Question

哪位英语高手能帮忙选一下答案，并讲解一下理由，拜托了！

（ ）dull he may be ,he is certainly a very successful top executive.
A.Although
B.Whatever
C.As
D.However

Answer 1

答案：D�
【详细解答】选However。容易误选As，因为as有时用来表示“尽管”，但在那个句型中句首得是形容词或动词，比如可以说Dull as he may be, …。也可以把as放在句首，但要说成As dull as he may be, …。题干中说he may be而不说he is，有增加题目难度方面的考虑。
