高中英语,最后一题。
despite不是接从句么?为什么答案是earning half as much as he used to be.(没有谓语啊)

despite=in spite of 这是表让步关系的介词,从不做连词使用。所以,后面只能接名词性的结构,如:名词词组,动名词词组等。如:
Despite the cold weather, they try their best to school and never be late.
Despite raining, we didn't give up our decision.
而表示尽管,引导让步状语从句的连词很多:though,although, even if, even though, as 等,都是连词。
Even though his parents didn't permit, this girl kept her promise,and visited this penpal.
希望你能理解,并祝学习进步。

despite在这里是介词用法,所以despite后面接名词而不是接从句。
希望可以帮到你!

despite=in spite of+宾,earning是earn的非谓语(要我理解就是earn在这成了名词指赚钱这件事,后为定语修饰earning省略which is)
