GED Language Arts Rla Question of the Day

Practice GED Language Arts Rla with the production-style question-of-the-day selection for this public URL.

Question 1

Writers often anthropomorphize or personify animals in literature;  , Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book (1894) ascribes human characteristics to a variety of wild animals.

  1. for example
  2. nevertheless
  3. firstly
  4. simultaneously
  5. thus
Explanation: The second half of this sentence introduces an example to support the claim in the first half of the sentence. “For example” is therefore the best transition word to segue between these two parts of the sentence. (“Nevertheless” implies contrast, “simultaneously” implies something happening at the same moment in time, “firstly” implies a sequence of examples instead of just one, and “thus” implies conclusion.)
