After finishing middle school, my sister did nothing ________ at home. A．but to read B．but read C．besides reading D．except to read

Answer 1

B

but, except 和besides都有“除…之外”的意思，但没有”，相当于not including. 另外，but后面可接不定式to do,但如果but前面有实义动词dbesides是“除…之外，还”的意思，等于in addition to; 而except, but 是“除…之外， o的任何形式，不定式省略to。
