in spite of 用法详解
什么是 “in spite of”?
in spite of 是一个英语介词短语,表示“尽管”、“虽然”,用于引出与主句内容形成对比的情况。
它后面通常接名词、代词或动名词(即动词的 -ing 形式)。
注意:“in spite of” 后面不能接完整的句子(即不能接 that 从句)。若要接句子,请使用 although 或 even though。

“in spite of” vs “despite”
despite 和 in spite of 在意义上几乎完全相同,可以互换使用。
但 despite 更简洁,更常用于正式写作中。
Despite the bad weather, they had a great time.
= In spite of the bad weather, they had a great time.
小贴士:“despite of” 是错误用法!正确形式是 despite(不加 of)或 in spite of(必须带 of)。
