A.Although he is a socialist 
B.Even if he is a socialist
C.Being a socialist 
D.Since he is a socialist

参考答案:A进入在线模考
【译文】韦尔斯先生虽然是个社会主义者,却几乎不同情和支持工人阶级。
【解析】连词的含义与用法。本句表达的是一般性的转折、让步关系,应该选A.Although表示“尽管,虽然”。B中的Even if也表示让步,但其意为“即使/即便……,也……”,强调“假设的、退一步的”情况。C.Being a socialist是现在分词短语表示原因,相当于一个表示原因的状语从旬,如:Not knowing her address,we couldn’t get in touch with her.(因为不知道她的地址,我们没法和她联系。)D.Since he is a socialist也表示原因,都不符合句意。
