Here we have 2 sentences and we need a conjunction to connect these sentences. The use of ‘even’ is not correct here as it is an adverb and we have to replace it with a conjunction for making the sentence grammatically correct. |
As 1st sentence is positive and 2nd is negative, we need to use contradictory conjunction. ALTHOUGH is such a type of conjunction and this will make the sentence grammatically correct. The correct sentence will be: Although Sharat tried his best, he could not clear all the examination papers in one attempt. Hence, the chosen option is correct. |
