A. Sadly,
B. However,
C. At the beginning,
D. In other words,
E. To Conclude

Answer 1

B. However, is the correct answer.

Answer 2

Your answer would be B, however, as conjunctions have different uses. One of the uses of however is when it is followed by an adjective or an adverb. These constructions are used to emphasize that the degree or extent of something cannot change a situation. Therefore, the sentence would be as follows:

(8) However juxtaposed against all the suffering and hatred amongst the peole and within society in the final, and ultimate, sacrificial act of Sidney Carton.
