Answer 1

The best choice for a transition word or phrase to show how the ideas are connected in the context given is "eventually."

So the revised sentences would read:

"Mike kept begging his parents for a cell phone. Eventually, they agreed he could use his allowance to buy one."

This shows that after a period of begging, they finally agreed.
