Read the following sentence and answer the question that follows. mr. matthews' living room was filled with paintings, photographs, and knickknacks from the philippines. he had never been to the philippines and couldn't explain to visitors the reason why he was so fascinated with the place. which word best completes the passage above?

The most fitting word to use in this writing is "Strangely".  And the reason is that the two sentences have a contrary meaning And the word that help us to make a contrast between these sentences is the word "Strangely". He has never been in the place but Strangely he is really fascinated about it.

The options are the following:

Ideally

Because

Naturally

Strangely

Strangely  

Explanation:

The adverb “Strangely” introduces an idea that is different from what is expected, usual or ordinary. This word is the one that best fills in the blank because by reading the first sentence, one could infer that Mr. Matthew has been to the Philippines, but the second sentence reveals that he has never been there. “Strangely,” then, is perfect to introduce this new information.

never read it so if i had i would definitely you sorry.

that is true because that is something they fulfill for their work.
