选项
A、therefore
B、but
C、so that
D、nevertheless
答案
C
解析
此题属于语法题。so that为连词,连接结果状语从句。根据句子意思,前半句讲地区差异很小,下半句讲新加坡、南非等地的英语差别不大,是前半句的结果,故选项so that正确。选项therefore副词,连接因果状语从句,例如:Those people have their umbrellas up;therefore,it must be raining.选项but(但是)表转折关系;选项nevertheless表示"然而",连接转折状语从句,例如:He was very tired;nevertheless,he kept working.
