Question

Read the sentences from a student’s essay about "The Treasure of Lemon Brown.”

In the beginning of the story, Greg is focused on playing basketball for the Scorpions. His father wants him to study harder and lectures him about the importance of doing well in school.

Which transition should be added between the sentences to improve the flow of ideas?

Still
However
Thus
Second

Answer 1

I would say earlier ‘Thus’ or ‘However’, but there are more instances where you could use ‘However’ so let’s go with however,

Answer 2

However because you can use however as “but”
