Question

Fill in blank (27) with the most appropriate option:

• A. and
• B. but
• C. so
• D. because

Answer 1

The correct option is A and

The given sentence states two different actions: "She likes staying at home in the evening" and "watching television with parents", where one is an addition to the other. Hence a word will be used that adds the two.

Option A: 'And' is a conjunction that merely connects or adds two clauses together. It's relevant to the given statement which also requires to be merely connected. Hence this option is correct.

Option B: 'But' expresses contrast between two ideas. The given sentence does not express any contrast.

Option C: 'So' expresses a conclusion: 'They misbehaved with her, so she taught them a lesson.' It's irrelevant to the given sentence.

Option D: 'Because' refers to reason, whereas there is no reason seen in the given sentence.

Hence options B, C and D are incorrect.
