Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

He has a high paying job, ______________ he never seems to have any money.

yet

The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is yet.

The sentence is about how someone has a high paying job, but they never seem to have any money. The word "yet" is used to introduce a contrast or contradiction. This is the most appropriate word because it accurately describes how someone can have a high paying job and still not have any money.

The other options are not as appropriate.

• By means "through the agency of." This does not make sense in the context of the sentence, because the person's high paying job is not the cause of them not having any money.
• From means "originating in or coming from." This does not make sense in the context of the sentence, because the person's high paying job is not the source of their lack of money.
• So means "for that reason." This does not make sense in the context of the sentence, because the person's high paying job is not the reason they don't have any money.
