Answer:

(1) Choosing A Number

1. 1 - For example 2. - In contrast 3. In addition

(2) Choosing words from each number

1. for example

2. however

3. Meanwhile

Step-by-step explanation:

To be honest, when looking into this those 2 up above are the best options I didn't know whether or not I was supposed to choose a number or choose a word from the numbers so I did both options. You can find an answer either way from it.
