Question

【题目】If I were rich, I should help them out. _________，I can do nothing.

A. As is often the case B. As is it

C. As the case is often D. As it is

Answer 1

【答案】D

【解析】句意:如果我有钱的话，我会帮助他们。事实上，我无能为力。 as it is—in reality, in the situation that actually exists 事实上，实际情况是。又如：I thought I might be transferred, but as it is I shall have to look for a new job. 我以为我可能调动工作，但实际情况是我得另找工作了。as is often the case常放在主句之前，意为“……总是真的”。
