    The ancient city of Harappa was heavily damaged under British rule. The bricks from the ruins were used in the construction of the Lahore–Multan Railway.

    1. When bricks from

    2. But the bricks from

    3. Whereas bricks from

    Solution

    The phrase which we should choose to connect the sentences is Only 1.

    The sentence after using the phrase is: The ancient city of Harappa was heavily damaged under British rule when bricks from the ruins were used in the construction of the Lahore–Multan Railway.

    • 'When' means 'at or during the time that'. So the phrase 'When bricks from' would appropriately connect the sentences.
    • The word 'but' is used to connect the sentences which contrast each other. Clearly, the phrase cannot form a meaningful sentence.
    • The word 'whereas' means 'in contrast with'. So, the phrase is inappropriate for the given sentences.
