If we were to plug in the first option into the paragraph, it would sound like this...

The Huntington Library, located in San Marino, California, contains a significant collection of rare books and manuscripts. A visitor of the library will, however, find one of the original copies of the Gutenberg Bible, as well as first-edition copies of books by William Blake.

This cannot be the correct answer because the word however is used to contradict something that has been said previously. This sentence has no reason to be contradicted.

If we were to plug in the second option into the paragraph, it would sound something like this...

The Huntington Library, located in San Marino, California, contains a significant collection of rare books and manuscripts. A visitor of the library will, similarly, find one of the original copies of the Gutenberg Bible, as well as first-edition copies of books by William Blake.

This option is also incorrect because the word 'similarly' is used to indicate a similarity between two facts or events. But the two sentences are talking about he same thing so there is nothing to indicate similarity.

If we plug in the third option into the paragraph, it would sound something like this...

The Huntington Library, located in San Marino, California, contains a significant collection of rare books and manuscripts. A visitor of the library will, additionally, find one of the original copies of the Gutenberg Bible, as well as first-edition copies of books by William Blake.

This option can also not be the correct answer because no new factor is being introduced into the sentences.

If we plug in the first option into the paragraph, it will sound something like this...

<span>The Huntington Library, located in San Marino, California, contains a significant collection of rare books and manuscripts. A visitor of the library will, in fact, find one of the original copies of the Gutenberg Bible, as well as first-edition copies of books by William Blake.

This is the correct answer because the sentence is using this word </span><span>to emphasize the statement they are trying to make.

This means the correct answer is d )  in fact.

The Huntington Library, located in San Marino, California, contains a significant collection of rare books and manuscripts. A visitor of the library will, in fact, find one of the original copies of the Gutenberg Bible, as well as first-edition copies of books by William Blake.

D. In fact is the correct answer choice to this question.

The other choices are either comparing or adding onto the idea. However, In fact is creating a strong statement to support the first sentence. It is phrased a bit weird, but it works, it would have made more snese if the question was:

In fact, a visitor of the library will find one of the original copies of the Gutenberg Bible, as well as first-edition copies of books by William Blake.

Hope this somewhat helped you and other readers out there also seeking the answer to this befuddling question. :3

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

I'm not too sure but the other parts in the story didn't seem like companionship to me, but in here the dog is helping the old man.
