以下是引用littlegirl在2003-10-20 17:04:00的发言：

“used to add a statement that balances or reduces the effect of what you have just said”

although不表示让步吗？

补充材料429题

Distinguished architecture requires the expenditure of large sums of money, (even if it is by no means certian that the expenditure of large sumes of money produce) distinguished architecture.

a)even if it is by no means certian that the expenditure of large sums of money produce;

b)even if it is by no means certian that the expenditure of large sums of money will product;

c)even though there is no certainty that the expenditure of money in large sums produces;

d)even though it is by no means certain that the expenditure of large sums of money produces;

e)though there is no certainty as to the expenditure of money in large sums producing;

答案选D,为什么不能选B呢？

b)even if it is by no means certian that the expenditure of large sums of money will produce;

我想B最关键的是时态错了:不是will produce。表述一个现在的情况，应该用一般现在时，与前面的requires对应。
