Thank you We sneak and here's your shmoop du jour

00:05

Brought to you by science teachers You know what their

00:08

favorite kind of dog is right The lab obviously choose

00:13

the word that contrast the two parts of the sentence

00:16

Energetic Cassidy always wanted to be an engineer blank her

00:19

twin madison secretly thought she would be better off as

00:23

a science teacher and hear the potential answers Well cassidy

00:29

wants to be making engineer money The big money Yeah

00:32

but her sister madison thinks she should be making a

00:35

science teacher kind of money G thanks a lot So

00:38

what word should we squeeze in between these two thoughts

00:41

to create a contrast Well remember when we show a

00:44

contrast were shown how to things are different or at

00:47

odds with one another Like you might say that the

00:50

water in a hot tub is hot You could contrast

00:54

that with the water in an ice bath which would

00:57

be considerably colder We'll take the hot tub for us

01:01

Thank you very much All right onto our answer joyce

01:03

is would it make sense to fit the word And

01:06

in here now and it's Just a word we use

01:09

To show that to separate things air both true there

01:12

are breakable things in the lab and dogs aren't allowed

01:16

in here since those two statements make sense together There

01:19

really isn't a contrast so we're barking up the wrong

01:22

tree be what about so well that gets the job

01:26

done Well we usually use so to show how one

01:28

thing leads to another One of the dogs broke a

01:31

flask so his owner had to pay for it both

01:34

at him still go together so we're looking for a

01:36

contrast option D four well in this instance four would

01:41

mean the same thing as because like we might say

01:45

the man decided he would never bring his dog back

01:47

to the lab for he couldn't afford to pay for

01:50

any more broken equipment Wait one more shot at distinct

01:54

fortunately the word but will definitely fit here but is

01:58

a big contrast word because it shows that two things

02:02

are not in agreement In our example Cassidy things one

02:05

thing but her sister thinks something else So option a

02:09

czar answer We've learned a lot from this video but

02:12

mostly we've learned that there's a right in a wrong

place to walk your dog I
