Hello,
I'm from Jordan. In our English exam we had a question that's been causing some controversy in the country, most teachers are saying it's wrong while the Ministry of Education is claiming it's correct and valid.
Question :
Use the right word or phrase in the box below in each pair of sentences to make only one meaningful sentence from each pair.
The box : and although, instead of, on the other hand.
Q: Students do not enjoy their independence. Leaving home for the first time can be difficult for some students.
The MOE is claiming that "on the other hand" is the right answer and that there is nothing wrong with the question. Some teachers agree while others don't. I Consider myself relatively decent in English and as far as I know the phrase "on the other hand" can't be used in this sentence.
Thanks for your time.
