Explanation:

• A Conjunction is a grammatical element or word that is used to connect/link words, phrases, and clauses.

• There exist many conjunctions in the English language, but some common ones include and, or, but, because, for, if, and when, although, though etc.

• Three basic types of conjunctions are namely coordinating, subordinating, and correlative.

• Subordinating conjunction (because, although. until, if, when, while, before, after) is preferred to join an independent clause and a dependent clause.

• They occupy the position at the beginning of a sentence or in the middle when they begin another clause.

• Although is a subordinating conjunction and has the meaning "in spite of".

• It is used at the beginning of a subordinate clause and expresses that the action in the main clause is surprising, unusual, or unexpected.

• i.e. He went on working. (here) is the main clause that is surprising, unusual, or unexpected.

Thus the correct conjunction to be used in the blank would be "Although".
