Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. although it is urgent.
- In the context of the sentence, "although it is urgent" might be problematic because it introduces a contrast that doesn’t relate to the main idea.
- The phrase implies a contradiction without adequately linking to why the discussion cannot be postponed despite its urgency.
- A more fitting choice would be "even though it is urgent" to convey that the urgency does not change the decision to postpone the discussion.
