To my surprise,_____nobody believed what i had said.A nearly B only C hardly D almost 求理由!

almost
almost 一般和 no no one nobody none 等否定词连用
再如：
There is almost nothing worth listening to.
Almost no one believes him.
nearly 一般和not 连用
如：
It isn't nearly(远非）so easy as you think.
还有：almost nobody= hardly anybody
所以不选hardly
