پاسخ صحیح: گزینهٔ C — Whereas
پاسخ تشریحی
Answer: option 3 — Whereas introduces a contrast clause (بند تقابلی): atmospheric storms develop quickly and last days, whereas magnetic tempests develop over decades and last centuries.
- (1) While,: while alone could express the same contrast, but the comma printed immediately after it incorrectly separates the conjunction from its clause.
- (2) In spite of: is a preposition requiring a noun phrase or an -ing form, not the finite clause atmospheric storms arise ....
- (4) Nevertheless: is a conjunctive adverb, not a subordinator; it cannot turn the first clause into a dependent clause or join the two clauses with only the printed comma.
Exam trick: Check punctuation as well as meaning: whereas/while + subject + verb, with no comma immediately after the conjunction.
