It is unbelievable that Mr. Lucas leads a simple life __his great wealth.
A.withoutB. despiteC. inD.to
B

试题分析:despite用作介词时,与 in spite of同义,表示“尽管”、“虽然”、“不顾”之意 。放在句首时,要接成分,成分也就是句子的组成部分,由词或词组充当。 如: Despite his advanced years,he is learning to drive. 虽然年事已高,他现在在学驾驶汽车。 Despite the drought,we expect a good crop. 尽管天旱,丰收依然在望。 因此B选项正确。句意为“难以置信的是Lucas先生尽管他拥有巨大财富,但还是过着一种简朴的生活。”
