__________, if the referee points his fingers, this indicates that someone has done something wrong.
Options
- AOn the contrary
- BWhatever more
- CBriefly
- DAs regards
Correct answer
C. Briefly
Step-by-step solution
The discourse marker 'Briefly' is used to introduce a concise explanation or summary. In the given sentence, it appropriately introduces a short explanation of a referee's action. 'On the contrary' requires a preceding contrasting statement. 'As regards' must be followed by a noun phrase to introduce a topic. 'Whatever more' is grammatically incorrect in this context.
Thus, 'Briefly' is the most appropriate choice to complete the sentence.
