OG11-60

equilibrium

More and more in recent years, cities are stressing the arts as a means to greater economic development and investing millions of dollars in cultural activities, despite strained municipal budgets and fading federal support

请教nn黄色部分是不是在句中做后置定语成分？

虚无飘渺

DESPITE是状语吧.

equilibrium

介词做状语修饰动词，做定语修饰名词，因此应该是做定语吧？做状语修饰stress和invest意思不通吧？

看不到黄线[em03]

不过要是DISPITE后面的部分的话，那它是做壮语，表让步。
