Squeaky's mother wants her to participate in the May
Pole dancing_____,Squeaky only wants to run in
the fifty-yard dash
in addition
because
therefore
Answer:
A. however
Explanation:
This question refers to Toni Cade Bambara's short story "Raymond's Run".
Squeaky is the protagonist and the narrator of the story and she's also a runner.
May Day races approach and Squeaky wants to run her favorite race, 50-yard dash. On the other hand, her mother also wants her to participate in May Pole dancing, but Squeaky thinks that's stupid.
We clearly see two opposing views, Squeaky's and her mother's. If we want to write them both in the same sentence, we need to use a conjunction that expresses opposition.
Looking at the given options, only "however" meets the criterion.

Which two sentences support Abraham Lincoln’s claim that his presidency was not a threat to the Southern states?
Apprehension seems to exist among the people of the Southern States that by the accession of a Republican Administration their property and their peace and personal security are to be endangered. There has never been any reasonable cause for such apprehension. Indeed, the amplest evidence to the contrary has all the while existed and been open to their inspection. It is found in nearly all the published speeches of him who now addresses you. I do but quote from one of those speeches when I declare that–
I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so.
