单选题 The salon's supplier asked for payment of the hair products in full,______they cannot be shipped until next week.
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】解析:这句话中的主要成分是“The salon’s supplier asked for payment”,修饰成分为“______they cannot be shipped until next week”,这一修饰成分中有动词cannot be shipped,选项中可以引导让步状语从句的连接词只有(A)和(C)。根据“尽管下周前无法完成产品配送,但仍要求支付全额费用”的句意可知,(A)even though(尽管)为正确答案。如果选(C)as soon as(一……就……)会使句意不通。(B)apart from(除……外)与(D)due to(因为)后面都跟名词而不用于引导从句。
