____, the class had to do three sets of sit-ups, two sets of pull-ups, and then run another two miles. Which word or phrase would most logically connect these two sentences together?
A) However,
B) Because
C) In addition,
D) Consequently,
The phrase that connects the sentences above is "in addition".
Explanation:
"In addition" is used for adding an extra piece of information to what has already been said or written. In the sentence above, the first part describes what the coach made these people do. Then, the second part adds more information as regards the class. Therefore, <em>in addition </em>is the correct option. <em> Because</em> is used to introduce the cause of something, the reason. <em>However </em>is used to introduce a statement that contrasts with or seems to contradict something that has already been said. Finally, <em>consequently </em>is used as <em>therefore </em>to introduce the result of an action.
