In sentence 3, select the transition that best fits the blank.
in the past
in the future
tomorrow
yesterday

Answer 1

[|] Answer [|]

`\boxed{In \ the \ past}`

[|] Explanation [|]

Sentence 3: But, unfortunately that was _________.

Best Fit: In The Past

The word "Was" helps us determine the correct transition for sentence three. The word "Was" means it has already happened.

Knowing this, the proper transition would be "In the past."

In the future, tomorrow and yesterday do not correctly fit the blank space. They would not make sense, and they would also be grammatically incorrect.

`\boxed]`

Answer 2

A. In the past

Hope this helps!
