Fill in the blank with the appropriate transition.
The protagonist of the story is portrayed as someone who is fearless and never flinches even when he faces death. _______, he exhibits fear at one instance where the antagonist puts him in a dire situation.
- However
- Moreover
- Despite
- None of the above
Hint:
Transition refers to change in situation, and several linkers are used to mark this change or shift of tone within a statement according to the respective circumstances.
The correct answer is: However
The correct answer is "However".
Here, two sentences are placed side by side with contradictory sense : the first one telling about a dauntless and super brave protagonist and the second one exposing the fear of the same courageous hero in front of the antagonist. Since the transition or change of situation is marked by contrast, the correct answer is "However".
