We all know that a magician does not really depend on "magic" to perform his tricks, but on his ability to act at great speed. 【26】______ , this does not prevent us from 【27】______ watching a magician produce rabbits from a hat. One of the greatest magician of all time was Harry Houdini, who mastered the art of 【28】______ He could 【29】______ himself from the tight test knots in seconds. 【30】______ no one really knows how he did this, there is no doubt 【31】______ he had made a close 【32】______ of every type of lock ever invented.

The police 【37】______ him of having used a tool and locked him up again.

选项
A、Therefore
B、Consequently
C、However
D、Likewise
答案
C
解析
本题考查的是对文章的理解。文章第一句提到“我们都知道魔术师并不是靠魔法而是靠速度快来表演魔术的”,而本句说“这并不会使我们不喜欢观看魔术师把兔子从帽子里变出来的戏法”。显然这两句之间存在一种转折关系。therefore和 consequently都表示因果关系;however表示转折关系;likewise表示相似关系。所以本题的正确答案是C项。
