Read the paragraph.

(1) owning a pet is popular in the united states. (2) for example, an estimated 83 million people own dogs and about 95 million own cats. (3) however, only about twenty percent of people choose to adopt their pet from a shelter. (4) specifically, that’s about 3–4 million cats and dogs who are adopted each year from shelters. (5) finally, 6–8 million enter shelters.

which transition in the paragraph should be revised?

revise “for example” at the beginning of sentence 2.

revise “however” at the beginning of sentence 3.

revise “specifically” at the beginning of sentence 4.

revise “finally” at the beginning of sentence 5.

The correct answer is option D) Revise “finally” at the beginning of Sentence 5.

In this case, the author is writing about pets in the USA but it is not providing a chronological order for that. And the sentence connector "finally" is usually used when giving an order together with other connectors such as "first, second, finally".

Option A should not be revised as the sentence connector "for example" is providing evidence for the previous statement.

Option B is also correctly used in the sentence since the connector "however" is indicating a contradition between ownership of pets and how they are acquired.

Option C is also correctly placed in the sentence since the connector "specifically" is providing concrete examples of the previous sentence.

c) vampires in history and modern life.
