Glancing at his map,he informed us that the next village was (a mere) twenty miles away

问题描述:

Glancing at his map,he informed us that the next village was (a mere) twenty miles away
括号里可以用什么代替 A simply B only哪一个?为什么?

MERE==only,just --------只不过
如果是simply,simply的後面要有a / an这样的单词.比如说:
=== the next village was SIMPLY a matter of twenty miles away
