Read the sentences from a student’s essay about “The Treasure of Lemon Brown.”The thugs say that they don’t wish to harm Lemon Brown. But they plan to attack him, showing that their greed is more powerful than their humanity.

The second sentence contrasts the thugs’ claim that they do not want to harm Lemon Brown with their plan to attack him. “However, they still plan” makes that contrast clear and keeps the sentence’s meaning. “In conclusion,” “Finally,” and “Then” suggest a conclusion, sequence, or time order instead.
