An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer of his plans to【C1】______the house-building business to live a more【C2】______life with his wife and enjoy his【C3】______family. He would miss the paycheck(工资)each week, but he wanted to retire. They could【C4】______The employer was【C5】______to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes,【C6】______over time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He used bad workmanship and【C7】______materials. It was an unfortunate way to【C8】______a dedicated(献身的)career.
When the carpenter finished his work, his employer came to【C9】______the house. Then he handed the front-door【C10】______to the carpenter and said, "This is your house—my【C11】______to you." The carpenter was shocked! What a【C12】______!If he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently.
【C13】______it is with us. We build our lives, a day at a time, often putting【C14】______than our best into the building. Then, with a shock, we【C15】______we have to live in the house we have built. If we could do it【C16】______, we would do it much differently.
But, you cannot go back. You are the carpenter, and every day you hammer a nail, place a board, or build a wall. Someone【C17】______said, "Life is a do-it-yourself project." Your【C18】______,and the choices you【C19】______today, help build the "house" you will live in tomorrow. Therefore, build【C20】______!
【C6】
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。
