Question #: 4: Although the fact that it was dangerous, he still did it.

Question #: 6: Despite I tried my best, I failed.

Correct answer: False
Should I say despite the fact that I tried my best, I failed. You could say that, but I would try to avoid needlessly wordy phrases such as "despite the fact that".
Use "although" here. |
