Answer 1

[Dương Hoàn Anh]

Đáp án là D.

Mặc dù mệt mỏi Joe vẫn hoàn thành được công việc.

Câu A sai vì hai mệnh đề không tương quan về thì.

B. Joe đã hoàn thành được công việc nhưng anh ấy mệt. => sai nghĩa

Câu C sai vì Despite + Ving / Cụm danh từ

D.Mặc dù có vẻ mệt mỏi, Joe vẫn hoàn thành công việc.

Cấu trúc: Tính từ + as/ though + S+ V = In spite of / Despite + Ving / cụm danh từ.
