单选题
Just as the builder is skilled in the handling of his bricks, ______ the experienced writer is skilled in the handling of his words. A. as B. thus C. so D. like
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[解析] 引导方式状语从句的连词just as有时可放在句首,主句前常加so与之呼应,构成固定搭配,以加强语气,而且主句也可以倒装,意为“正如……,……也一样”,例如:Just as food is to man, so manure is to crops. 正如人需要食物一样,庄稼也需要养料。Just as air is to man, so is water to fish. 空气之于人,犹如水之于鱼。Just as fire tries gold, so does adversity try virtue. 烈火炼真金,逆境验美德。而just as...as表示“和……一样”,例如:He is just as clever as any other boy. 他完全和其他男孩一样聪明。thus只用作副词,意为“如此,这样,因而,从而”,like用作介词,意为“像……”,它们都不用来引导句子。例如:We have run out of oil. Thus, we should turn to other forms of energy. 我们已用尽了石油,因此,需要转向其他能源。It looks like gold. 这东西看起来像是金子。
