UPTET Paper 1 Model Test 5

Concept:The word "although" is a subordinating conjunction. It already shows contrast. Do not use "but" after it. Use only one conjunction per contrasting idea.Explanation:Option A uses both "although" and "but" together. This is wrong because it repeats the contrast. Option B correctly uses only "although" and a comma to connect the clauses. Option C has "although but" together, which is grammatically incorrect. Option D uses "although being tired" – this is a poor structure and also adds "but". The correct way is: "Although + clause, main clause." Option B follows this rule perfectly.Answer:Option B: Although he was tired, he continued working.
