A. despite
B. although
C. however
D. spite
View Answer
Ans : A
Explanation: Despite is the correct option.
Despite means regardless of, in spite of, etc. and is grammatically correct in this situation.
Although does have a similar meaning, but it is grammatically incorrect in this situation, since although being doesn’t make sense. For that to be correct, you'd have to say although I was very tired.
In order for however to work, this would have to be I could not sleep, however, I was very tired. And of the three, that makes the least sense.
So yeah. Despite is correct.
