Explicación:

Los conectores en inglés son palabras o expresiones que tienen la función de conectar dos o más ideas. En la parte escrita, es muy importante saber cómo unir dos ideas, cómo ordenar los párrafos a través de los conectores. Igual que en español usamos “sin embargo”, “no obstante”, “entonces”, “por consiguiente”, “de hecho”, “en realidad”, “por otro lado”, etc.

Son todos los que están resaltados. en el escrito de las respuestas.
