Question

7 choose the answer that best completes the sentence below. people in the artistic community tried to stop the destruction of 5 pointz _______, despite their efforts, it was destroyed in 2014 a like b third c never d but

Explanation:

The first part of the sentence talks about people trying to stop the destruction, and the second part says it was destroyed despite their efforts. This shows a contrast, so we need a conjunction that indicates contrast. "But" is a conjunction used to show contrast. "Like" is a preposition or verb, "third" is an ordinal number, and "never" is an adverb, none of which fit the context to show the contrast between trying to stop and the destruction happening.

Answer:

D. but
