Transitions are words that exhibit relevance between paragraphs and/or phrases. Their aim is to enhance the comprehensiveness of the idea being discussed by connecting two points. Imagine transitions working as that of a bridge.  

In the third sentence of the respective paragraph, the best transition to use can be selected by the process of logical elimination.  

Although is most commonly used as a contradictory transition to an event or happening which has a specific outcome that is believed to be conventionally true. For example, “Although the sun was out, it was not warm”, refers to how despite sun being out and its conventionally true outcome being increase in temperature, yet that was not the case. This introduces an element of surprise, because of something not happening as it usually would. Thus, Although would not be the best transition to use in this case.

Conversely is a transition mostly used at the beginning of a sentence that is used to reverse or flip the statement that is made prior to the use of the transition itself. For example, “Conversely, if you do not exercise much, you are prone to grow weak.” Therefore, not a suitable option as well in the given case.  

In conclusion is used to summarize all the points that have been previously mentioned. It is not used when you are making an additional point as in the given paragraph. For example, “In conclusion, learning extra soft skills helped him in his life.” Hence it is also not the right option.  

In addition is used when there are more points being added for the support of your idea or notion. For example, “”As seen is the case here. Therefore, In-addition, is the right choice in the given paragraph.

Andrej [43]
This detail exemplifies the larger theme of the futility of human efforts to dominate nature.
The entire novel revolves around that theme - whether Ahab as a human is capable of dominating Moby Dic, which is a whale and thus a representative of nature. Nature seems to be winning constantly and humans are ultimately unable to conquer it because nature is unconquerable. <span />

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

As soon as Shiro saw his master he ran to meet him, wagging his tail, and, seizing the end of his kimono, dragged him under a large yenoki tree.

Llana [10]

Answer and Explanation:

African countries have been extremely exploited and devalued by European nations and other nations considered to be world potentials. This exploitation has enabled African nations to become small, poor and often unskilled, which increases not only their problems, but also their devaluation around the world. Civilian governments have not been effective in solving these problems, which shows us that these governments are a flawed investment with no positive results, which need to be quickly changed by disciplined, rigid and imposing military governments, capable of bringing about real national changes.
