The winter solstice is again upon the Northern Hemisphere, and though the year's shortest day heralds the onset of winter it also promises the gradual return of the sun after a prolonged period of darkness.
That there are holidays at the time of this astronomical event is no coincidence. Since ancient times, people have celebrated the solstice and observed it with many different cultural and religious traditions. Some of them survive to the present day—though not always in the form you might expect.
Answer:
Better transition of the sentence is:
Option B: When we got to our campground, it was only mid-morning, but the campsites were already filling up fast.
Explanation:
Option B clearly explains that it was mid morning when they reached the campground but campsites were filling up fast.
Option A is incorrect as it says that people were trying to grab campsites when they reached. Option C says that they should have left earlier, so it is incorrect. Option D also doesn't mention about the early filling up of the camp. Thus, of all the options, the better transition will be statement B.
I will give you some comfort in this difficult time.
If the underlined word in the sentence is COMFORT. Then, its synonym is SOLACE.
