M&S, Ltd., had been trying to win local government (146) for a 15,000-square-meter department store with an adjoining parking lot for 350 vehicles. However, M&S, Ltd., failed to convince the local government planning authority that the development would be in keeping with the style of (147) a sensitive location. (148) the site is on the edge of the historical district, it would be visible from Butler’s Wharf and the cobbled streets that form the heart of old Wintertown. This area attracts thousands of visitors annually.

选项 A、Yet
B、But
C、However
D、Although
