E Very reluctant to have any extra weight on his plane when he attempted his solo transatlantic flight, Charles Lindbergh

正确答案：

E

题目释义：

Very reluctant to have any extra weight ….., Charles Lindbergh refused to …….., despite…..…

主语是Charles Lindbergh，形容词引导的不定式前置，修饰主语，谓语为refuse to do sth，despite引导的状语从句，修饰谓语，表转折。

考点解析：

句子结构

Attempt的用法：

做及物动词时：

attempt to do sth.

attempt sth.

做名词时：

an attempt at (doing) sth.

an attempt to do sth. 但是不及attempt to do sth.简洁有效

选项分析：

(A) 缺少连词，两套主谓结构，注意therefore是副词，不能做连词用;for引出目的状语逻辑不够合理，时间状语即可。

(B) being多余;being very reluctant to引导的成分夹心修饰。

(C) since和so语意重复，且两句话两个连词错误。;

(D) 句式结构复杂，clumsy&awkward。

(E) Correct。
