I believe the answer is D (However) because C (Therefore) would not make sense as it means ‘for that reason’ or ‘consequently’, B (Then) is a time connective so that would not make sense as a transition word to connect the paragraph, and A (now) could be referred to as informal depending on how you use it, and it is commonly used as an adverb of time.

Answer:
High expectations to be put upon you.
Explanation:
I think that having high expectations to be put on you is lighter that having a disadvantage and having to work hard because depending on what it is you're doing, you probably won't have to necessarily meet the high expectations but that doesn't mean that you will be looked down upon. You will still probably have many chances to prove yourself and be enough, whereas to having a disadvantage, depending on what the disadvantage is, there will be lots of work and having that disadvantage doesn't help in any way and you probably won't have the opportunity to change.
