A land free from destruction, plus wealth, natural resources, and labor supply— all these were important factors in helping England to become the center for the Industrial Revolution.【C1】______ they were not enough.

选项
A、But
B、And
C、Besides
D、Even
答案
A
解析
本题要求根据上下文选择连接成分(连接词)。很明显,本句对上句而言,语气有所转折,因而应选A项But(但是)。B项And(和)以及C项Besides(此外)均用于表示同一意思的延续,D项Even的意思是"甚至",在本句中显然都不能用。
