Question

【题目】It's hot this summer. ________, it was ________ hotter last summer.
A.However; very
B.Although; very
C.However, even
D.Although; even

Answer 1

【答案】C
【解析】本题考查however的用法。however的含义为“然而”，常与后句用逗号隔开。although的含义为“虽然”，后跟让步状语从句，不用逗号隔开，由此可排除B项和D项,even/much/a lot等词可修饰形容词或副词的比较级，但very不能。因此C项正确。句意：今年夏天太热了，然而，去年夏天更热。
