选项
A、beyond
B、after
C、behind
D、besides
答案
A
解析
语义衔接题。该空格之前是in this century and,而空格之后并无其他词汇,由此可知该空格所填入词汇应与之前的时间"本世纪"并列,同为表示时间的概念;而且其后没有关联词,所以又可推知空格中应填入副词,选项中beyond可做副词,意为"later than",故为答案。选项中after,besides就词义而言,显然不符合此处的语境。虽然behind也有"之后"的含义,而且同样也可用做副词,但它多用于表示地理方位的后面(如:The dog was running behind.)或是表示抽象意义的落后(如:Kathy was tired and fell behind)。
