Solution

The correct option is D Although Rita's house is nearby, I seldom see her.
We can determine the correct answer with the help of logic and by eliminating the incorrect answer.
The subordinating conjunctions used to express contrast in a sentence are though, although, as, however, whoever, whatever and notwithstanding.
And, so do not express contrast. We can thus eliminate options A,B as incorrect answers.
Option D is the correct answer as the conjunction 'although' joins the two sentence to express a contrast.
Option C has not been joined. Thus it is incorrect.
