C 【解析】 句意:快点,我们还有一点时间,但我不知道该怎么办。little/a little修饰不可数名词,little表示否定,a little表示肯定;few/a few修饰可数名词,few表示否定,a few表示肯定。time为不可数名词,首先排除B,D;根据still判断,还有一点点时间,因此要用表示肯定的a little来修饰,故答案为C。Many people ask me what my favorite invention is.I find it very hard to answer them,because there are so many things in my life that I can choose.However,I have chosen a pen.Don't you think it's surprising?
