Question

select the conjunction that best links the ideas below. i had already decided which video game to buy; xu wenwu, otherwise, was still browsing the aisles.

Explanation:

The sentence shows a contrast between "I" having decided and Xu Wenwu still browsing. The conjunction "however" is more appropriate for showing contrast. "Otherwise" implies a different condition or consequence, which doesn't fit here. So the correct conjunction should be "however" (assuming the task is to correct the conjunction; if it's a multiple - choice with options including "however", that's the best choice).

Answer:

The correct conjunction to replace "otherwise" is "however" (assuming the context is to find the appropriate contrast - showing conjunction. If there were options like A. however, B. otherwise, C. therefore, D. moreover, the answer would be A. however).
