Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate conjunction:
________ my uncle is old, he thinks like a child.

• A. But
• B. That
• C. Although
• D. As

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Although

Subordinating conjunction is a word that links a dependent clause to an independent clause. 'But' is used to connect ideas that contrast. 'That' is used for introducing a clause stating a fact. 'As' is used for showing comparison. 'Although' is used for introducing a statement that makes the main statement in a sentence seem surprising. In the given sentence, such a surprise statement is established.

Thus, option C is the correct answer.
