If the first kind of taxation is used, should everyone pay the same tax,【C7】______he or she is rich or poor? If the second kind of tax is used, should everything be taxed equally? In most countries, a direct tax on persons, called an income tax, is used.

选项 A、although
B、whether
C、however
D、despite

答案 B

解析空格之后有两个连接词or，第一个or表示选择，意为“或”。第二个or常与whether连用，whether…or表示“不管……还是”，因此空格中应填入B项whether。其他几个选项均不能与or搭配，因而都不正确。
