单选题
______Baklase Pharmaceuticals shut down two factories last month, it still managed to meet its production target this year.
【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】解析:这句话的主要成分是“it still managed to meet its production target”,修饰成分是“______Baklase Pharmaceuticals shut down two factories last month”,修饰成分的谓语是shut down,此处可以起到连接作用的状语从句引导词是(A)或(B)。根据上下文语义,此处表示“尽管上个月关闭了两家工厂,依然完成了今年的生产目标”,故此处应选(A)Although(尽管)。如果选(B)Since(因为),则句意不通顺。并列连词(C)So(所以)不能引导让步状语从句,连接副词(D)However填入空格处,句意不通顺。
