第26题选

A．Without
B．Unlike
C．Despite
D．Besides

参考答案B

解析:参考译文
民间玩具是指其设计一代代传承下来，由手工而不是工厂制作而成的玩具。与工厂生产出的产品不同的是，它们既不受版权和专利的保护，也不是机械生产出的标准化产品。早期的民间玩具都是由一些天然的材料制成，这些材料包括木头、布、金属、泥土以及其他能找到的材料。
因为木头很多、容易制作而且不需涂色，所以人们常常使用木头制作玩具。这些玩具通常被认为无足轻重，所以关于它们的记载很少。父母为孩子制作玩具，孩子们自己也制作玩具。这些玩具常常制作得非常巧妙，并且还可以活动。通常爸爸们和男孩子们最喜欢的是可活动玩具，然而妈妈们和女孩子们则更偏爱玩偶和女红。
民间玩具包括可活动玩具、模型、竞赛类玩具、智力玩具以及玩偶。这些玩具种类丰富，包括技能玩具、平衡玩具、飞行玩具、射击玩具、伴有音乐或噪音的玩具以及动画玩具。在历史长河中，制作者的姓名早已不得而知，关于玩具的描述性的名称也各不相同。代表性的名字包括吼板、天梯以及木头人玩偶。
阿巴拉契亚山脉地区的早期定居者主要来自于德国、英格兰、苏格兰以及爱尔兰，他们从家乡也带来了许多民间玩具的制作工艺。这些工艺在一代代传承的过程中有许多的修改，因此现在与过去也有很大的不同。在繁荣时期，自制玩具会有所减少，因为人们有能力购买工厂制作而成的玩具。然而最近人们对于山区民间玩具遗产又有了一种新的认识。与工厂制作而成的玩具相比，人们更愿意购买手工制成的玩具。
本题考查介词词义辨析。without没有；unlike不像；de-spite尽管；besides此外。此处是说不像工厂生产出的产品，所以只有unlike符合题意，故选B。
