Question

Fill in blank ___(3)___ with a suitable option:

• A. But
• B. And
• C. Hence
• D. From

Answer 1

The correct option is A But

Option A: 'But' expresses contrast and is relevant to the given sentence. The current statement "they believed in themselves and carried on..." contrasts with the previous statement "Many people criticized and discouraged their dream". Hence option A is correct.

'And' refers to addition, 'hence' is used to conclude something and 'from' refers to a starting point. None of these words are relevant to the contrast expressed in the given statement.

Hence options B, C and D are incorrect.
