What is the role of the word "then" as per the provided context?

  1. It introduces a condition

  2. It signifies an effect

  3. It serves as a consequence

  4. It is unrelated to the sentence

The correct answer is: It signifies an effect

In this context, the word "then" signifies an effect. It indicates that something will happen as a result of the action or event mentioned before it. In this way, it serves to show a sequence of events or actions, with the second action being a direct result of the first one. This makes choice B the most fitting description of the role of "then" in this sentence. The other options are not as suitable in this context: - A. It introduces a condition: The word "then" in this sentence does not introduce a condition but rather shows a sequence of events. - C. It serves as a consequence: While the word "then" does indicate a result, it is more about showing an effect rather than a consequence. - D. It is unrelated to the sentence: This is incorrect as the word "then" plays a clear role in showing the relationship between actions in the sentence.
