三、although在真题中的复现

【2004年考研英语完形填空】Other identifiable causes of offensive acts include frustration or failure in school, the increased availability of drugs and alcohol, and the growing incidence of child abuse and child neglect. All these conditions tend to increase the probability of a child committing a criminal act, 40 a direct causal relationship has not yet been established.

40. (A)provided (B)since (C) although (D) supposing

【答案】C

【解析】逻辑衔接题。本题意在让考生选择连词，将前、后两个句子紧密连接起来。All these conditions tend to increase the probability of a child committing a criminal act,a direct causal relationship has not yet been established.即“所有的这些情况都趋向于增加青少年犯罪的可能性，……其中直接的联系还没有建立起来。”我们不难发现，前、后两个句子之间体现的是让步关系。在选项中A. provided 倘若(表示条件关系)，B.since 既然(表示原因)，C.although 虽然……但是(表示让步关系)，D. supposing 假使(表示条件关系)。因此，正确答案为C。
