Read the passage. (1) In 1751, the Philadelphia Provincial Assembly had a bell made. (2) It was for the new State House. (3) The

bell weighed more than 2,000 pounds. (4) The bell was 12 feet in circumference around the bottom. (5) It came to be known as the Liberty Bell because it was inscribed with a motto about liberty. (6) Unfortunately, the Liberty Bell cracked in 1752 during a test ring. (7) To fix the bell, the Philadelphia Assembly had it recast. (8) Some people say the bell cracked again in 1835. (9) It was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral. (10) However, that is probably just a legend. (11) It is a fact that on February 22, 1846, the bell cracked again. (12) That crack could not be fixed. (13) The Liberty Bell has had a crack in it ever since.
Which is the most effective way to combine sentences 8 and 9?


Cracked again in 1835, some people say while tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.

Although some people say the bell cracked again in 1835, it was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.

Some people say the bell cracked again in 1835 and was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.

Some people say the bell cracked again in 1835 while it was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.

<span>Some people say the bell cracked again in 1835 while it was tolling for John Marshall’s funeral.

John Marshall died in 1835, and it is said the bell tolled for his funeral. Using "while" as the conjunction in this sentence makes the sentence the clearest. If the bell cracked during an important funeral it would be more likely to become a legend rather than having the events of the funeral and the cracking happening at separate times. </span>
