练习 1
she prefers whale songs, Luna consented to go to the opera.
Although she prefers whale songs, Luna consented to go to the opera.
Although: 'Although' is the correct choice here. The term introduces contrast between Luna's preference and her decision to attend the concert. Example: Although I hate rock music, I decided to attend the Nirvana concert.
In spite of: 'In spite of' is an expression which introduces contrast, but it is grammatically incorrect here. 'In spite of' must be followed by a noun, not a pronoun or a verb. We could say: 'In spite of her preference for Beethoven, Luna went to the concert'.
Regardless: 'Regardless' is a term which introduces contrast, but it is grammatically incorrect here and doesn't fit into this construction. 'Regardless' must be followed by the preposition 'of' and then a noun, not a pronoun or a verb. We could say: 'Regardless of her preference...'.
Because: 'Because' is grammatically correct, but it does not make sense to use it here. The opera doesn't feature whale songs. 'A whale' is the world's largest mammal, and is a cousin to the dolphin. Famous whales include: Moby Dick, Willy (from the Free Willy films) and Shamu.
