However, despite says the opposite. Thus, B and C are wrong. The level of intelligence is not relevant in this question so D is also wrong.
2. Because is used for reason. It usually creates a cause and effect sentence. Being friendly does not make a person despised. Generosity does not lead to wealth so C is also wrong. The strangeness of a person also does not have anything to do with their own fortune as it is only a behavioural act and has nothing to do with one's future and fortune. It can only make sense that if a person is unpleasant, they are unpopular as people generally do not like to be around others that are unpleasant to them.
