Fill in the blank with suitable connector :
We lost the key. We had, __________ to break the lock open.
Answer: C
The answer is therefore: We lost the key. We had, therefore, to break the lock open.
The second sentence states the consequence of the first, so it needs a connector of result. Therefore, set off by commas in the middle of the sentence, means 'for that reason'.
Still signals contrast or continuation, which does not fit. For introduces a reason, so it would wrongly make breaking the lock the cause of losing the key. Since therefore fits, 'None of these' is wrong.
