987-302 没人问过? for为何不能少?

     For all his professed disdain of such activities, Auden was an inveterate literary gossip.

(A) For all his professed disdain of such activities

(B) Having always professed disdain for such activities

(C) All such activities were, he professed, disdained, and

(D) Professing that all such activities were disdained（A）

(E) In spite of professions of disdaining all such activities  

请问哪位NN能帮我看看这题

为啥选A   我选了B 

我也选b,仔细想想后发现 这句话是转折的意思，可以理解为Although he professed disdain of such activities (gossip), Auden was an inveterate literary gossip. 尽管他对gossip持有鄙视态度，Auden还是gossip高手。这里就是for all是固定用法，相当于despite，inspite of。

另外， 看看这个老铁
