Question

    Select the phrase/connector (it must be at the start)

    from the given three alternatives which can be used to form a single sentence from the two sentences given below, implying the same meaning as expressed in the statement sentences. I. Many homebuyers are unaware about the implications of co-ownership and, therefore, lose out on the benefits. II. Agarwal and Garg know several benefits of joint ownership of a house. (i) As a matter of fact (ii) Inevitably (iii) Unlike
    A Only (i) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only (iii) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Both (i) and (ii) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Both (ii) and (iii) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All (i), (ii) and (iii) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    (b) The two statements show a contrast where statement I talks about unawareness while statement II conveys familiarity with the benefits. Therefore, 'unlike' would be an appropriate connector. 'Inevitably' is used to show cause-effect relationship and 'as a matter of fact' is used to lay emphasis. Hence, (b) is the right answer. Unlike Agarwal and Garg who know several benefits of joint ownership of a house, many homebuyers are unaware about the implications of co-ownership and, therefore, lose out on the benefits.
