Question

7 choose the answer that best completes the sentence below.
______ jorge leaves the observatory, he grabs his backpack.
a before
b for example
c currently
d instead of

Explanation:

The sentence describes a sequential action: grabbing a backpack happens first, then leaving the observatory. "Before" correctly establishes this time order. The other options do not fit: "For example" is for illustrations, "Currently" refers to ongoing action, and "Instead of" indicates a replacement, none of which match the logical sequence here.

Answer:
