Let me break it down for you, starting with:

A. That was when I realized my decision was final; but there was no turning back. Now, at first glance, this seems like a pretty good answer, right? Wrong, you don't need that "but" there, doesn't it seem a bit out of place? Now, I'm not saying this isn't something you can do, but it's not the best answer choice.

B. That was when I realized my decision was final; however, there was no turning back. "However" is a word that you usually don't see people use a lot. Now, to me, as someone who likes lengthy writing, I would choose this answer choice, but since it asks for the best answer choice, this one isn't the correct one.

C. That was when I realized my decision was final; also there was no turning back. Anyone with a brain can tell that this is obviously a wrong answer; you wouldn't just say, "Also, there was no turning back." in the middle of a sentence, it doesn't fit there.

D. That was when I realized my decision was final, and there was no turning back. Read this aloud, you can tell that it sounds and slides off the tongue nicer than the other three sentences.

D is the correct answer.

How do you think your experience might be similar and different to those people in Latin America and the Caribbean?

vichka [17]

Latin America, like much of the developing world, will have to face serious challenges in the current century. Environmental changes, persistent inequality, and increasing violence force millions of people throughout the region to live in a constant state of uncertainty. Hispanics are split on whether they think of themselves as a “typical American” or “very different from a typical American.” According to the survey, 49% of Hispanics say the former, while 44% say the latter. Latinos in the U.S. describe their identity in many ways, reflecting the diversity of origins in the Latino community, the immigrant experience and geography. Broadly, some Latinos use pan-ethnic terms such as “Hispanic” or “Latino” to describe their identity; some prefer their family’s Hispanic origin group; others use “American”. For Puerto Ricans, among those born on the island (or in another country outside the U.S.), 74% most often use the term “Puerto Rican” to describe themselves. Among Puerto Ricans born in the 50 states or D.C., just 42% do the same. Half (48%) of second-generation Hispanics most often describe themselves by their family’s Hispanic origin name. We can divide the environmental challenges into those that are already apparent and those that will become more so through the 21st C. (World Bank, 2016) Among the former, the most obvious one is the pollution that mars many cities in Latin America. In many cases, this results not so much from industry as from the massive concentration in 1-2 urban areas in each country. This pollution can be both airborne, and arguably more important, also originates in the underdevelopment of sanitation infrastructure. Half (48%) of Mexicans say they think of themselves as a typical American, while 46% say they think of themselves as very different from a typical American. Among South Americans in the U.S., those shares are 46% and 48%, respectively.
