The explanation is correct but the answer cannot be 'Likewise'. Likewise is not the option that fits the sentences. Check with it.

Question:

DIRECTIONS: Select the phrase/ connector from the given three options which can be used to form a single sentence from the two sentences given below, implying the same meaning as expressed the statement sentences. 


There are a number of first-generation learners in English who attend "English-medium" schools. But cannot construct grammatical sentences in English even after receiving education in the language for six or seven years.

(i) Seemingly…..

(ii) Likewise….

(iii) Altogether……

Options:
A)

Only (i)

B) Only (ii)
C) Only (iii)
D) Both (ii) and (iii)
E) None of the above
Solution:
Ans: (b) Only (ii) Likewise

Likewise means in the same way; also.

Synonyms: similarly, correspondingly, in the same way, in like manner, in similar fashion.

Examples:

The programmes of study will apply from five years of age, likewise the attainment targets.

We hope you will continue to support the Society, and encourage your family and friends to do likewise.
