SAT Writing Practice 3 + Answer and Explanation
Wither , Weather , and Whither
Wither = (v.) become dry and shriveled = يذبل = يفقد الحيوية = يُذبل شيئًا، يُذوي شيئًا Weather = (n.) climate = الطقس Ex. 1-Flowers *wither* in hot *weather*. 🌺🌞 2-Evelyn forgot to water her houseplants and they withered. 3-Glenn's enthusiasm withered after ten years doing the same job. Simon and Janet's love withered as they began to understand the practicalities of running a home and raising children. 4-The intense heat from the sun withered the delicate seedlings. 5-The weather is nice today. 6-There was some weather earlier this week. Whither = (adv.) to where, to what place or state = حيثما = أين؟ = إلى أين؟ Ex. 1-*Whither* will Jo go for lunch? 🍣🍲 2-The decision when and whither to attack the enemy would be crucial. 3-Whither is the cook? 4-Whither is the ship sailing?

The correct answer is (A). The contrasting conjunction word “but” best describes the relationship between the ideas in this sentence. It was not normal for the author to travel and yet she went all the way to Paris. This transition word also works nicely with the transition phrase “and so” found later in the same sentence.
