Hearst Castle is a National Historic Landmark and California Historical Landmark mansion located on the Central Coast of California in the U.S.A. It was designed by architect Julia Morgan, __(41)__ between 1919 and 1947, as a residence for newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst, who died in 1951. In 1954, it became a California State Park. The site was opened to visitors in 1958. Since then it has been operated as the Hearst San Simeon State Historical Monument, where the estate, along with its considerable collection of art and antiques, is open for public tours. __(42)__ its location far from any urban center, the site attracts millions of travelers each year.

While guests were expected to attend the formal dinners each evening, they were normally left to their own __(43)__ during the day while Hearst directed his business affairs. Since the estate had so many facilities, including its own movie studio, guests were __(44)__ at a loss for things to do.

To uphold the estate's non-profit image, __(45)__ filming is not often at Hearst Castle and most requests are turned down.

DAlong with
答案與詳解
B
正確答案
空格後「遠離市區」與「吸引數百萬遊客」形成語意對比,需選表讓步/儘管的連接詞 Despite。

為什麼答案是 B

短文原句為 'Despite its location far from any urban center, the site attracts millions of travelers each year.' Despite 表「儘管」,完美表達地點偏遠(障礙)與仍吸引數百萬遊客(結果)之間的讓步對比,且 Despite 後直接接名詞片語,文法正確。

考點:介系詞語意辨析考點:讓步介系詞 Despite 用法
