Sometimes we buy a magazine with absolutely no purpose ___________ to pass time.
A.other thatB.rather thanC.as wellD.more than
A

试题分析:考查than短语。Other than除…之外;rather than而不是;as well和,同,也,并;more than超过,不仅仅,非常;句意:有时候除了消磨时间以外我们买一份杂志真的没有什么特别的目的。本句中的other than意为:除…之外;故A正确。
点评:本题的四个短语是高考中关于than的常考短语,特别要注意more than和不同的词连用有很多不同的意思,要注意其一词多义的现象。
