116. Mauritius was a British colony for almost 200 years,excepting for the domains of administration andteaching, the English language was never really spoken on the island.
?? (A) excepting for
?? (B) except in
?? (C) but except in
?? (D) but excepting for
?? (E) with the exception of

我选的是D，答案是C。我觉得“excepting”可以修饰主语Mauritius，如果选C的话，句子不就有很多谓语了吗？“was”、“expect”、以及英语后面的“was”不也是主语了吗？

61.Rivaling the pyramids of Egypt or even the ancient cities of the Maya as an achievement, the army of terra-cotta warriors created to protect Qin Shi Huang, China’s first emperor, in his afterlife is more than 2,000 years old and took 700,000 artisans more than 36 years to complete.
?? (B) Qin Shi Huang, China’s first emperor, was protected in his afterlife by an army of terracotta warriors that was created more than 2,000 years ago by 700,000 artisans who took more than 36 years to complete it
?? (C) it took 700,000 artisans more than 36 years to create an army of terra-cotta warriors more than 2,000 years ago that would protect Qin Shi Huang, China’s first emperor, in his afterlife
?? (D) more than 2,000 years ago, 700,000 artisans worked more than 36 years to create an army of terra-cotta warriors to protect Qin Shi Huang, China’s first emperor, in his afterlife
?? (E) more than 36 years were needed to complete the army of terracotta warriors that 700,000 artisans created 2,000 years ago to protect Qin Shi Huang, China’s first emperor, in his afterlife

这题答案是A，为什么不能选B呢，而且句子好长，求牛人帮我分析下句子结构和句子意思。感激不尽！

116
(C) 正确。这里的in并不是与except连用，而是in the domains of. 意思是，排除这一领域….
(D) excepting常用于否定句中，excepting是动词ing的形式，那么逻辑主语是language, 逻辑错误。

prep上的注解挺清楚地~

刚被except的用法废了一小时，说下我的理解，方便后人查阅。
1.except可作动词，介词，连词。
2.except that后接句子是作连词用。She is a good teacher except that she speaks too fast。
3.except作介词用，而且有种用法，2个介词连用·We go to bed before 10, except in the summer.这种连用很常见，不要认为语法上有问题。
回归本题：
1.excepting自然表动词ing，逻辑主语language对不上。
2.domain领土用介词in符合逻辑意思，except作介词连接介词短语in the domain of

既然except有连词词性，为什么B 不对，难道是只有用but能表达对比吗？
