Question

1. read the paragraph. then, choose the best answer.

1 in 2010, pakistan was flooded. 2 the country gained independence from the colonial ruler britain after it endured multiple invasions. 3 unfortunately, the floods generated by the monsoon wiped out much of it’s homes, bridges, plants, and electricity. 4 during the intense rain, people had to run away with just the clothes on they’re backs. 5 several years are passing. 6 however, many countries still help them with supplies and the rebuilding.
which correction, if any, should be made in sentence 6?
take out however and add the dependent clause, because of this.
change the transition from however to finally.
change the transition from however to similarly.
make no change.

Explanation:

To determine the correct correction for sentence 6, we analyze the context. Sentence 5 talks about people's struggles during floods, and sentence 6 introduces that many countries still help with supplies and rebuilding. The word "However" in sentence 6 creates a contrast (people had struggles, but countries helped), which is appropriate. Changing "however" to "finally" (option B) would imply a sequence, not contrast. Changing to "similarly" (option C) would imply similarity, but the ideas are contrasting. Option A (take out "however" and add a dependent clause) would disrupt the contrast and the sentence structure. So, no change is needed.

Answer:

Make no change.
