【答案】C。
【考点】考查交际口语的用法。

【答案】C。
【考点】考查冠词的用法。

A. However B. Nevertheless C. Besides D. Meanwhile

Meanwhile, we’ll have some coffee. 他们10分钟后到这儿，现在我们先喝点儿咖啡。I was cutting the grass, and he was meanwhile planting roses. 我在割草，而这时他在种玫瑰。

【考点】考查动词时态的用法。
【解析】根据句中的since可知，空格处应填完成时态，故可排除B和C；根据句意，空格处填现在完成进行时比填现在完成时更合适，因为它更强调“一直在做某事”。又如：He has been working since noon. 他从中午就开始工作了。He was taken ill and no wonder, considering he has been overworking for years. 他生病了，也难怪，多少年他一直过度辛劳。
