选项 A.however
B.instead
C.likewise
D.therefore
答案 B
解析 副词辨析题。首先要明确，instead和however不是连词，而是副词。其次，A项however“然而”，表示一种转折，说明后面陈述的内容与前面的内容相反，通常用在句首（较正规），若用在句中必须用“，”隔开；B项instead“相反”虽然也表示转折，但它的意思更侧重于“取而代之”，所以往往翻译成“相反地”；根据文中he expected the usual:about 20 minutes and a brisk attitude，He was surprised to find the privatc-equity people explairung their strategy，前后有转折关系；c项likewise“同样地，照样地，又，也”，作副词使用，表示一种并列关系；D项therefore“因此”，表示因果关系。因此不能选C项和D项，再根据在句中的位置．B项符合条件，故B项为正确选项。【干扰排除】A项however通常用在句首；c项likeWise的意思是“同样地，照样地，又，也”，作副词使用，表示一种并列关系：D项therefore“因此”，表示因果关系。故均排除。
