Question

Which of the following passages does not include an appropriate transition between two sentences?

A. Thousands of years ago, humans started farming for the first time. As a result, human societies grew larger than ever before.

B. Humans first began planting crops during the Neolithic Revolution. In addition, they also began domesticating animals.

C. Neolithic humans domesticated animals to help themselves survive. For example, domesticated cows provided them with milk to drink.

D. The Neolithic Revolution was an extremely important event. The Neolithic Revolution happened thousands of years ago.

Answer 1

With the exception of the last sentence, all sentences are fluidly written and clearly connected between each other. In the case of the last example, the lack of transitional phrases between the two sentences creates a disconnection between the concepts expressed. While we might still be able to understand these sentences, we need to make the transition happen for ourselves as it was not included in the example.

Therefore, your best answer is option D.

Answer 2

The Neolithic Revolution was an extremely important event. The Neolithic Revolution Happened thousands of years ago. (APEX)
