I worked on website that have similar exercises to the FCE, this time I made an exercise to transform a sentence to the same idea with a different word, they gave me a key word that I have to use.
Here is an Example:
John said he was sorry he had lost the tickets. (APOLOGISED)
John apologised for losing the tickets.
John said he was sorry he had lost the tickets. (APOLOGISED)
John apologised for losing the tickets.
In a sentence I dont have idea of the answer beacause I didnt know the meaning of the key word this key word was: DESPITE, and I investigate what was the meaning and then I understood the idea of the sentence.
de·spite (d
-sp
t
)
-spt)
prep.
In spite of; notwithstanding: won the game despite overwhelming odds.
n.
1. Contemptuous defiance or disregard.
2. Spite; malice: "He died soon after . . . of pure despite and vexation" (Sir Walter Scott).
