Question

Fill in the blank with the most suitable conjunction:
The bird picked up bread _________ it wanted to feed its little ones.

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

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

because

Conjunctions are words that link other words, phrases or clauses together. 'And' is used to link two equal parts of the sentence. 'But' is used to show contrast. Here, the reason is provided for picking up the bread by bird. 'So' provides the purpose of something. 'Because' is used for giving reasons. Thus, option C is the correct answer. Rest of the options are incorrect.
