Question: *Write the correct signal word on the blank.*
Sentence:
God created the world. ________ there was light. Next, he made a dome to separate the ocean. Then, he made vegetation. Last, He created humans to take care everything.
Answer: Then
Explanation:
We are looking for a signal word that fits logically between “God created the world” and “there was light.” The sentence follows a chronological order:
- God created the world →
Then there was light → Next... → Then... → Last...
So, the correct signal word is
"Then", as it shows the next step after creation.
>
✔ Correct sentence:
> God created the world.
Then there was light. Next, he made a dome to separate the ocean. Then, he made vegetation. Last, He created humans to take care of everything.
*(Note: There's a small grammar error in the original — "take care everything" should be "take care of everything.")*
