Grammar
Even though, as
Hi,
The following is a quiz from one Facebook page.
Campaigners in India are going to court against a tax on menstrual hygiene products. Sanitary pads and tampons are taxed at 12% ........... many other feminine cosmetic products have been made tax-free.
1. as
2. despite
3. even though
I think 1 (as) and 3 (even though) are correct. But the key is 3.
Am I missing something?
Thank you in advance.

anonymous I think 1 (as) and 3 (even though) are correct. But the key is 3. 'as' gives the sense of 'because'.
