Question

Grace is a good friend. We do not see each other often
Combine the above sentence with a conjunction that expresses a contrast:

• A. Grace is a good friend and we do not see each other often.
• B. Grace is a good friend also we do not see each other often.
• C. Grace is a good friend although we do not see each other often.
• D. Grace is a good friend so we do not see each other often.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Grace is a good friend although we do not see each other often.

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, also and so do not express contrast. We can thus eliminate options A,B,D as incorrect answers.

Option C is the correct answer as the conjunction 'although' joins the two sentence to express a contrast.
