问题 The United States gained its independence from England by revolution, ______ Australia was granted its independence without having to go to war.

选项 A、whereas
B、on the other hand
C、while
D、meanwhile

答案A

解析 此题考查考生对相近意义的衔接词用法的掌握。whereas表示对比(by revolution与without having to go to war),比较正式;while和on the other hand也表示对比,但while多用于句首,即便用在两句之间也很少用逗号;on the other hand是一个短语,不是连词,不能连接句子,如果另起一句,在语法上还说得通;meanwhile意为"与此同时",显然逻辑意义上不对。
