选项
A、as well as
B、in contrast to
C、instead of
D、rather than
答案
D
解析
连词辨析题。因为整篇文章都在讲述使用手机对于人们,尤其是青少年产生的负面影响,因此,作者对于“打电话”(call)的态度应该是否定的。选项中表示否定的表达方式只有[C]instead of 和[D]rather than。instead of的用法是instead of sth.或instead of doing sth.,因此不能用在动词call的前面,而rather than后可直接加动词原形,故[D]为正确答案。[A]as well as意为“和;除……之外”,[B]in contrast to意为“和……形成对比”,排除。
