问题                    The White House
   We got up early this morning and (1)  a long walk after breakfast. We walked through the business section of the city. I told you yesterday that the city was larger  (2) I thought it would be.(3) the business section is smaller than I thought it would be. I suppose that’s(4) Washington is a special kind of city.(5) the people in Washington work for the government. About 9:30 we went to the White House. It’s(6) to the public from 10 till 12, and there was a long line of people waiting to get in. We didn’t have to wait very long, because the line moved(7) quickly.

The grounds(9) about four square blocks. I mean, they’re about two blocks long(10) each side. The part(11) the President lives and works is not open to the public. But the part we saw was beautiful. We went through five of the main rooms. One of them was the library, on the ground floor. On the next floor, there are three rooms named(12) the colors that are used in them: the Red Room, the Blue Room and the Green Room. The walls are covered with silk(13).There are(14) old furniture, from the time(15) the  White House was first built.

选项 A、since
B、as
C、because
D、because of
答案C
解析 四个备选答案都可表示原因，看原文：空格后是一从句，因此空格处需要引导从句的连词，而初步来说A、B和C在语法上都合适。再仔细比较这三个选项:since和as引导的表原因的从句往往有逗号与主句分开，而because的语气很强，其引导的从句不与主句分开。
