His efforts to raise money for his program were ______ because, no one showed any intention to take a cent out of their pockets.
A.in placeB.in sightC.in effectD.in vain
D.
考查介词短语。根据下文no one showed any intention to take a cent out of their pockets可知为集资做出的努力都白费了,应选择in vain。in place“和平地”,in sight“在视程内”,in effect“实际上”。
