单项选择题
Most of us think of sharks as dangerous, owing to lack of information rather than fear.
A.due to
B.because
C.as
D.for
答案
参考答案:A
解析:近义词辨析。这几个词均有“因为”之意,但短语owing to和due to,because of常用来引出简短的原因;而because常用来引导原因状语从句;as和for做连词时,常用作书面语,起解释主句的作用,如:As this problem is of great interest,we will discuss it once again.因为这个问题很有意义,所以我们决定再讨论一次。He was rewarded for his bravery.他由于勇敢而受到嘉奖。所以答案为A。
