Question

Fill in the blank with suitable word: I can't find my bag ________ Has anyone seen it?

• A. though
• B. as
• C. still
• D. nevertheless

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The sentence is:

"I can't find my bag ________ Has anyone seen it?"

The blank should be filled with a word that connects the two related statements naturally. The speaker cannot find the bag and is therefore asking whether anyone has seen it.

Let us examine each option:

Option (1): Though
"Though" is used to introduce a contrast between two ideas.
There is no contrast in the sentence, so this option is incorrect.

Option (2): As
"As" is generally used to mean "because" or "while".
It does not fit naturally between these two independent statements.

Option (3): Still
"Still" can be used as a sentence connector to introduce a follow-up statement or request despite the current situation.
The sentence becomes:
"I can't find my bag. Still, has anyone seen it?"
This is the most appropriate choice among the given options.

Option (4): Nevertheless
"Nevertheless" expresses contrast ("in spite of that").
Since the second sentence is a natural consequence of the first rather than a contrast, this option is not appropriate.

Therefore, the sentence correctly reads: \[ \boxed{\text{I can't find my bag. Still, has anyone seen it?}} \] Hence, the correct answer is Option (3) – Still.
