Arkansas aviator Louise Thaden was already a record breaker when she won the inaugural National Women’s Air Derby, a race

Question

Arkansas aviator Louise Thaden was already a record breaker when she won the inaugural National Women’s Air Derby, a race from California to Ohio, in August of 1929. blank in December of 1928, Thaden had set an aviation record when she reached an altitude of 20,269 feet in a Travel Air biplane.

Which choice completes the text with the most logical transition?

Accepted Answer

Choice A is the best answer. This choice uses a transition that indies a shift back in time. Since the first sentence talks about Thaden&rsquo;s race win in 1929 and the second shifts back to talking about her record in 1928, this makes the most sense here. Choice B is incorrect. This choice uses a disagreement transition. But this sentence actually agrees with and expands on the previous sentence by describing the earlier record that Thaden had "already" held. Choice C is incorrect. This choice uses a transition that indies a shift forward in time, which doesn&rsquo;t make sense here. A record in 1928 didn&rsquo;t come after Thaden&rsquo;s race win in 1929. Choice D is incorrect. This choice uses a cause-and-effect transition, which doesn&rsquo;t make sense in this context-an event in 1929 can&rsquo;t cause something in 1928.
