of the progressive Imagists

应该是 the leader吧

I agree with you. However, the answer is "dispite". I can't understand it.

"despite" should be "but"

Anwwer C.despite----->and,连词，连接并列的两个分句（no sure).

despite ( a preposition) + noun phrase.
The best answer, I think, is ---> (despite) --->(Although he).
(But he) is grammatcally OK too.( Or if Amy is a she.)
