(单选题)
The old man still works in the mountain village as a teacher, ______ he is in his sixties.
A.as if
B.in case
C.even though
D.ever since
参考答案:C
参考解析:
考查even though引导的让步状语从句。句意:这位老人虽然已经60多岁了,但仍在这个山村里当老师。as if意为“好像”;in case意为“万一,以防,如果”;even though意为“即使,尽管”;ever since意为“从那时起,自那时以来”。分析句子前后的逻辑关系可知,此处应填入让步转折词,只有“even though”符合语境。故选C。
