Question
Choose the right answer to make a complete compound sentence.
I like the color purple, __________ red is my favorite color.
- Though
- And
- But
- So
Hint:
A compound sentence is a sentence that connects two independent clauses, typically with a conjunction. Look at the options and choose the word which would make a sensible and complete sentence.
The correct answer is: But
We are required to fill in the blank with a word that conveys the meaning "in contrast to". Option a expresses "in spite of", option b expresses "in addition to" and option d expresses "therefore", so they are all eliminated. Thus the correct answer is option c.
