Correct Answer: Even though


Solution : The third option is the correct answer since ' 'even though'' conveys the meaning that despite the fact that Anita can't drive, she has bought a car, emphasising the contrast.

The option ''since'' in the sentence can mean ''because of" ''even if'' is used to introduce a hypothetical condition and ' 'whether or not'' is used to present alternatives, all of which don't fit contextually.

Therefore, the complete sentence is " Even though she can't drive, Anita has bought a car".
