问题     After yuppies and dinkies.a new creature from adland stalks the block. The NYLON, an acronym linking New York and London, is a refinement of those more familiar categories such as jet-setters and cosmo-crats(cosmopolitan aristocrats…do keep up). Marketing professionals have noted that【C1】______the demise of Concorde, a new class of high-earner increasingly【C2】______his or her time shuttling【C3】______the twin capitals of globalization. And NYLONS prefer their home comforts【C4】______tap in both cities. Despite the impressive【C5】______of air miles, they are not adventurous people.
    As【C6】______from Tom Wolfe’s Masters of the Universe of the 1980s .NYLONS have done more than well【C7】______the long boom and new economy of the last ten years. They are DJs, chefs, games designers, Internet entrepreneurs, fashionistas, publishers and even a(n)【C8】______band of journalists and writers. They are self-consciously trendy and some are even able to 【C9】______houses in both cities. Others will put up【C10】______a house in one, and a view【C11】______a room in the【C12】______. Of course, their horizons do【C13】______beyond just New York and London. For many, Los Angeles is an important shopping mall.
    More significantly for adland, NYLONS provide some useful marketing savings. Campaigns no longer have to differ very much in the two cities,【C14】______NYLONS bring them ever closer together. The restaurants are the same, with Nobu now in London and Conran in New York. Many plays【C15】______in both cities at the same time, and DJs shuttle between the two, 【C16】______the same garage to the same people in【C17】______clubs. Time Out and Wallpaper are the magazines of【C18】______All this is fine for NYLONS. But not so much【C19】______for everybody else watching Notting Hill turn【C20】______a pale imitation of Greenwich Village.
【C1】
选项 A、regardless of
B、even though
C、although
D、despite
答案D
解析 本题考核的知识点是逻辑+语法。A是表转折的介词短语，意为“尽管”，后面一般加困难之类的词语。B、C是转折连词，后面一般加句子；D是表转折的介词，意为“尽管，虽然”。D比较符合题意。市场预测专家注意到虽然Concorde已经消失了。
