个人拙见: M岛已经有近200年英国殖民地的历史了,但英语除了在管理和教育方面有使用外,在岛上并未通用. 换个句序: The English language was never really spoken on the island except in the domains of administration and teaching. 我先选了D, 但看来还是C好点. 我觉得except 在这里是prep. According to Longman, 1. except (prep) = except for (prep): used before the people or things that are not included in a statement. 2. excpet (verb): to not include something. [+from] D 的缺点在于 excepting 好象是动词进行时,意思也讲得通,但一没有in连接 domain, 二没有from,如朗文所要求的那样. |
