at McDonald’s has【C3】______ the spotlight.
    McDonald’s is under fire for allegedly exploiting foreign students whom the company brought to the United States on three-month J-l visas, which are intended to foster cross-cultural exchanges for international youth to【C4】______ life in this country.

选项
答案 I
解析 空格处需要连接词连接前后两个句子，这个连接词有可能是连词或关系代词。空格后为主干完整的句子，可见连接词在该句中不充当任何成分，故应填连词。句中such cases指代上一段“外国学生工资低于最低工资标准，居住条件差，受雇主威胁终止合约和驱逐出境”的例子，而这样的例子刚好证明了空格后“雇主只想强迫更多的工人在低于标准的条件下工作”的事实，因此可判断空格后的从句是proof的同位语，空格处应填that。
