问题 But the Swiss discovered long years ago that constant warfare brought them______suffering and poverty.

选项 A、anything but
B、nothing but
C、none other than
D、no more than

答案B

解析 本题考查短语辨析。anything but意为“决不,根本不”。nothing but意为“仅仅,只不过”。none other than意为“不是别人,正是……”。no more than为more than的否定形式,意为“无非,不过,仅仅”。根据constant warfare(连年战争)和suffering and poverty(苦难和贫穷)可知,连年战争只能导致人民遭受苦难、贫穷,[B]项最相符,故为答案。句意为:但是,多年以前瑞士人就发现连年不断的战争给他们带来的只有苦难和贫穷。
