单项选择题
The fire brigade arrived two hours later after the alarm was sounded,______it was too late to save much of the building.
A.then
B.when
C.which
D.though
答案
参考答案:B
解析:题中要求填进一个具有连接作用的词,将前后两个句子连起来,所以首先排除then;分析前后两个句子之间的关系得知,though也是不对的,因为此处显然不是转折关系;which, when引导非限制性定语从句,故接下来关键是要找出哪个词是先行词,很明显是two hours later,所以应该选when,表示时间“这时”。
