Question

Select a word(s) (a formal one) expressing contrast or concession to combine the following sentence:
__________________, that tribe is far more barbaric than the others.

• A. Nevertheless
• B. But
• C. Yet
• D. Anyway

Answer 1

The correct option is A Nevertheless

'Nevertheless' is used to indicate that the second point made contrasts with the first point. 'Yet' is used to mean nevertheless or however. It carries a sense of negation. 'But' is used to contrast the ideas. 'Anyway' is used when something is done without regard to what happens.

The given sentence can be completed by using 'nevertheless' as the contrast is shown in the quality of one tribe with others.

Thus, option A is the correct answer.
