Question

choose the conjunctive adverb that best completes the sentence. marcos chopped onions for the soup; ______. maria prepared the cheese plate a. finally b. accordingly c. meanwhile d. otherwise

Explanation:

• Finally implies an end or conclusion, which doesn't fit the context of two parallel actions.
• Accordingly means in a way that is appropriate or as a result, not relevant here.
• Meanwhile indicates that two actions are happening at the same time, which is the case (Marcos chopping onions and Maria preparing the cheese plate).
• Otherwise means if not or in another way, not suitable for this sentence.

Answer:

C. meanwhile
