21.____lack of success and financial reward, Vincent van Gogh persevered with his painting.
(A)Although his
(B) His
(C) Despite his
(D) Because of his

用中文來看, 好像A和C都對.  

Although是連接詞, 要連接兩個句子, 選項放進空格的句子為Although + his lack of success and financial reward, 這樣只是although+名詞, 並不是接句子, 應改為 Although he lacked of success and financial reward, Vincent van Gogh persevered with his painting.

Despite his lack of success and financial reward, Vincent van Gogh persevered with his painting. 

儘管梵谷缺乏成功和財務的獎賞, 他仍然堅持畫畫.

(A) Although (連接詞) his  雖然...(但是)

(B) His
(C) Despite (介係詞) his  儘管...(仍然)
(D) Because of his   因為...(所以)
