问题     I teach economics at UCLA. Last Monday in class, I【36】asked my students how their weekend had been. One young man said that it had not been so good. Then he proceeded to ask me why I always seemed to be so cheerful. His question【37】me of something I’d read somewhere before: "Every morning when you get up, you have a【38】about how you want to approach life that day," I said. "I choose to be cheerful." Then I told them a story.
    One day I was【39】to the college I taught in at Henderson, 17 miles away from where I lived. When a quarter mile was left down the road to the college, my car died. I tried to start it again, but the engine wouldn’t【40】So I walked to the college. My secretary asked me what had happened. "This is my lucky day," I replied, smiling. "Your car breaks down and today is your lucky day?" She was【41】. "What do you mean?" "I live 17 miles from here." I replied. "My car could have broken down anywhere along the freeway. It didn’t.【42】it broke down in the perfect place: off the freeway,within walking distance of the college. I’m still able to teach my class and get help from the tow truck. If my car was meant to break down today, it couldn’t have been in a more convenient way." The secretary’s eyes opened【43】and then she smiled.

选项 A、Hence
B、Instead
C、Therefore
D、Thus
答案B
解析 本题从语篇层面考查副词辨析。hence表示“因此”；therefore表示“所以”；thus表示“所以”。这三个词均表示出一种因果关系，不符合题意。根据上文提示， “My car could have broken down anywhere along the freeway．It didn’t．”可知这位教师想表达的是转折的意思。只有选项B．Instead表示“相反地”，所以应选B为答案。
