Question

There was never any time for Kate to feel lonely, _____ she was an only child. A. ever since　 B. now that　 C. even though　 D. even as

 

Answer 1

C

 

本题考查从句连词的意义和用法。ever since意思是“自从……以来”，需和现在完成时连用；now that的意思是“既然，由于”；even as意思为“恰如，正当……的时候”，均不合题意。只有even though填上句意才通顺又合乎语法。句意为：尽管凯特只是个孩子，她从来没觉得孤独。
