The icy conditions made our travel dangerous. So _____ going by car we took the underground.
A. instead of
B. in addition to
C. as well as
D. at the cost of
题目解答
答案
A. instead of
解析
本题考查介词短语的辨析，核心在于理解句子中动作的替代关系。题目中因“icy conditions”导致“travel dangerous”，因此选择的交通方式与原计划形成对比，需选择表示替代的短语。
选项分析
- A. instead of：表示“代替”，符合题干中“放弃开车改乘地铁”的替代关系。
- B. in addition to：表示“除了…还”，强调补充，但题干未体现同时使用两种方式。
- C. as well as：表示“和…一起”，与题意的“改换方式”不符。
- D. at the cost of：表示“以…为代价”，与语境无关。
