It was an unfortunate way to【C8】______a dedicated(献身的)career.

Your【C18】______,and the choices you【C19】______today, help build the "house" you will live in tomorrow. Therefore, build【C20】______!

选项
A、but
B、while
C、which
D、before
答案
A
解析
本题考查连词。从下文得知,老木匠的最后一座房子造得很不好,是因为他心不在焉。所以此处表示转折,应用but,注意while是并列连词,表示前后对比,而非转折。故答案为A。
