问题     What would the world look like without the dollar domination? US officials are【C1】______ out a deal to end the government shutdown and【C2】______ its debt limit, hoping to avoid a global【C3】______ crisis. Meanwhile, some eyed【C4】______ to the US dollar to avoid a repeat.
    Earlier this week, an editorial from Xinhua news agency, called【C5】______ a new international reserve currency to【C6】______ the dollar. "It is perhaps a good time for the【C7】______ world to start considering building a de-Americanized world," it said.
    An organization like the International Monetary Fund could theoretically【C8】______ an entirely new international currency, says Benjamin Cohen of the University of California, but political disagreement would raise its ugly【C9】______ again. "Think of all the trouble the European Monetary Union has had【C10】______ with just 17 countries. Now【C11】______ by ten."
    "I think it much more likely that another【C12】______ currency becomes more important in international markets," says Menzie Chinn of the University of Wisconsin. "The Chinese are, with mixed【C13】______, pursuing a path of making their own currency more international."
    【C14】______ don’t expect to be cashing in renminbi any time soon. The last big【C15】______ in reserve currency, from British pounds to the US dollar, began in the 1950s and【C16】______ two decades.
    Even if we could just【C17】______ the dollar overnight, no other currency, including the renminbi, can currently【C18】______ it, says Cohen. "Governments still use the dollar, 【C19】______ the current political difficulty in Washington, because of its【C20】______ availability, deep liquidity and wide acceptability."
【C19】

选项 A、despite
B、given
C、with
D、without

答案A

解析 空格所在句的主句用到程度副词still来限定动词use,而后面的状语中有political difficulty,A项despite代入后引导让步状语,表示尽管遭遇困难,政府依然使用美元,语义通顺,逻辑合理。
