Fill the blank with the most meaningful sentence as per the context of the passage. But did working one day a week in person solve the challenge of connectedness with colleagues? __________.

  The sentence prior to the blank poses a question - did working one day a week help with the problem of lack of connectedness with colleagues. The sentence that follows must answer this question. B can fit in the blank as it tells us how this did not solve the problem as expected. Thus, B is the right answer. A and E are out of scope as they give specific examples of organisations that are taking different approaches to hybrid work. C is incorrect because it talks about the cause behind the rise in remote work, which is not being discussed at this point in the passage. D gives an additional finding of the study, which is not being discussed here.
