Answer 1

A
試題分析：句意：我們誤了火車(chē)，而且更糟的是下一列火車(chē)也晚點(diǎn)了。on top of另外；what was worse更糟的是，它是獨(dú)立使用，所以它的后面必須加上逗號(hào)。thus ，so 和therefore后面都可以跟結(jié)果。根據(jù)句意故選A。
考點(diǎn)：考查副詞及短語(yǔ)的用法。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：本題難度適中。副詞和短語(yǔ)是高中階段的重要的語(yǔ)法項(xiàng)目，需要考生掌握它們的用法、意義及區(qū)別。

A. on top of          B. as a result  C. as a result of    D. apart from
