 The suit fitted him well _______ the color was a little brighter.

A. except for                                            B. except that

独具【方法技巧】except与except for异同

except与except for在表示“除……之外”时，异同表现在以下几个方面：

(1)意思与位置皆相同

The students are all here except (for) Tom.

(2)意思相同但位置不同

Except for Tom, the students are all here.

(放在句首时，不能用except)

(3)位置相同但意思不同

All the books are interesting except this.

The books are interesting except for some spelling mistakes.

(用except表示前面提及的与排除在外的是同类；except for则不然)

(4)except后面可跟不定式和从句，而except for则不可。
