Violin makers and scientists try to make 【22】______ like the old Italian violins. 【23】______ they aren’t the same. Musicians prefer the old ones. No one really knows 【24】______ these old Italian violins are so special, 【25】______ many people think they have an answer.
Some people think it is the age of the violins. But not all old violins sound wonderful. Only the old violins from Cremona are 【26】______ .
Other people think that the 【27】______ to those violins is the wood. The wood of the violin is very important. It must be from certain kinds of trees. It 【28】______ too young or too old. Perhaps the violin makers of Cremona knew 【29】______ special about wood for violins.
But the kind of wood may not be 【30】______ important. 【31】______ may be more important to cut the wood in a special way. Wood for a violin must be cut very carefully. It was to be the right size and 【32】______ . The smallest difference will change the sound of the violin. Musicians 【33】______ think that this was the secret of the Italians. 【34】______ they understood more than we do about how to cut the wood.
Size and shape may not be the answer 【35】______ Scientists measured these old violins very care- fully. They can make new ones that are exactly the same size and shape.

选项
A、Yet
B、Hence
C、Thus
D、Besides
答案
A
解析
通过上下文可以发现,此处应该选一个表示转折关系的连词。“提琴制作者及科学家试着制作一些像古意大利的提琴一样的小提琴,但是这些提琴还是不如古琴一样好,音乐家更喜欢古琴。”Hence 表示“因此”是一个副词。Thus 是副词,表示“如此”。而 Besides 是一个介词,表示“除……之外”。
