Which choice best combines the two sentences: 'The lecture was long. It kept everyone's attention.'?
a.The lecture was long, it kept everyone's attention.
b.The lecture was long because it kept everyone's attention.
c.The lecture was long everyone's attention.
d.Although the lecture was long, it kept everyone's attention.
Explicación
'Although' signals the contrast between the lecture being long yet still engaging. It joins the clauses smoothly while showing their relationship. The comma-only version is a splice, and using 'because' reverses the logic.
