Choose the sentence that is not logically connected in the paragraph.

The other island is called Big Diomede, and it belongs to Russia. (3) These two islands are only three miles apart. (4) Therefore, fishing is the major industry.

Answer:

The sentence that does not belong would be (4) Therefore, fishing is the major industry.

The answer is 4 because all of the other sentences talk about the islands and this one talks about fishing.

Hope this helps ;)

Answer:

(4) Therefore, fishing is the major industry.

Step-by-step explanation:

You would need to have a transition before this sentence; you cannot just include it at random, because you did not mention fishing anywhere in the entire paragraph.
