She was not____frightend ; in fact ,she was nearly frightend to death.

题目

She was not____frightend ; in fact ,she was nearly frightend to death.
A.a bit
B.a little
C.at all
D.much
答案为什么是B.后半句说事实上她几乎被吓死,貌似应该是一个转折啊,那前半句不就应该是她看上去不害怕（差不多就是这个意思）.那不就应该选A么

答案

没有搞清楚这两个的用法.后面一句是对前面的解释,她非常害怕,实际上,快被吓死了.说明她害怕到那种程度.如果选A,就是说她一定都不害怕,实际上,她害怕得要死.不是很矛盾嘛!你自己看嘛
a bit和a little都作"一点儿"讲,但用法不同.
1)a bit和a little在肯定句中修饰动词、形容词、副词和比较级时可以互换,表示"一点儿"的意思.例如:
The speaker spoke up a bit/a little so as to make himself heard more clearly.
演讲者把嗓门提高了一点儿,以便使别人听得更清楚.
2)a bit和a little在否定句中的意思恰恰相反,not a bit相当于"not at all"(一点儿都不);not a little相当于"very(much)"或"extremely"(很、非常).例如:
She is not a bit tired.(=She is not tired at all.)她一点都不累.
3)a little可以直接作定语修饰名词,而a bit则要在后面加of构成短语才能作定语,两者都只能修饰不可数名词.例如:
There is a little/a bit of food left for lunch.
午饭只能吃剩下的一点食品了.
