connectors are given. Only one of the connectors from those given can be used to combine the given two statements into one sentence without changing the meaning. Choose that connector as your answer. I. Britain and Argentina fought a brief war over the Falkland Islands in 1982 and Britain won that war. II. Argentina continues to claim the islands, which it refers to as Las Malvinas.Solution
(c) The given sentences are contradictory in nature. Sentence I seeks to convey that Britain and Argentina fought a war over the Falkland Islands in 1982 and Britain won it. Sentence II presents a contradiction by stating that despite the victory of Britain, Argentina still continues its claim over the islands and calls them by the name of Las Malvinas. BUT is used to present a contradiction and can be used to join the two sentences: "Britain and Argentina fought a brief war over the Falkland Islands in 1982 and Britain won that war but Argentina continues to claim the islands, which it refers to as Las Malvinas." Thus, C is the right answer. BECAUSE is used to show reason. THEREFORE is used to state the effect or result of an event or an action. IF is used to state a condition.
