(AI giải đề cho tôi)
Câu 37: Câu trước là 'She is allowed to keep the games after testing them', câu sau là 'she has decided INSTEAD to give them away' – hai mệnh đề tương phản, cần trạng từ liên kết 'However' đứng đầu câu, theo sau là dấu phẩy. 'Although' (B) là liên từ phụ thuộc cần nối hai mệnh đề trong cùng một câu; 'Otherwise' (C) nghĩa là 'nếu không thì'; 'Moreover' (D) nghĩa là 'hơn nữa' (bổ sung), đều không phù hợp. Đáp án A khớp đáp án nguồn (trang 6: 37. A).
