176. (26076-!-item-!-188;#058&001714) (GWD17-Q12)

Mauritius was a British colony for almost 200 years, (excepting for) the domains of administration and teaching, the English language was never really spoken on the island.
A. excepting for
B. except in
C. but except in
D. but excepting for
E. with the exception of
这题前后两个句子缺少连词, 所以锁定了C,D,我不幸选了D,请问except for 和except in用法究竟有什么区别?还有except和excepting又有什么区别?
多谢多谢了

OG11的review里有提到excepting多用于否定意义的句子，有一个说法是要跟在not, only, always, without或者其他程度绝对化的词如all后面。

但是我觉得这个分法太细致。事实上这道题目看(in the domains of) administration and teaching这个搭配更容易辨别出来。
