Question

___________ he is good at solving problems, he cannot find a solution to his personal problem.

• A. Despite
• B. Since
• C. Yet
• D. Although

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Although

• Although is a subordinating conjunction used to express contrast between two ideas.

• Here, the contrast is that he is good at solving problems, but he cannot solve his own personal problem.

• Although + subject + verb is the correct grammatical structure.

Why the other options are incorrect:

• Despite — Must be followed by a noun, pronoun, or gerund, not directly by a subject and verb.

• Since — Usually indicates a reason or time.

• Yet — Expresses contrast but does not fit naturally at the beginning in this sentence structure.
