Rule reminder
At B2 level, connectives must be chosen not only for local sentence-level logic but for global text coherence. Consider: the overall argumentative direction, the register of the text, the connective's position, and whether the logical relationship between clauses has been correctly identified. This exercise tests all skills practised in this topic.
Identify the connective that makes the following sentence logically incorrect: 'Il candidato è altamente qualificato; pertanto, il comitato ha deciso di non assumerlo.'
