We know our friends by their defects ______ by their merits.
A.thanB.in the place ofC.rather thanD.instead of
C
此題考查并列連詞。[A]項(xiàng)than是用來(lái)連接比較分句或詞組的;B.項(xiàng)in the place of是介詞短語(yǔ),均應(yīng)排除;[C]項(xiàng)和D.項(xiàng)都可以用來(lái)連接兩個(gè)并列的成分,instead of連接的兩個(gè)部分為取舍關(guān)系,表示單純的替代。rather than不完全表示替代,多了層個(gè)人意愿或傾向。如果在這里填入instead of,那么該句意為“我們是通過(guò)朋友的缺點(diǎn)而不是優(yōu)點(diǎn)來(lái)了解他們”,這就是單純的替代,非此即彼。而用 rather than的話(huà),該句意為“與其說(shuō)我們是通過(guò)朋友的優(yōu)點(diǎn)來(lái)了解他們不如說(shuō)是通過(guò)他們的缺點(diǎn)來(lái)了解他們”,這就意味著不完全排除優(yōu)點(diǎn),只不過(guò)他們的缺點(diǎn)更能使我們了解他們。故從整句的意義上看應(yīng)選[C]。
