PSAT Writing and Language Question 536: Answer and Explanation
Question: 536
- A. NO CHANGE
- B. Furthermore,
- C. Nevertheless,
- D. Consequently,
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
(B) Analyze the relationship between this sentence and the previous sentence to diagnose the relationship between the two. In this case, each sentence independently builds on the statement in the first sentence of the paragraph that says that carbon can be a "curse." "Furthermore" is the best way to list an additional aspect to an argument. "Accordingly" and "consequently" express cause and effect, which is not what we want. "Nevertheless" is contrasting, which is equally incorrect.
