The "think-tank" label became popular in the 1950s, 【C3】______ which time there were already plenty of such organizations in existence. Many of America’s most 【C4】______ tanks were founded in the early 20th century. But think-tanks really 【C5】______ in the second half of the 20th century.

选项
A、apart from
B、despite of
C、rather than
D、because of
答案
C
解析
