________the challenge of advertising this event, over one million people in at least 65 countries are expected to join in the next Buy Nothing Day.
A. Although
B. Though
C. Despite
D. In spite
题目解答
答案
C. Despite
解析
本题考查连词的用法。句意为“尽管宣传这个活动有挑战,预计至少65个国家的一百多万人将参加下一次的不买日”。尽管有挑战,但人们仍然会参加活动,这里需要一个表示让步的连词。选项A和B虽然也可以表示让步,但它们后面需要接从句,而本句中“the challenge of advertising this event”是一个名词短语,因此不能用although或though。选项D后面也需要接of,而本句中没有of,因此也不能用in spite。选项C despite可以单独使用,后面直接接名词短语,符合本句的语法结构。
