B) however is the answer
yarga [219]3 years ago

Answer:

The desk was covered with books, the rug was littered with games, and the bed was covered with clothes; <u>however</u>, Sam claimed that his room was not messy.

Explanation:

Transitional words are used to link ideas in a sentence, paragraph, or a text. As the name suggests, they help the speaker/author transition from one idea to another smoothly, even if the ideas are different or opposite.

In the sentence we are studying here, the writer describes a room that is clearly messy to most people's standards. Books, games, and books are carelessly tossed all around. It would be only natural for Sam to agree that the room is far from being neat. However, he does not. We need "however" to make this transition because it connects opposing ideas. The other options, "therefore", "while", and "finally" would not convey this discrepancy between Sam's opinion and reality.

Ann [662]
The Americans stopped attacking the British outside of Philadelphia after they retreated for the first time because of the weather.
It was winter, and whereas the British were warm and cozy, whereas those Americans who still wanted to fight were frozen and deprived of food and resources. Thus they decided to wait until the weather cleared and then attack their enemies.
