Question 7 • 26-27 ERWC A/B 9800E 9801E

Which sentence uses transitions most effectively?

Answer

Additional hours of road practice might delay driver licensure; however, new drivers would be better prepared to navigate the roads safely.

Additional hours of road practice might delay driver licensure; in addition, new drivers would be better prepared to navigate the roads safely.

Additional hours of road practice might delay driver licensure, since new drivers would be better prepared to navigate the roads safely.

Additional hours of road practice might delay driver licensure; for instance, new drivers would be better prepared to navigate the roads safely.

Explanation

The two ideas contrast: requiring additional practice could delay licensure, but it could also make new drivers safer. “However” clearly signals that contrast, so sentence A uses the transition most effectively. “In addition” suggests the ideas simply add together, while “since” and “for instance” do not express the intended relationship.
