问题     Geography is the study of the relationship between people and the land. Geographers(地理学家)compare and contrast【C1】______ places on the earth. But they also go beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a【C2】______ , The world geography come from two Greek words, ge, the Greek word for "earth" and graphein,【C3】______ means "to write. " The English word geography means "to describe the earth. " Some geography books focus on a small area【C4】______ a town or city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or an【C5】______ continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another way to divide the study of【C6】______ is to distinguish between physical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the【C7】______ starts with human beings and studies how human beings and their environment act【C8】______ each other. But when geography is considered as a single subject,【C9】______ branch can neglect the other. A geographer might be described as one who observes, records, and explains the difference between places. If all places【C10】______ alike, there would be little need for geographers. We know, however, that no two places are exactly the same. Geography, then, is a point of view, a special way of looking at places.
【C4】

选项 A、outside
B、except
C、as
D、like

答案D

解析 空格中应填入一个介词,D项like是答案。like作介词时的基本意思是"像……,如……,跟……一样"。C项as作介词时的意思是"作为"。短语such as(例如)在很多时候可与介词like换用,部分选C项的考生很可能误以为as就是such as。A项outside(在……的外面)和B项except(除去……之外)的词义用在本句中显然是不合适的。
